sonja@futurebird left handed here. my 2nd grade teacher told me that they were going to hold me back a year unless my handwriting improved. ever since then, i hate thinking about having to physically write things out.

I was in my first year, with a Presbyterian teacher who held tightly on to the belief left handedness was of the devil. The 70s.

@hypostase @futurebird my mom is now ambidextrous because the public school system in the 50's forced all kids to learn to write with their right hands. my mom told me she would get hit with a ruler by the teacher if she used her left hand. 🤷
My dad is left handed and has horrible block print writing. Well... OK it's not that bad, you can always read it but there are no cases.
I know too many left handed people who really struggled with writing. My dad also went through the trying to force him to use his right hand nonsense.
