Smutbag United Kingdom 16,984 Posts | SoUnkind: If you want to say yes but dread the onslaught of HNG email to follow, just start your reply post with: "I've got this friend who's like that" The dumb doms won't catch on, right? (they'll only write you for your friend's name.) LMAO - best thing I've read today | |

Americas Sweet Tart 11,698 Posts | Folks judge you on your looks in the first 15 seconds of meeting you in person. Why would it be different online? Though here, we judge you in 15 seconds of reading your post It's a visual medium. cake Subs are to be used. I like to do it rough and mental. I like knives. ~ Blue Dolphin | |

| Forum Slut United States 1,022 Posts | SoUnkind: Are there any submissives, bottoms, what-have you, of either (or any) gender who will admit to a fascination with the idea of yielding to someone strictly on the basis of, say, sweat and chemistry, even if the dominant prospect, though obviously bright, can't present themselves verbally very well? Or even a fascination with yielding to someone--like the subjects of the link above--who isn't very bright but, I don't know, might present some feral dominant instinct?

Forum Apprentice United States 136 Posts | ok, technically not a sub but....... i would have to say, if the chemistry was there, but he couldn't communicate with me, i might stick around for a little while. but after a few weeks, i would just get to a point where i wanted more from the person i was with. i would want to have intelligent conversations. yes, i've had a relationship where the sex was phenominal, but he had rocks for his brain. i just couldn't keep the sexualt interest past all that drool. | |

| Forum Maniac United States 3,605 Posts | Oh great, now us small & stupid guys are double screwed! Yeah...but isn't that what many guys come here for? It's okay if someone can't spell I am enthusiastic and sophistocated. LOL I'd rather see it than read it!~ I agree spelling counts...sometimes...like in A&P class. You're actually graded on spelling. But when I play with my smartass boy...spelling is NOT part of the lesson plan! I'm not saying it doesn't matter...I'm just saying that's not all there is. *Man's mind stretched to a new idea NEVER goes back to its original dimensions.* | |

no comment  Finland 1,569 Posts | I don't mind typos and slight grammar mistakes. English isn't my first language so I do them all the time and still I don't bother to run my emails nor postings here through a spell check first. If someone is bothered by the mistakes I make that's his problem. After all this is just a message board not some official site where official language is needed. However, if someone's spelling is really bad like: "i kant typetis korretle beecouse im to leizyandi dont careif other kan undorstan me ilaike giv spannkingsso whats problemwith you whydont you wannaplaa wiith i" then I can only say that if a bloke is that lazy with his spelling it gives a very bad first impression. Like someone has pointed out online there's about 10 men to 1 woman so we can be more picky. Why would I want to start to mail with someone who expresses himself that badly when there's a lot of men who are much better on it? | |

| Forum Maniac - unknown - 8,913 Posts | The way that we express ourselves reflects the way that we think. Attention to detail in both thought and action, among many other things, matters to me. Regardless of the reasons for it (typing skills, time pressures, never having taken the opportunity to learn to spell reasonably well), I interpret it as a lack of attention to detail. On that level, we'd not be compatible. | |

Forum Maniac  4,654 Posts | SoUnkind: the funk without the Wagnalls. Smart guys are a pain in the ass. And usually more figuratively than literally. I'd imagine smart women are worse. I don't begrudge men who like dumb girls, because I had a dumb guy fetish for a long time. When you put together dumb + narcissistic, it equals a very easy way to interact with men. Takes no effort. Just make the appropriate murmurs when they are talking about their accomplishments and material successes. They don't pay attention, so your mind can wander or you can just focus on their bodies. Easy peasy. No thinking required. The funk without the shite. I remember when my dumb guy fetish ended. It didn't have anything to do with my friends -- I at least had the decency to keep the dumb guys away from my regular social interactions. There's nothing worse than someone who is seriously dating a bimbo/mimbo and they bring them to parties and everyone ELSE has to listen to them. I mean, Jesus. It happened when I was lying in the strong arms of a funk without the Wagnalls investment banker in his Tokyo apartment, a man who was fascinating in many respects, driven and sexy and magnetic and even charming in a lukewarm way. He was jabbering on about his career goals, and I happened to glance down at my watch. I thought "fuck, I just missed the last train. How much would a cab cost? Fuck, I'm all the way across town. Fuck, fuck, fuck." At that moment, I decided that there were better things to think about in post-coital bliss than how to get the hell out of there. Then, I didn't have sex for almost two years. Hard to find men who can spell. As for b.Doms, it's all talking -- typing, really -- without the lukewarm charm of a sweaty athletic body that looks better out of his suit sprawling next to you in some god-awful overpriced apartment in a fashionable area of Tokyo. Literacy is essential. luvvies, -- Edited by - errare on 2004-11-22 08:41:53 | |

| Forum Maniac Canada 2,733 Posts | Spelling and grammar are important to me and I admit that I gauge the quality of a lot of communications (and the person behind the communications) by how well-spoken or well-written the communication is. In fora like these, very often we are typing our impressions and our thoughts spontaneously as they emerge and we don't always give total attention to the spelling/grammar aspects. As a result, typos can happen or a verb and subject not agree, or whatever. These are minor, however, and we can usually get a sense of a person's overall written/verbal abilities from how he/she expresses himself/herself. However, when a person's style of writing or speech has LOTS of spelling and/or grammar errors, I admit I am put off by that. It's not because I think they may not be good people, but because *I* would not feel comfortable getting close to a person who cannot express himself/herself in a literate fashion. Well-spokenness is an important quality to me, as is the ability to express well in writing. It's part of the overall attractiveness I would look for in a partner. And it doesn't always have to do with educational levels. It simply has to do with the command of the language. I have more education than my Top in terms of academics (he has one degree, I have three) but he is extremely well spoken and very erudite. One of my closest friends never graduated high school but as an adult she has developed the ability to speak and write well and she puts many academics to shame with the clarity of her prose. I don't know, I guess I have a grammar/spelling fetish! Gentlefire | |

cheekybottom United States 4,879 Posts | Are there any submissives, bottoms, what-have you, of either (or any) gender who will admit to a fascination with the idea of yielding to someone strictly on the basis of, say, sweat and chemistry, even if the dominant prospect, though obviously bright, can't present themselves verbally very well? Or even a fascination with yielding to someone--like the subjects of the link above--who isn't very bright but, I don't know, might present some feral dominant instinct? Call it Tarzan/Jane syndrome, if you like. I mean, for a lot of you, the humiliation factor would be built in and already taken care of. If he could do the right things with his eyes and hands (etc.) then why not? Does anybody recall the movie Threesome/1994 Starring: Lara Flynn Boyle, Josh Charles, Stephen Baldwin, Alexis Amuette? Anyway, Lara Flynn Boyle who played Alex had a Tarzan/Jane moment. It was all hot and steamy until Larry, with the very scary hair (I can’t remember the exact quote) opened his mouth, and then it all went to crap. I suppose if it was a one timer and he could be like The silent O in Moondew’s forum under relationships then I could tolerate my TARZAN . I’m not all that great of a speller myself, which doesn’t effect my intelligence, but I could see why it would hinder the advancement of an on line relationship to that of a Real Life one. Invariably I’d need more than just sweat and chemistry . I’d like to think the same applied to any Dominant concerning any submissive that caught his fancy. Built in humiliation from some beauty King? In my estimation that definitely pales in comparison to one who can articulate with razor sharp accuracy! I'd have to agree with amica: I could submit to bright but inarticulate (and spelling impaired), but I couldn't submit to stupid. amica ~d~ -- | |
