If we can find ways for men inside the spectrum to hook up with women outside the spectrum, that may help in the long run.

There is an extensive literature on this topic, and a community devoted to educating people about it.

Speaking as someone on the autism spectrum: go to hell.

Ridiculously mild as mild Asperger's is compared to full blown autism, it has had a large mostly negative effect on my life. Even so, I wouldn't change take a pill to get rid of it. I am what I am, and there are coping strategies and niches aplenty.

Also, as a nerd hater, what are you doing on this site?
