I’m gonna say from ages 8 to 18 for the sake of fairness here. I understand girls improving faster at first, but even in high school I remember so many guys who could not write legibly all the way through high school. Why is that and is there a way thing could be countered properly? I feel like if the answer was “practice” then 10 years of writing essays in school should do the trick.

Girls and boys develop their nervous system and motor skills at very different rates with different emphasis. Studies have shown that guys don’t really develop the fine motor skills necessary for writing until after they have started school. This developmental lag then sticks because if you learn to do something wrong it’s very difficult to unlearn it and do it right, and basically those 10 years doing essays is counterproductive actually.
