Why do guys have such messy handwriting?

125 viewsOther

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.

It’s how we’re built. When we’re young boys have not so good fine motor control but better gross motor control than girls. This is why girls are typically better at writing, dancing, arts and crafts whereas boys will be able to run faster or throw and catch balls better than girls at a young age.

We tend to focus on getting better at the things we’re already good at as well.
