Is ruder the correct way to say it?

Or is it like the word "stupider." Because "stupider" use to be incorrect yet it's on DIctionary.com as correct.

So, is Ruder and Stupider incorrect to say?

Ditto. I was told that "stupider" and "ruder" were not real words. And that you'd simply say "more stupid" and "more rude"
