FFS!

So you have problems telling left from right. Big deal. Here is a hint, one of your hands makes an "L."

Yeah, yeah, it goes further than that, but there is NOTHING in any of the three articles I read that would suggest that you cannot CHOOSE to change your interpersonal communication skills behavior.

What is your goal in posting this? Attention in the guise of informing? Compassion in the form of understanding?

There's a lady that posts on here frequently, that talked about overcoming her dyslexia and actually being able to read backwards and forwards equally. She doesn't ask for compassion or to be knighted a victim. Hell she barely mentions it at all, and hers is quite an achievement.

I have no interest in feeling sorry for you. Pity is easy, all you have to do is look down at someone. Admiration is hard, as you must look up to someone.

Lazarus, it was to point out that having a motor control issue is not an excuse for being an ass on a message board and then cry about being bullied.

No one has yelled at him for knocking over a glass of water at dinner. He wants to blame his issues with CM on his motor control issues.

I have always felt that the information about your left hand making an "L" for checking left and right was extremely useful. I learned this when I was about 15, I only wish I had learned it earlier.

I would not say that I feel like a victim over it. It is really just a coping strategy.

Naw. . . don't feel sorry for me over the left/right thing. Feel sorry for me over the fasteners that go in from the bottom. That really sucks when you have to lay on the floor so that you can visually picture a clock face. You should definitely spend a good week or two pitying me over that.

Seriously though, I just always figured that I was not a bird-brain. No directional magnet in my head.

Isn't that nice. Trying to make someone who probably doesn't feel the greatest about his disabilities feel even worse.

David,

Listen you keep attacking people all the time and you do not even listen when they say they'd be willing to give you a chance if you change your behaviour, but you seem to set out to be offensive to people. Now if you walk into a pub or a party and you start insulting people, what do you expect? That they all say "What a wonderful bloke, let's hug him and make him feel welcome"?

It's not going to happen! Now nobody here is glad that you have a problem with dyspraxia, unlike you who gloats about people who were involved in accidents, ended in wheelchairs and killed themselves in the end, honestly, that is not something that is going to endear you to people. You have a motoric problem roughly 10% of the population has, so I am quite sure there are a lot more people with the problem here, yet none of them sets out to upset others and be insulting.

Since you came here, you have done nothing but been rude, you claim that dommes all just pretend because they want to be loved (that thread was pulled), then you crow about subs using the wrong words, then you try to appeal to the moderators that you haven't been greeted nicely, you bitch about pro dommes and subs and you aren't even aware that there are also male pros, you claim this massive experience but your posts indicate otherwise.

Why don't you simply start again and try to act as you would if you meet a group full of strangers at a party? Just be nice and polite as you hopefully would be in person. Your experience might be vastly different.

All of us were new here once, there are new people posting here every day, some of them have problems because they aren't nice, others fit right in.

Since you claim to be a dominant male, surely you know that to master anybody else, you should be able to have a bit of control over yourself. This place is what you make of it, a lot of us have met in person or talked on the phone because we talked on the forum first, you know there are real people behind all the screen names, if you try to talk to them like you would to people you meet instead of being rude, I am sure they would do the same, of course there will be exceptions, but the majority of people here seems to be pretty alright, the odd idiot you will find everywhere. Now what's your choice? Do you want to be among the nice crowd enjoying a bit of a party and a natter, or do you want to be the bloke who's trying to ruin the event and who will eventually be asked to leave?

I don't see it as a misinterpretation. You are rude. It's a choice. You act like this and people won't like you.

With my oldest, we just say she has fine motor control difficulties. However it doesn't have any effect on her being able to be polite to others.

But your ability to wield a pair of scissors has nothing to do with the words you use online.

I will offer my usual suggestion to people who need to learn social skills. Call your mother, tell her what you've been saying to people, ask her if she thinks this is acceptable, and then ask her to give you a refresher course on manners. Because, quite frankly, you stand in desperate need of one.

You have dispraxia. Well there ya go. I suffer from long-term clinical depression, social anxiety disorder, general anxiety disorder, seasonal affective disorder, borderline personality disorder, stress and a few others. I take full responsibility for my posts and don't blame it on my illnesses. That's what they are. The only time I mention anything is if someone starts a thread about depression or some such and offer what I can while trying to be helpful. I've suffered from this since the age of 6. That's 42 yrs of my life.

There's no one to blame, my brain is wired differently and I recognize that. I try very hard not to let my being down affect what I have to say here. I have fun in various threads with people I know, that i've befriended from being on this side of CM. I'm very self-aware, know where my abilities and deficiencies lie and if I'm out of line and someone tells me, I don't have a hissy fit.

So suck it up buttercup, act like the adult you're supposed to be. That means not acting in an asshat manner, accepting constructive criticism and not having a hissy fit when people don't agree with you or call you out on your behavior. Some of us have problems here, we don't advertise it, we don't blame it for what we type in a post. You're not the only one with problems, so don't try to play the woe-is-me card and take a really close look at any you post before you send the message. Not that hard to do.

And yes, I read the entire information provided on the website, not just parts of it. If you spoke to people you meet on the sidewalk like you type posts here you'd be in biiiiiiiiiiig trouble mister. Think of it that way.

Dude, I'm autistic, and I only come off as a douchebag 0.01% of the time. Learn from me - if you think what you're about to say might make you sound like a raging DB, either don't say it or rewrite it until you're back in the 99.9%. It doesn't take knowing left from right to do that.

I'm just going to save Myself some time and re-post this from the other thread:

Do you want to be a man with a disability, where people cowtow to you because they see the disability first; or do you want to be a man, who people think of as a man first, who happens to have a disability second?

ETA - Just a curiosity question. How are your in person interactions? You know. The ones that aren't hindered by having to type your comments out? Are you a real popular guy? Lots of friends? The kind who people would do anything for because you're such a good human being? If so, *that* is the personality that you should show on the forums. If not, you might want to ask yourself if it's really the disability that is the problem.
