"Why is there so much bad spelling and grammar on this site? Does swinging attract more unintelligent people? I’d like to meet a single woman or couple who can spell." Well my degree is in Maths, not English so can I be excused if my spelling is not 100%? | |||

"Why is there so much bad spelling and grammar on this site? Does swinging attract more unintelligent people? I’d like to meet a single woman or couple who can spell." Spelling prowess doesn't indicate intelligence.... Many intelligent people couldn't spell for shit, many had dyslexia. Don't get too hung up on spelling... It's just once aspect of a whole person. Tends not to have any correlation on how well they fuck either | |||

"Why is there so much bad spelling and grammar on this site? Does swinging attract more unintelligent people? I’d like to meet a single woman or couple who can spell." I don’t think swinging attracts more unintelligent people, as bad spelling & grammar is poor everywhere these days, I scroll through my Facebook and the majority of people posting can’t spell! I am automatically put off when someone types in text speak or has poor spelling/grammar. Snobby it may be, but I can’t help it! | |||

"I rate literacy highly, I find it a turn on and very attractive.

You can usuallly tell when someone has put no effort into their message, and when someone has just made a couple of mistakes. There’s a difference. | |||

"Why is there so much bad spelling and grammar on this site? Does swinging attract more unintelligent people? I’d like to meet a single woman or couple who can spell." I totally agree, it does not take much time to ensure correct spelling and punctuation, before sending a message. I also detest text speak as it takes me too long to work out the meaning of the message.. I may add I am dyslexic and work hard to ensure I spell correctly.. | |||

I commented something like, "a couple of full stops would have been nice." Her friends were like, "how dare you criticise my friend!" etc and these few women were basically ganging up on me. Ridiculous. You think it's appropriate to publicly shame her then? Publicly shame her? I hardly shared her dirty secrets on Facebook. People get offended WAY too easily. You could argue she publicly shamed herself with her appalling grammar. " You're 38, surely you know women have an in-group bias? | |||

"Why is there so much bad spelling and grammar on this site? Does swinging attract more unintelligent people? I’d like to meet a single woman or couple who can spell." Just like in the real world I guess. I personally think with the use of the internet poor spelling and lack of grammar is just more noticeable. Its not like when your in a pub you ask the person your chatting up to write you a quick synopsis of what they like and are looking for. Plus some of us are dyslexic or have learning difficulties that you can't see. I can honestly say that no one has ever got me into bed by being grammaticaly correct or being able to spell. It does serve as a good indicator of who won't though,people who bitch about spelling and grammar certainly won't. | |||

"Why is there so much bad spelling and grammar on this site? Does swinging attract more unintelligent people? I’d like to meet a single woman or couple who can spell." I haven’t read the whole thread, but why do you think people who are bad at spelling and grammar are ‘unintelligible’? There’s a big difference between someone who’s too lazy to bother, than someone who makes the odd typo and/or has a learning difficulty, i.e. dyslexia. I make the odd typo, but my daily sex doesn’t always allow me to recognise it, even after proofreading it several times over. What does show laziness is text speak. | |||

"Why is there so much bad spelling and grammar on this site? Does swinging attract more unintelligent people? I’d like to meet a single woman or couple who can spell." It's a mixture. Grammar is down to the individual, however spelling is a lot to do with using a tiny phone keyboard plus abysmal auto correct and never proof reading because it isn't that important. Then the rest is just poor spelling, normally obvious which.Their and there isn't a typo, becos isnt a typo, diswstbliabment looks bad but could easily be. | |||

Spelling prowess doesn't indicate intelligence.... Many intelligent people couldn't spell for shit, many had dyslexia. Don't get too hung up on spelling... It's just once aspect of a whole person. Tends not to have any correlation on how well they fuck either " Dyslexia rules ko | |||

"I used both because it is both a question and I’m also surprised by it. See definitions below. And please refer to the term mentioned by above poster regarding ‘...’ Question Mark [?] Use a question mark at the end of a sentence to show a direct question. ... Exclamation Mark [!] Use an exclamation mark at the end of a sentence to show surprise or excitement. ... You’re welcome " A question mark and an exclamation mark both contain a full stop. They are both therefore the end of a sentence. To use them both one after the other is poor grammar. I love that you're now making up your own grammatical rules to defend your own poor use of it. | |||
