It's a tricky one, I actually think my spelling and grammar is pretty poor but in recent times with the advent of text-speak and Twitter I find my self being more concious about correct usage.
That said, I am in awe of those people who can communicate in multiple languages to any level.
I think that it also depends upon your personality, I am always trying to improve what I do and so am always critiquing myself. I do make the incorrect assumption quite frequently that others have the same drive. Take my wife for instance (insert your own 80s joke here) who rails against any such suggestions and sees it at criticism.
My point being, sometimes the 'corrector' is not always doing it to feel superior, they might just not have exhibited the constraint required to refrain from offering unwelcome assistance.
