what do you think about learning cursive and how people don't use it anymore?

I still love it, I also taught myself calligraphy and bust out a fountain pen when someone asks me to sign a birthday or farewell card :)

Honestly, I don't think about it much since to me writing cursive is "just how it is", but I do wonder why they stopped teaching it. It is so much faster for note-taking.

In my high-school's defense, they did teach us touch typing, which has come in far more handy than cursive.

People got more polite. They wanted their reading to be more legible to others, even if it took a little bit longer.
