Accessional diary of a dyslexic dom.

Any old nonsence that comes into my head.

Message I received last night from someone on a different site: 

 

When you learn how to spell, then you can classify yourself dominant. Until then no offence but females won’t take you seriously. 

 

If I have not mentioned it before I suffer from a condition called dyslexia, which means, amongst other things, that my spelling is not too good. I spell check everything and there is not much ells that I can do.

 

Would you all agree with me that there is no need for unpleasantness like that. A simple no thanks would cover it. Also what is the point in saying no offence but, when you are obviously being very offensive.

 

Still, as someone said to me, on a similar accession in the past; at least I didn't meat her in real life. That would really have been hideous.

HGB​(sub female){Scottish M} - Not to mention your English is United Kingdom. Fuck them

ropefish - Don't be discouraged. They were just doing you the courtesy of letting you know that they probably aren't a good fit for you. They clearly have some learning and growing to do, as they aren't currently able to see from perspectives outside of their own.

Justme26 - But what if my spelling does put girls off? Humm.

ropefish - Lumping all 'girls' into one huge generalized pile isn't realistic. *People* are all individuals, with different likes and dislikes. There are going to be some *people* - gender irrelevant - who are put off by your spelling. That's fine. They aren't a good match for you. And there are going to be some that don't care. Probably some who also have dyslexia and can relate to you, too.

Sub Learning​(sub female){Not lookin} - I'm dyslexic as well. I found out when I was 7. Almost 40 years ago now. Lol. I spell check everything all the time. My poor boss thinks I'm taking to her when I'm writing a report for her because I'm always speaking into my phone to make sure that I spell everything right. Lol. Master says he can tell when my anxiety is up by my text messages. He knows that he has to quiet my mind and does. Don't let the small mind of one person discourage you. If she was the right person for you she would help you with it not put you down for it like Master does for me. Chin up, your mate is out there.

SchrodingersDinosaur​(switch female) - Hey Justme, I saw this entry just before logging off last night and just got back in now. It felt important to do so expediently. I have not read through any other comments yet, but I'm hoping my community already said the exact same things I'm going to.

I suppose Henna might be seen as one of those grammar police types. It's true, I do love language and prefer to see it used so that the message a person is trying to communicate is accurately conveyed and easily understood. HOWEVER, this is your fucking blog!!! You use it as you need, difficulty spelling and all. And in your responses to Forums and other person's blogs you are trying you help, anyone that faults you for that is a douche. So sayeth the Henna, dammit.

Couple of other quick, okay sorta quick (hey, it's me, I'm doing the best I can…) comments...first, the person that came into your space insulting you wasn't worth listening to. They were partially correct though, there are people that won't respect you as a Dominant because you don't spell well, but you wanna know a secret? Those folks wouldn't be worth having a submissive anyway! There are decent people that may look past you because of the way you write but as long as they are considerate and not rude there is nothing any more wrong in wanting a particular communication ability as a preference than there is to wanting a sadist or a daddy. Sapiosexuality is real, and for many that may includes the written word.

Finally, I and others have made mention of our preferences in regards to communication. But those preferences, for me and probably most of us, aren't meant as disparagement against folks with challenges, say dyslexia or English not being a primary language for them, or a requirement to recheck and edit every little thing written by everyone.

Rather it's the laziness of some folks that bothers us, I think, when a person can do better and chooses not to repeatedly. Makes it seem as though I am not important enough to care whether or not I get their message as intended, or our Lifestyle just isn't taken seriously at all, especially with those that don't bother with the commonly used terminology for people and ideas. Might not be a true assessment, but that's the perception.

Please don't let anyone shut you down though, Justme. You have important things to say. Okay, I sit down now. Henna out...

Justme26 - OK, thanks everyone, some very good points there. Hanna, I see what you mean, it just ps me off because, well if I was in a wheal chair would people think I was just being lazy? (actually some wood). I must admit I get irritated sometimes with people who make obvious mistakes, when they do not even have a problem with spelling, and they might just be having a bad day so. . . (As you said I suppose it's when they do it repeatedly).

I do think of packing it in quite often though, but not quite yet.

LongerJohnny​(dom male) - Nah, don't let other people's bullshit get to you. Fuck 'em if they refuse to look far enough beyond their own assholes to see you there. They smell bad anyway. Pew.
Seen flashing my badge and twirling my baton, wearing a cap with word GRAMMAR emblazoned across the brim, I too might be one of the aforementioned police types. And I agree - this is your blog, you speak your mind, you do it in your own style, and fuck off the bags of douche that take issue with any of it.
That dumbass wouldn't support you anyway - we do.
(She?) is a cunt. None of us here is.
Me, the occasional fussy dinosaur, all of us, we land on your side of this.

LongerJohnny​(dom male) - Justme26 Never forget that Henna is a dinosaur in superposition and not a collapsed state. Translation- she is always right. Listen closely to her when she agrees with me.
