I remember once in middle school I forgot to put my name on my paper and got 100% on a quiz. We had a sub returning papers and there were two people who had no names, me and a guy in my class. She refused to believe my paper was mine because the handwriting was so awful and she didn't want to give the wrong grade to the wrong person (drastically different grades). I had to have several other students vouch that my handwriting was mine and in the end she also double checked my notes to make sure.

How sexist and terrible is that, to tell a kid they're lieing because girls always have good handwriting?

Tsutarja March 10th, 2014 6:41 AM

I've had female teachers that have worse handwriting than me! That should go to show that substitute that handwriting legibility has nothing to do with whatever sex that person is.

My handwriting has always been borderline uneligible. You'd have a better chance of reading ancient nurse runes than mine. :/

Puddle March 10th, 2014 7:13 AM

I hate how people do generalize that girls have better handwriting. I've seen some awful handwriting. However, there is reasoning behind it. Boys use the logical side of their brain, which goes with math, and people who are good at math have bad handwriting because they only focus on that side of the brain for the most part.

While girls use the other side which focuses on the English portion and stuff. They write more and are more engaged with what they are writing, therefore, they write better.

However, it can easily be turned around. That's just the basic generalization.

I am a boy with amazing handwriting, but I'm a homosexual so I'm not sure if that counts

That might explain mine as well. Although I'm actually primarily right-brained. :o

For someone who studied psychology as a major for 2.5 years, I always seem to forget which side is responsible for what XD

Oooh, so the topic is handwriting?

Some of the people here probably already've seen mine in the thread that I made a long while ago, but anyways
mine has changed recently due to some factors; I figured I still can write nicely enough for me and fast enough for school standards if I write small letters smaller than I did before, also my n/m doesn't look like a u/w anymore because I sorta needed to differentiate those :p

Compared to the other guys in my class my writing looks "insanely tidy" and "really nice", but maybe it's also got something to do with that I'm transgender and so on

Pendraflare March 10th, 2014 9:14 AM

Sometimes my handwriting in earlier grades was considered above average for the time. That hasn't really changed for me, although learning cursive wasn't straight nature for me at first.

Doesn't matter too much nowadays, because most of the stuff I write out is done through typing, anyway.

Taemin March 10th, 2014 9:29 AM

My hand writing when I'm going fast or a normal speed is kind of bad, but if I slow down it's kind of round and cute looking. Nothing fancy, and I can't write in cursive very well. v o v

Snubbull March 10th, 2014 9:34 AM

My mom always said my handwriting was crappy. Well, she says that about everyone's, but I can't ever read hers

Meganium March 10th, 2014 9:40 AM

Mine's a combination of cursive and printing. I learned how to write cursive at 4th grade but never really mastered it, because I despised it. lol. So later on I learned how to combine both printing and cursive in writing so that way I could have the best of both worlds. That eventually pissed off my teacher. :D

Omicron March 10th, 2014 9:51 AM

I was taught cursive since Kindergarten, so I mostly write in cursive.

My handwriting appears to change with my mood. It is pretty and tidy when I'm calm and happy, regular handwriting most of the time, and an ineligible mess when I'm angry or anxious.

Khilia March 10th, 2014 9:51 AM

It'd definitely look like 10 times nicer if I was using actual writing paper and such, but aaaanyways;

Alexander Nicholi March 10th, 2014 10:57 AM

I always wanted to go to Germany, and living near an Army base I know so many who have.

When my mother got back from Alaska she had a choice: Go to Germany for 3 years and take us or go alone to Korea for a year. My dad wouldn't shut up about how much hated Germany so he didn't have to go, so we didn't. :/

Kanzler March 10th, 2014 11:10 AM

lol why would hate germany?

Goo March 10th, 2014 11:24 AM

I'm sorry but I'm pretty sure that gender and sexual orientation have no effect whatsoever on one's handwriting. However, I do prefer women and I'm female so maybe I'm only furthering that faulty idea...

Also, Germany is pretty close to me now. Now that I can live in the UK forever I want to travel all over. I only need the funds to do so.

You know
Nazi stereotypes and all such things
and maybe other unexistant reasons I can't think of...

I only know that mediterraneans, especially Greeks sorta cherish a grudge against us for some reason

TheFattestSnorlax March 10th, 2014 3:58 PM

I heard that Germany is full of people who value their privacy...

Honest March 10th, 2014 4:03 PM

You make it sound like that there are people who don't value their privacy.

I'd like to meet them.

Because he's a selfish cheap prick mother♥♥♥♥er and thinks that his menial self-absorbed activities in West Virginia with his high school buddies is more important than the whole of the family and its future. If we went it was likely that I would've been born there rather than at Fort Sill, but meh. If I didn't get conceived at that exact moment I wouldn't be who I am... God knows what I'd be. I'm glad I turned out like I did :P

Long story short it wasn't Germany he hated. For once in his life an oppurtunity presented itself where God forbid Mike Rose give a cent for someone else. No exaggeration on that.

Honest March 10th, 2014 4:49 PM

In other news, I learned how to say "suck it" in German. Well, a little more detailed than that, but yeah. x]

Nathan March 10th, 2014 6:34 PM

I hate the German language so I don't think I'd ever set foot in Germany :|

Nowadays I write so fast that my writing's awful ;;

*raises my hand*

in some ways.

Sector March 10th, 2014 7:22 PM

Ya know, as of recent, I've been wanting to start writing in cursive 100%. Writing in print is boring. I always love to sign my name, that's the only time I write in cursive, unfortunately. I don't even like printing my name at all either. I'm weird, I know. I should self teach myself how to write again!
