Cursive handwriting or normal?

People who don't write in cursive should be cast into the centre of the Earth. It's all loopy because it's the fastest way to write legibly, vs separate characters.
Also, for typefags, my paper never crashed and deleted all my data.

Cursive it's just the natural evolution of non cursive when you need to write fast

Been using it since 3rd grade. Basically only white people and the few minorities in my engineering classes can read it (and even then, it's a minority of the minority).

My kid is in 6th grade and they have to turn in every assignment in cursive or it’s an automatic zero. Easy way to separate the wheat from the chaff

Cursive is gay

NPCs can't write in cursive.

No one writes anything physically anymore, let alone in longhand.

>It's a well known fact that most of nobility or the well educated or most brave people of the past used to write in cursive.
Also well known that they used fountain pens. Cursive sucks for pencils or ballpoint pens.
Anyone who says otherwise never took notes in college.

Next step: cyrillic cursive

Lol. One of the most sought after schools in Silicon Valley doesn’t use technology until the kids are 11. It’s super expensive and super exclusive. People still use cursive. You don’t.

Cursive is normal

Likewise.

I remember, I was learning cursive in my 2nd or 3rd grade.
After that year they sort of just stopped; as a consequence, my cursive is sort of half-baked.
On the bright side, when I learned Russian, their handwriting is basically ONLY in cursive, so I got to learn it in depth with that.

Hey man, I'm here too. I know it.

Everyone write in cursive here

>be me, 10 years old
>catholic school
>write in impeccable cursive, always paying attention to detail
>random friend takes a look at my notebook
>"hahaha, what a fag!"
>"you got a girly hand"
>i tell him to fuck off and start to write like a monkey just to conform to society
>15 years later
>"ew, i can't understand a word of what you just wrote, user"
Im trying to relearn it now that im old.

I wish that we could use a cursive font here. It would do a lot to help keep morons away.

As long as you know.

Christ, they used to make us hand write everything when I was a kid, at least until it got to the point where we all had computers and could type. Have they dropped handwriting from the curriculum for the Zoomers?

We wrote essays in pen and ink mandatory, also must be cursive.

Will sewage processing systems be barred from the ethnostate? It's a well known fact that most of nobility or the well educated or most brave people of the past used to shit in outhouses.

Cursive was developed because of the ink and feather; that is, if one lifted their feather while writing, the ink would drip, or accumulate at the tip all at once, which would lead to blotching, hence why cursive was so important.

With modern day pens, however, cursive is not necessary. I for one have stopped using it, though I still can certainly read it, and if need be, write it as well.

Isn't handwriting and cursive the same thing? How do you handwright in non-cursive, just all printed letters like in a book or something?

It's not just unnecessary, with modern writing utensils cursive is far slower and awkward compared with print.

Those gel pens were pretty great for it though.

I remember taking the SATs when I was about 16. There was a paragraph that had to be written out in longhand for some reason. Everyone else seemed to have forgotten how to write in cursive even though they were my age and I know they'd learned how.

>thinks writing in cursive requires high iq
jfc how retarded are you fags?

Here’s a breakdown on schooling and writing stateside

>gel pens
yeah but they bleed through paper like crazy.

We had to submit AP English tests in cursive. So our public english courses were cursive-only. And yes it was retarded, sort of like believing in god.

Fucks sake, are Americans so braindead that they can't read cursive anymore? Over here kids at school still write everything on paper and in cursive all the way until the end of highschool (17 years old).

Who actually writes in normal script?

>School demanded that all assignments be done in cursive
>Have notoriously awful handwriting
>Teachers tell me to use print just so my writing would be slightly more legible
I can still write in it all these years later, but honestly the only things it's used for these days is signatures.

I don't understand how you can handwrite in non-cursive and think you're doing everything right. Cursive is easier for the hand because the letters have a natural flow and are all connected to one another.

Try being left-handed in catholic school.. not fun, really makes you question the existence of a higher power.
But after I went to public school, nobody there knew cursive and you were docked points for using it, or lost all points using it in standardized testing

This, I'm sure that even the people who write everything in normal script would do it twice as fast if they used cursive.

I don't like normal cursive, instead I naturally formed my own handwriting, now writing proper cursive is annoying, because the autistic school rules demand essays be written like that

even worse for latin script, i have absolutely 0 reason to write in it outside of english class

teachers stopped feeling like deciphering it so they stopped teaching it
I cant even remember half my letters trying to write them out on paper
Granted I havent used it in like 15 years

Does cursive actually serve any purpose or advantage?
Is it supposed to be nicer to look at? Because I
don't really think it is.
It's like someone is trying to pretend their biro is a quill or something.
It reminds me of the way supposedly 'lower orders/class' people try to immitate what they think is 'posh' - like throwing big weddings or whatever.

americans, africans and canadians

Printing is for fucking plebs.

It's simply easier and faster to write than printed letters

Are you trying to tell me there are people who write something that isn't cursive? I mean, my handwriting is absolutely fucking terrible, but it's still all connected together and I can't imagine writing print unless I'm deliberately trying to be readable.

faster and easier to write, has STYLE-ish look

I hated writing in it since it always felt slower for me
Granted I wrote at lightspeed normally and could fucking warp overdrive if I wrote in chicken scratch only I could read
Speed reading anything written in it was also a pain since so many of the letters look so damn similiar

except some retard decided to standardize cursive, defeating the whole point

My own handwriting is almost identical to blockletter - yet I write like that much faster than in cursive

speed should have fuck all to do with cursive. it's about showing you have creativity, self control, and the ability to learn a talent

>cursive is faster
wrong. spotted the retarded who never had to take real notes. or maybe you use fountain pens? nope.

well, every doctor uses print because they need to write fast.

Correct. Although as a consequence of practice and consistency you will often write faster than others.

Says the mutt who doesn't know the history of writing.

It's absolutely faster if you practice it to the point where it feels more natural than printing desu. Took most of my notes in high school and college in longhand so that people wouldn't ask to copy them if they missed class.

Not that much faster but if you write a full page it will make a difference, not to mention this is not my native language

>cursive writing is hard.
seriously, haven't you done anything non trivial with your life? threads like this make me realize why Jow Forums is so retarded.

Using a computer is simply more efficient and solves the issue of some people writing being illegible.
As for your computer crashing: Save early, save often. Keep backups

>t. low iq faggot
I never met a single STEM major who didn't immediately ditch cursive in college. we joked about how stupid it was that we learned it in high school.

you sound like a massive faggot

what the fuck are you talking about you absolute autist? It's objectively easier and faster to handwrite connected letters than to artificially separate them. You just have to take breaks from eating burgers and practice handwriting. When I was in the first grade they made us write loops and other shit for hours, which would eventually become cursive letters.
