yes, i think perhaps i was unclear; i was never seriously suggesting that i have all these disorders, only that it would be possible to diagnose me with them if i was to be incarcerated in a mental institution by a corrupt state.
the point about asexuality is an interesting one that i had not considered before, thank you. the pinko liberal in me is certain that more and more implicit prejudice will be discovered and obliterated in such things as the DSM:IV as society becomes more liberal and accepting. of course, to someone with the opposite viewpoint to me, this is just more and more damaging/abnormal things being considered as "healthy" because of the liberalisation of society, so meh.
