It might help everyone to look up "dysgraphia".
I am in a very technical field and several males that report to me have various written communication issues. They include dyslexia and dysgraphia. I even have had a few employees over the years with high-functioning autism. They can actually do quite well in my field.
All were/are superb in their technical skills and analytical abilities. A couple with obvious dysgraphia have even risen to the level of supervisor or manager. They tend to have someone else [[usually a female ) edit their writing before sending it out. I'll even edit the writing for them when I know that they have a brilliant idea for how we should approach something, and I don't want it shot down just because of their poor writing abilities.
I used to be rather snobbish about what I considered less than exemplary writing skills before I had the opportunity to work with people who had superior logic skills but couldn't put two good sentences in a row together to save their lives.
