Well, the whole definition of Cuckold appears to be wrong.
Married men or in a relationship with a woman can be cuckolded Not single men who just want to watch a couple play and perhaps have a three some.  |

"Are instead of our.
Forfill instead of fulfil.
I can't be asked instead of I can't be arsed
Of instead of have
"
All of these bug me. As a mod are you ever tempted to go over a profile in red text and not approve it until they fix it? |

 . I only mod the forum.
They do make me twitch a bit but I have family members who really struggle with reading and writing for various reasons. I tend to think as long as I understand the meaning it's fine.
My grammar can be a bit dodgy, I never did master the difference between a colon and semi-colon.
I was tempted to take a marker pen to the greengrocer's sign I saw recently advertising 'asper grass' though  |

Lol. To be clear, this wasn't specifically aimed at spelling and grammar, more about when people use words wrongly. Like when a lady describes herself as a "nymph", meaning fictional water fairy, when she probably meant nympho... |

"I'll go first: "discrete", meaning separate or unconnected. Commonly misused on Fab when the writer actually means "discreet", which means self-restrained or tactful."
I’m sure a lot of men who write “MMF” on here actually mean “MFM” |

"When people talk about a click not a clique"
This is a good one, I've seen it a lot here. Also it's pretty funny how some people immediately feel left out and get annoyed as soon as 2 people share a private joke, or reference something that happened on the forum like 2 days earlier |

Not on here but a very vanilla (or I assume she is) friend posted on Facebook that she was doing a muddy obstacle course race against her husband and it was going to be "no holes barred" rather than no holds barred.
I just didn't have the heart to tell her that was something different. Although, I would love to give her a demonstration.

It does.
MMF - male, male, female; threesome where the men play with each other as well as the female.
MFM - male, female, male; threesome where the men will only play with the female and not each other. |

If you have three straight men and a woman, how do you write that ? |

ok so use the convention to describe 3 straight men and 1 woman.
You can't. If the men are bi it's a bi-mmf |

I'm not saying you're wrong, just what my understanding of the acronym is. I don't know what the convention is to describe three straight men and one woman. So you're right I can't do it. |

Exactly. The whole mmf is bi thing seems to have been an invention of Fab users."
We’re new to Fab it’s not something I’ve learned on here. I’m part of online smutty book clubs, my knowledge of acronyms comes from there.
If you’re interested the kinkly website explains them all. |

The convention of using initial letters and you're right, it can't be done which is why the whole 'mmf is bi' thing is a joke. |

""Looking for fun" - mostly used by women who are not looking for fun as they are really,really, really picky "
Because having sex with people they really really really don't fancy is much more fun, right? |

I think the correct terminology is really helpful to determine whether a single or couple are open to bi play or not. A lot of guys on here state “straight” as their sexuality so they don’t discourage straight only situations, but they are open to bi-play.
I did some research in my book club and I’m informed it’s all about the first letters;
MMMF - 3 bi men, 1 female
MMMFM - 3 bi men, 1 female, 1 straight man
MMFMF - 2 bi men, 1 bi female, 1 straight man, 1 straight female. |

Why do we have to try and communicate in as few letters and as little effort as possible though? Why not just use words to describe unambiguously what we wish for? |

The spelling and grammar can be a bit dicey - and that's usually (but by no means always) a good indicator of whether there will be a click. What really annoys me is that UTTERLY daft "publicly traded entity" bollox..... |

If it's northern, you can here where the "t" would be.
I'm going t'asda. The "t" might not be heard as you expect, but there will be a slight pause in "going" and "asda".
