I hear this mostly from foreign speakers when making somewhat of a statement and a question. I’m not anything close to a grammar nazi and it doesn’t irritate me when I hear it but I’ve always wondered, is it proper English?

e.g. _It’s quite abnormal to become aroused by your parents, even though we do agree with you that they are well dressed, posh, nurturing, liberal, and attractive white females; no?_
