I dated a younger woman where punctuation was actually a red flag.
As they say, I couldn't even.

My wife and kids always think I'm mad when I use periods to end a text. It's funny, because I'm a bit pedantic about grammar, even in text messages, so it's just how I write.

Red flag for you? Because I get that.
I always swipe "no" on the profiles that don't know the basic "your/you're" "to/too" "of/'ve" etc.

So for your wife, it means something very different were you to text her 'I'm gonna put it in you to the hilt tonight.'

She would first ask what a hilt is, but yes, that certainly would be a red flag for a few reasons, haha.

To which you say 'You're gonna find out.' Nevermind, just give me your phone.

I always use full sentences and proper punctuation, and I rarely if ever use abbreviations and “netspeak”.
That said: those texts are fucking bullshit.

You can be my Cyrano De Rizz...er...nevermind, that portmanteau doesn't work.
Perhaps I'm psychotic, but I sometimes talk like that on Discord. I'm an academic at heart; I don't have a choice.
Am I texting my wife wrong?

Possibly. I don't like to be too coy so I tend to set expectations.
I'm not sex-negative by any means, but I'm more prudish than I'd like. I blame my Catholic upbringing.

Haw.... I blame my Catholic upbringing for my love of 'dirty talk'! Meanwhile, my wife is pretty unaffected anymore by the filthy songs I send her and nasty promises. "Yeah yeah yeah, bring it up again after the kids are in bed, and do a pick-up at target on your way home."

Red flag for her and some of the youth that I use punctuation and paragraphs.
But if I want to get all Fuck them Kids, the younger people call anything funny. Anything. Any joke. A dad joke.
Infuriates me.

Red flag for using correct punctuation!?!?!?
Yeah, get fucked, Gen Z.
