Cursive and Print.

The print.

The sophisticated cursive.

A lot of my friends complained about my handwriting being illegible and very hard to read. They said that they tried to read, but to no avail. They even commented on my handwriting, that is - ugly. Cursive is ugly, yeah right.

Today, I am going to defend all the cursive users and tell the non-cursive users that cursive is not ugly at all but in fact, it's an art of writing. 

Writing in cursive requires more dexterity than printing. Call a cursive user to print, they can, but on the other hand, call a printer to write in cursive, they can't.

In the past, only cursive was taught, but not printing. Cursive was such a prevalence in the past that only the cursive handwriting exists. People used cursive, and no one had ever complained about it being illegible and ugly. 

On the contrary, nowadays, when you see someone using cursive, you'll say something like

' Oh, he has got such messy and ugly handwriting! I can't even read his writing. It's totally illegible."

Past:

'I see I see, and wow he has got such a nice writing."

I call them irony.
