"Quite frequently in the forums the one thing puts people [of]off others is people with bad spelling and grammar. So why does this make people useless at sex? As this is a adult site not a English exam. My first thought would be and just like me. People may have spelling problems like dyslexia and people who don't think this way should be ashamed! What do you fabbers think? " Most on the site use mobiles and predictive text, it's a curse. People type too quick and do not read posts back, by the time they have the moment has gone "Guilty" Spelling is often the wrong word correct spelling. If your a kindle fan and you download a lot of free books, usually the spelling and grammar is atrocious. Text speak is awful worse if the person talks the same way as they text. | |||

"Spelling or bad gramme isn't a turn off.. At least in my opinion. I do feel that good spelling at the very least show that there is some intelligence. " Just because some people have had a good education, and can read and write properly, it doesn't necessarily make them intelligent | |||

"If your first impression of someone is that they can't even be bothered to write a coherent sentence....or are too lazy to write properly...then its a fail. Why even respond to someone who isn't even trying?" Because it may be that they are dyslexic, they may have not spellchecked, there may have been an autocorrect, or they genuinely may not know. It doesn’t reflect on them as a person imo. | |||

"Fun face the brain only reads the first and last letter off ever word I cnduo't bvleiee taht I culod aulaclty uesdtannrd waht I was rdnaieg. Unisg the icndeblire pweor of the hmuan mnid, aocdcrnig to rseecrah at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mttaer in waht oderr the lterets in a wrod are, the olny irpoamtnt tihng is taht the frsit and lsat ltteer be in the rhgit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it whoutit a pboerlm. Tihs is bucseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey ltteer by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Aaznmig, huh? Yaeh and I awlyas tghhuot slelinpg was ipmorantt! See if yuor fdreins can raed tihs too." There’s some truth to that but it misses the main points. The way we are taught to read as children Is flawed and inefficient for adult life , reading every letter of every word left to right is slow and hard work, it’s much better to keep your eyes still and learn to scan whole paragraphs for 1-2 seconds then moves both eyes down you can a full page in 10-15 seconds quite easily . If you use special cardboard templates over text to hide words you can read well seeing about one in every 5 or 6 words. You can read much faster and when your brain has less info abd has work to do, because brain is like muscle , you exercise it by hiding or ignoring words or misspelling them - not only can you read faster but will retain and understand much more. | |||

Yes definitely I am dyslexic and what your talking about the hidden off letters and such was a think that they had me do they had to untrain my head for what I was teached in schools and train it to read in another way and this is the exact way | |||

"It doesn't make people useless at sex, far from it. It's just another way for people to decide actually, yeah, I really want to fuck Bob because he can wistfully witter on about wanking without wrong interpretations. It's like some people will see a photo and think, nah, I don't want to have sex with that fat bird. Fair enough, you do you. For the most part I overlook grammatical errors, spelling mistakes because fuck knows I make them on here. When I'm in a savage, pretentious mood (my period) I'm more likely to be a bit scathing of a "wont 2 suk dis?". " Ys plz. | |||

It must have taken you ages to type that, unless you lifted it from somewhere else!!! | |||

It doesn’t reflect on them as a person imo." Surely it does reflect though? It reflects on communication ability - which is how a connection which leads to chemistry might be established. I agree it should not be used to entirely write someone off - but as has been said many times here - people have preferences and that’s their choice and right. Rightly is wrongly “spellins” are a part of that preference pick and mix for some. Also think that the converse is true. I’d wager that there are some would would read this wordy response and give the poster a swerve on “wow, you must be fin at parties” which is their prerogative and no sh1ts will be given Dyslexia I think might explain some. But it can only excuse letter arrangement and maybe word order. Can’t excuse writing complete gibberish can it? | |||

"Theres a difference between difficulty with, and laziness, I guess one gets mistaken for the other, sometimes, I am guilty of this. If I feel its laziness, I kinda think its an attitude that doesn't turn me on, so I steer clear." I have amazing respect for you to be the one, saying you are guilty of this. Thankyou. Much appreciated xx | |||

"I'm dyslexic. If the odd spelling or grammar error puts someone off me then so be it. A pet hate of mine is people who use spelling or grammar corrections to discredit someones point without actually countering the point in any way. Its just lazy and shitty. By all means be quietly annoyed by spelling and grammar errors but the superiority complex some have over mastering primary school level English without any learning disability or language barrier is astounding.

Exactly for the reason you describe, could be dyslexic or have any other hidden disability or condition. | |||
