    dysphoria, but it's nbd

    Writing dysphoria strikes again. I hate having brainworms that my writing looks like boy writing this is such a weird thing

      Being autistic my handwriting can change mid sentence, my notes look like 5 different people wrote them if I'm not concentrating on it.

      I'm sorry it is making you feel uncomfortable though, I hope you feel better soon

      cursive

      I learned how to do cursive in school with a fountain pen. You can learn if you wanted to, there's a few people i've seen collect fountain pens too as part of it. I know this isn't much help to you now but maybe learning would help.

          Oh it is for sure, Ash hates her writing too.. I can write in various styles but my hand gets held in different positions too so it can be weird to see it change completely unless I'm writing cursive then it is all nice and tidy because I have to concentrate on it more.. But it is also easier to write with joint handwriting too..

        I do want prettier more feminine writing but at this point most of my writing is for when I'm at work at its just to remind myself what people said on the phone (I'm a charge nurse, the HBIC). I guess it'd be nice to do the census board instead of always letting someone else do it though...

          Ah I understand, I was aware of your job too I'm glad it's being going well for you c: Would the census board be easier on you?

      spoiler

      :yea: I've always hated my writing and been envious of how pretty some of the girl's was.

      If it helps I think most people's handwriting is terrible.

        I've met plenty of cis girls with worse handwriting, I had a shithead evil dipshit dude boss with all that entails - but he had fucking beautiful cursive writing he was embarrassed about (looked like old timey letter writing). I know there's no such thing as boy or girl handwriting on a conscious level, but beneath that I still feel it and IT SUCKS.

        Thanks though, I do appreciate it, it's nice to not feel alone meow-hug

      Luckily for me I have dysgraphia so my handwriting is so messy it just looks like scribbles. It can’t even be read, let alone gendered comfy-cool
