Is good handwriting attractive?

[loulourako]

I saw a post of people's penmanship and it looked like it had been typed, and many people said it was attractive. So, I was wondering if you thought it was?

Good handwriting is attractive // Bad handwriting is unattractive

Handwriting has zero affect on someone's attractiveness

[Jxpxtxr]

I really couldn't care less.
I probably have one of the messiest handwriting in history and never ever has anyone had the balls to tell me I'm ugly because of that. :P
.. So I don't think the vast majority of people even care unless they're like shallow to the power of 1000..

[moistycakes]

It's not a deal breaker but I ALWAYS notice if a guy has nice penmanship and it's a plus.

[lumos]

I think it's impressive but doesn't make me more attracted to someone.

[TheBraveLion]

Yes - coming from an artist :)
But bad handwriting doesn't really make a difference.

[DodgersGM]

It can hold a certain type of appeal, but I wouldn't call it "attractive."

[kaylaS91]

I hope not having good handwriting isn't a dealbreaker. My own looks like chicken-scratch, always has. :/

[Yumix]

same here lol

[RedAmulet]

@kaylaS91 you can be certain it's not the worst as mine is waaay worse

[kaylaS91]

@RedAmulet oh I wouldn't be so sure about that! I mean, sometimes mine is so bad even I find it illegible and end up having to just put some words into context to be certain of what they are.
Thank god for MS word eh? :P

[RedAmulet]

@kaylaS91 Mine is so bad my school force me to use a laptop for everything as they can't read any of it :P Example of my NEATEST hand writing underneath. Send a photo of yours, IF YOU ACCEPT MY BAD HAND WRITING OFF!!! :P

@RedAmulet lol okok I do have a picture of my writing where the neatness level was mediocre at best. We were allowed to bring in a flashcard where we could write whatever we wanted from the 4 chapters covered on which we would have to write two separate essays for the exam of one of my classes. So this is it when I'm trying to cram as much as I can into very little space, yet make it still legible so it can serve it's purpose. :P

@kaylaS91 wow, mine is more messy yours is more symbol (if that makes sense) also strange coincidence both our pictures are of psychology stuff. Mine's about using flooding and systematic desensitisation in order to treat phobias :D (your's appears to be about the psycho-sexual stages but correct me if I'm wrong.

[kaylaS91]

@RedAmulet hahah I didn't want to force my actual class-notes on you. MUCH messier. Those flashcards took me quite long to write-out as if they were illegible or I misread part of them, I could fuck myself over for the exam we were allowed to use them on. &yeah, odd coincidence! A bit of it was on Freud & the psychosexual stages... they were for a 'psychology of personality' class where each week we covered a different personality theorist and the tenets of their theories. I've got some on Fromm and Jung as well, most on Freud because he sort of layed the groundwork for most other theories.

[RedAmulet]

@kaylaS91 Nice! At the moment we're doing a psychopathology topic , which is really interesting, with one teacher and we're doing social psychology with the other, so things like conformity and social roles. It's all really interesting (well, when you're not doing research methods).

My fast notes hand writing is not only illegible but should also probably be illegal :P

[kaylaS91]

@RedAmulet ah yes! Sounds a lot like material I covered a few semesters ago in social psych. Really cool course. Research methods are cool too, surprisingly. I took a whole course on just that in the summer that went into studies, explaining statistics and how they arrange/gather their data minus the numbers though. I'm taking a stats course with the numbers right now and it's brutal.
...2 weeks to go. -_-

[WilliamWinslow]

It is okay if your boyfriend likes it. My girlfriend says she loves my writing. :)

[RedAmulet]

@kaylaS91 I would find the statistics interesting but experimental design and methods of sampling can die in a hole. Are you at university (US = college)?

[kaylaS91]

@WilliamWinslow lol he teases me about it for sure. In all fairness though, they do pull the notes off the overhead so fast in class, I either speed through taking them down or get nothing at all if I took my time and cared about neatness. yeah his writing is the opposite of mine. Very very neatly done, super precise and stuff. I love his writing too. :P

[kaylaS91]

@RedAmulet nooo trust me. Statistics are not interesting at all. All that class really is is attaching the calculations that they use to calculate different types of averages and stuff. There are sooo many, with just minor variations according to each kind of study. Stats is basically a class like experimental design, but just the numbers. There's no theory there. I love math, but that class can go die. x_x

[RedAmulet]

I think I'd enjoy that more than things like sampling techniques and all that dull stuff. Have you done any psychopathology? So mental illnesses and stuff? That's what I find the most interesting

[kaylaS91]

@RedAmulet ah perhaps to each their own. I have done psychopathology and I love it. I'm actually on the wait list for advanced developmental psychopathology next sem, crossing my fingers I'll get in. If not, I might even try to go talk to the prof and ask her if I can just come anyway hahha because I had her before, loved her and I got a good grade in her class so we'll see.

[RedAmulet]

@kaylaS91 best of luck getting into that course :D I think mental disorders are fascinating

[apple24]

ahhah I kinda like crazy handwriting show that he is more intersted in getting his words out than the calculation!

[CHARismatic110]

I like when guys have nice handwriting but it doesn't make them more or less attractive.

[SuccessfulOVO]

Handwriting doesn't affect someones attractiveness to me. But, good or readable handwriting is nice.

[jordan90]

I prefer people to be familiar with a keyboard. Bad handwriting shows they're not, ergo it is a turnoff. It's all in the fingers.

[jordan90]

*Good handwriting shows they're not.

[RJGraveyTrain]

It virtually makes zero difference to me.

[ChocoLada]

LoL, it has Zero effect on attractiveness.

[zombiebabe]

tbh it has nothing to do with attractiveness

[jakeofalltrades]

I hope not my hand writing sucks

[Complicated-Soul]

Zero effect.
