Dyslexia is a general term for disorders that involve difficulty in learning to read or interpret words, letters, and other symbols, but these disorders do not affect a persons intelligence. I have worked with and have known a number of people who suffer from this disorder and have found them all to be exceptional people. In fact one dyslexic person I met many years ago remains one of my best friends to this day. I can personally vouch for redhot666 she is also a very good person deserving of your respect.

People can / may laugh at me as I'm different to most - I laugh at them cause they are all the same. What others think of you is none of your business! Read between the lines on that ^ and keep at it.

I don't know your story on here. But please ignore the people who make fun of you, they are just ignorant and mean. They are what you call bullies. Good luck on here. There are some nice people on RHP. - Posted from rhpmobile

The forums have very narrow levels of acceptable behaviour on many fronts, anything that deviates is torn to shreds and ridiculed. Which is why the range of posters is so limited. Fuck 'em !

I am so sorry, as will be the overwhelming majority of people on here, that such ignorant and mean spirited individuals have treated you in such a manner. If you have not done so already, please block them immediately. Obi1

I have never seen anyone be disrespectful to you at all, yet you keep making comments like this. Perhaps address this with the person/s in question? Either way, RHP seems to be working for you.

I've read various general comments about grammar on here, have never commented myself until now. I usually have enough other battles going on lol 😀 but I don't give a crap whether someone has trouble with the written or spoken language, I do care how you feel of course. It makes zero difference to how I view that person, same as career, what type of car you drive or fancy house you live in, I never judge my guys on any of that either. Is perfect grammar going to make them a better fuck? Lol 😊 I actually find it cute sometimes, especially when there's a language barrier, love that, turns me on. I've known people, highly intelligent, who are hopeless with directions, left/right gets mixed up, which I believe is to do with one side or part of the brain which is where those signals are meant to come from. Although that doesn't work so well, the other side is quite often very intelligent. Although i'm sure I haven't explained that very well, I'm using it as an example to let you know we do understand. Try to ignore those people, it's just ignorance. The majority of people do understand and more than you might think. Hugs from me too xx

funny: read this joke! :) :) ? A tourist asked a boat guy in Zanzibar,"Do you know Biology,Psychology,Geography,Geology or Criminology?"The boat guy said, No. I don't know any of these"The tourist then said, "What the hell do you knowon the face of this Earth? You will die of illiteracy!" The boat guy said nothing..After a while the boat developed a fault and started sinking. The boatman then asked the tourist."Do you know Swimology and Escapology from crocodiology?" The tourist said "No !" The boat guy replied, well, today you willDrownology and Crocodiology will eat your AssologyI will not Helpology and you will Dieologybecause of your Badmouthology"

I try to correct myself all the time. Some days I fuck it up and yeah, Ive been pulled up in the forums. In the eraly days one (now vacated) member was a bitch all the time and one that is still here, USE to also be mean. There were a few others too but this two stood out. (The forums were quite evil back then but they were great also) In saying the above those bitches upset me, I never use to post as much and I would wonder why people were such dicks. SoI tried harder for my dyslexia not to show and slowly began to understand it better, I also took time to improve my grammar and spelling. I never once whined about it as it gave away my power to them. Though it did upset me..5 years later and you can still tell, though not always. RHP and the gramma Natzi bitch heads...THANKYOU for helping me with my dyslexia. Turn the negative into a positive for you. - Posted from rhpmobile

Quoting 'xoJulesox' red hot 666if you wrote something similar as what you have written here in your profile introduction it would help people to have a better understanding when they do exchange messages with you and save you from constantly having to explain I actually agree with this, if it's something you are comfortable with. Or at least mention it upfront when you start messaging someone since that seems to be when the issues arise. The majority of people will understand, those who don't and who may belittle you for it are assholes not worth bothering about.

If you could learn to remember this it would be great, if not maybe copy and paste, write it down with pen to paper, but please keep it for you and use it for you. "Unkind words and thoughtless snubs, are but the echoes of a small and frightened person" 'thoughtless snubs'... that means saying mean things to try and hurt your feelings, or make you feel little to them, but they are the ones who are little and frightened.

Yeah and it's one of those things that we don't fully understand until we meet people afflicted by it. I can't be more specific for the privacy of those people I know but supremely intelligent, as you obviously are 😃 I need to trust someone I'm meeting but that trust is built in a number of ways, not measured by wealth or grammar lol more what's under their shirt or in their pants 👍😀

I'm sorry to hear that you've been on the receiving end of that 👎(sorry, only just saw your last comment). Can only imagine how that makes you feel. Maybe just try to explain in your first message.

Dyslexic not many people understand what it means ! Well I do ! I am not very good at explaining but I will try my best. I am a sufferer with my HEAD (skull) broken in 4 to 8 places and my Brain Hemoraged in (broken) at least 6 pieces. I had to learn to, Walk, Talk, Read, Wright even reconise people even my Parants. People know me but I don't have a qlue who they are, for me it was like being a Baby again. People I do remember don't want to know me as i'm "Fucked in the Head" Looking in the Mirror was the only way I knew who I was and what I looked like. It's so very hard to explain. This was an execution to kill me that failed. Explain ? Ask and I will tell you. For me it's hard to Live like this and I struggle with it every Day. Waking up and wondering where you are, most of the time it's all to much.............................................................................Don't worry or be frightened of me (most people are) meet me and I am copletely different to what you THINK. I've had 10 years to get used to being like this

born on a small island without much schooling so her vocabulary has always been limited. But I admire the way she gets around it all. Often she will tackle words which nearly always comes out wrong but you know what she means. She doesn't mind if you let her know and usually laughs when she stuffs it up. I sometimes know the word she,s looking for but try not to interfere until she asks. Not that I'm any Rhodes scholar but I get by , just . Redhot666, take a leaf out of her book and laugh it off. Like I said earlier, we are who we are and that makes us unique. Accept you are only 1 amoungst plenty others the same. It OK to be yourself.. Probally more Lovable too.

When people tease to humiliate another because of their poor spelling and dyslexia, little do they know IT does effect someone long term emotionally. You should never apologise for their behaviour. They should just have a good look at them selves. I know it's hard to ignore, it's about them NOT you. Keep your chin up beautiful lady! Ms Foxy

Never apologize for starting a new topic. The idea of a forum is for people to discuss, debate, support, whatever the case may be, but i'm so tired of original posters being pulled up for starting topics already raised in the past, links get thrown at them. You are welcome and encouraged to post as often or as much as you like. We all change and evolve as we go, and come forward with fresh opinions. It is also an opportunity for us to support you when you most need it, an old topic thread isn't always going to suffice in that sense. It also increases awareness and keeps us in check, puts everything into perspective. Topics like this matter, your feelings matter, you matter xx

I know of at least 3 people who have posted in this actual forum who have put others down (quite recently in other forums) for their spelling and Grammar, when there has been no need for it. And people wonder why new posters do not post. It scares them off. I know if at least 10 people who will not post for this very reason. Makes me sad. Ms Foxy

1. Chastising someone maliciously isn't cool.... 2. Not all people who correct someone's spelling or grammar, are out to defame, humiliate, or to chastise maliciously.... It's all how you perceive it.....if you can't change it, then be comfortable with it. And for those who will then ask "am I saying that if you can change it, then you should feel uncomfortable??" chew me.... If you wish to change it, and you can, kudos....but it's far from a prerequisite. - Posted from rhpmobile

Turn the negative into a positive for you. - Posted from rhpmobile But I think your dyslexia has been a blessing in disguise, because where you used hard words for hard feelings, I for one have always felt the raw emotions with what you say, EB too and she copped it worse from the moderators that could not see the meanings and especially the fight in liberating women, protecting transgender, people treated different because they were not normal, or educated, sexuality, kinks or fetishes in judgement from people living within the boundaries of safety and comfort zones and frightened, because deep down you have always been right with your street smarts and emotions however written, a protector in so many ways and as I said too you, "one of my favourites over a few years now. And that post was written beautifully and with feelings and emotions, I hope EB reads it, she would be so proud of you. xx

I do not have dyslexia, I still have trouble with understanding and using English grammar correctly every time I write a long comment, or tell a story! I have not yet been laughed at about this difficulty of mine on RHP, I do get teased occasionally in real life because, some people are just plain rude and ignorant and expect me to be able to speak and write like a native English speaker, since I have been living in this country for 1/4 of the century! Some people will always be an A-hole no matter what, therefore, do not let them get to you redhot667 and definitely do not apologise for something that you did not choose to have! I would block those abusive people and report them to the mods as well, if I were you! Chip up OP, those bullies will meet Karma when the time is right :) - Posted from rhpmobile

I have not seen any post of anyone belittling your dyslexia and if did occur, that is not on. Further reading down this thread, you said that the belittling occured in private via private messaging between you and the men in question. I suggest you ignore these people and dont spend anymore of your precious time on them. Giving them your time and attention only gives them the power over you. Go on your merry way. Focus your attention on those who see your positive attributes. be strong. take care and dont spend any more time on these people take care. big hugs.

there are people who think so little of themselves that they need to prove how big they are by destroying others. None of us are perfect and that is sometimes when we are attracted to different people. But don't fight them they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. Stay happy and have fun!

There are a few people who are close to me who are dyslexic, and they are some of the smartest people I know... One being a child, who has aspirations on being an engineer. I have heard her parents tell her it is a "super power" as she thinks differently to others, making her able to see things differently, as well as the many famous people out there with dyslexia. If people do not understand they are not worth it.

I suffered with dyslexia growing up as a I kid I was continually failing in my grades growing up with dyslexia and then finding out in my adult life that I had a ADHD , that didn't make anything easier.. What was not able to be understood is the fact that my intelligence was right up there and also being very well spoken as a child made it very hard for everyone to understand as to my inability to be able to read and write.. There is a good side to this story ..I am now a successful in owning and running my transport a business ... which is the result of being determined and not prepared to put up with the bullshit from other people trying to put you down determination wins every time.. So red hot triple six take it from someone who has done the hard yards determination works..

all of these posts saying these other people are scumbags even though they apparently don't know redhot is dyslexic - yet I very frequently see no defence of people using txt spk, and us having exactly the same level of knowledge about the other person's possible issues with constructing proper sentences i.e none. They could be dyslexic, they could have some other similar issues - instead people assume they're just a lazy bastard worthy of making nasty posts about. IMO this thread is full of a lot of pots calling the kettles black (not redhot).

To some research the ability to read and write is 50 % genetic and 50 % environmental...children that are read to from an early age ,will definitely fare better..One of the problems is that some parents struggle too . ,but now there are support programs in place but not enough.The Australian of the year ,Local Hero Award was so important because it went to someone who set up an innovative program for kids ,providing spaces and volunteers for story writing and telling. ..The world of books and reading is still one of the great joys of life..so many different worlds to enter into...the world of the Interwebs can't be accessed if you can't read...if you struggle with something you are less likely to want to do it...for me it's maths...but if you practice it you will create new neutrons ...there is no easy solution to what is a very complex problem that affects over 50 % of Australians,xxFreya

I know it's hard to do because these negative people actually re-inforce the doubts that we all have, but they are wrong, pure and simple. It is them who have the problem/issue, not you...... try not to let the negative in, don't waste your energy on negative thoughts..... I have a post it note on my desk as a reminder...

that's true. who are these pot heads? Looking at the posts above, the posters seem to be supportive of Redhot's predicament and sympatheic rather than winning points for nothing. I will take things at face value rather than read more to it and make false assumptions nor character assassinate them withoug meeting them or knowing more about them. So who is to judge one is hypocritical or not just because they emphatize with redhot and to be deemed insincere and hypocritical. I am at a loss what you and Foxy are referring to. those statements should not be thrown into the arena and left to fester as it only brings unnecessary conflict into the mix. I have seen hypocritical people here posting one thing seeming sincere and caring but totally toxic and destructive in person. Quite inconsistent in their behaviour here online as in real life. That is, to me, hypocritical. In my opinion. Walk the walk, talk the talk.

That is, to me, hypocritical. In my opinion. Walk the walk, talk the talk. I didn't say that anyone was simply being nice in here as a point scoring exercise. Perhaps I should've just used "inconsistent" to avoid the other connotations associated with "hypocrisy", and expanded my post to include poorly written posts/messages/profiles in general. I'm saying that it is inconsistent for people to be critical of one set of people displaying poor written language skills, yet then be critical of a second set of people because the second set were critical of someone displaying poor written language skills. Posters in this thread are privy to critical information (i.e. dyslexia) that the people replying in messages were not, and I don't think some people are accounting for that. The posts haven't been "you shouldn't make fun of or be critical of someone", they're more along the lines of "you shouldn't make fun of or be critical of someone with dyslexia" - if it was the former then that would be consistent, but the people in the OP's post did not have the information required to satisfy the latter - if they did, and then behaved in the same way, then my response would be different. With that said, I'm comfortable with my posts in this topic. joder: I remember that, it was a drastic difference in both the number of words used per hour, and the number of different words used IIRC. There was also some looking at the exposure to different words not just directly expanding vocabulary directly via the words heard, but in decoding ability to work out what a new word is that they've never been exposed to before.
