Okay, it's boi-pussy; at first I thought it was bio-pussy. Well, you really can't expect Word or any other program to arrive equipped with such words. That's why they allow you to create your own dictionary.
I'm really showing my age because when I was twenty (1975!), I thought Christine Jorgensen was one of the few transgender people to ever exist. (Hey, another person born and raised in The Bronx. Growing up in Belmont couldn't have been easy.) It was quite a surprise when I saw that it was the main plot point of Dog Day Afternoon.
That's more a joke way to phrase it, not that boipussy is a serious term lol
Let's face it, everything about human sexuality has some humor, sometimes quite dark, in it.
MS Word is very "sketchy" when it comes to checking grammar. Grammarly is better (at least it tries to deal with commas) but it needs to be watched carefully. Anybody know of a non-free program that is worth having? I know we've talked about this before.
ProWritingAid is one that seems to be well regarded.
I've noticed the grammar checker does some odd things. Ithates certain intensifiers now, tries to tell me not to use "really" or other words which I guess are technically not needed but still super normal. It also wants me to use "spoke" a lot
Yes, Grammarly almost always flags "really," "actually," "in fact," and other things. It's another judgment call. There is a lot of that in dialogue, because people talk like that.I've noticed the grammar checker does some odd things.

Yes, we've talked about that one. The paid version is $10 per month, which isn't bad I suppose. The free version has a 500 word-count limit (per document, I guess), which is a deal-breaker I'd say.
I would never attempt to write on my phone. I don't even like texting that much. The keys are too small and the output is hard to read. I probably need Jitterbug or whatever that phone for geezers is called.
All my forum posts and almost all my stories on Lit have been written on a phone. I can type as fast with my thumbs and suggestion buttons as I can on a keyboard, without the need to get out of bed. It's not quite touch typing, but getting close.
You must be quite a bit younger than I am, although I had guessed that a long time ago.
I've never used an iPad. Nor have I written on any laptop. I used to write on an old Apple desktop. I forgot the name of whatever program it used, but it seemed okay. The weird thing is that it could convert documents to MS Word, but not the other way around.
I'm 50. Old people are allowed smartphones, you know. My dad uses his phone a fair bit now, mostly for the camera zoom function so he doesn't need to carry a magnifying glass everywhere to read menus and such. Both parents love their iPads, though I did have to produce a child to teach my mum how to use hers. Dad's been a programmer since the 60s, so has acquired new tech or software when he sees a need.
Necessity is the mother of invention and that. Imagine you can't move your arm and/or are spending much of the time lying down. Or just want to write during a crowded commute or other snatched moments.
I'm going to be 68 this year; I wish I was still fifty. Well, actually I might have guessed that you were about ten years younger, although of course I had no real evidence to go on.
For a while I had lots of lunches in my car, not going anywhere. Required to sit around for an hour. I ate, then could either watch some more videos or work on some stories. A good portion of my Fucking Magic series was written on a cheap bluetooth keyboard linked to my phone. At that same time I was doing a lot of editing, between working with customers, which was kind of easy to do on my phone. Pulling it up and read a few paragraphs before the customer stopped ignoring me. But I don't do to much Literotica work on my phone anymore. I'm back in front of a computer for most of the day.
