Like a spacker, according to everyone who's ever seen me write.

I hold mine with both hands stretched open as much as possible

Living in fantasy land I see. :rolleyes:

I hold my pen normally but my hand writing is like a epileptic spider defecated while having a seizure.

They way some of you hold your pen, reminds me so much of school.

Like a fag so I can pretend I'm smoking.

How do you hold a pen?

Hold a what, now? Hmm, I think I have a vague memory of this p... pae... peen thing. I remember I used to hold it like a boss, naturally.

Same here, 4-fingered. Teachers apparently noticed it, but didn't say anything. Still write 4-fingered now at age 37.

I saw the woman (who promted this thread) again today and paid more attention to how she holds the pen. Pretty much this:

Her writing was still way better than mine.

I'm ambidextrous (not bragging...lol) but I hold a pen/pencil inbetween my index and middle fingers when using my left hand and use index finger and thumb when using my right hand :confused:

Generally I use my right hand for quick scribbles as it is my "stronger" hand. Left I use if I fancy or depending how I'm sitting or standing. Then sometimes I swap between using my right and left just to ~~show off~~ confuse people

I write similar to this but my index finger is down between my thumb and middle finger, I basically have all 5 digits down by the tip of the pen.

I don't recall anyone ever telling me that I'm doing it wrong or taking the **** and I always get complimented for my neat writing, surely that's all that matters?

I'm more concerned that your arm is hairier than my head!

HecFam · 23 Sep 2015 at 14:12

I do similar to the op, but 2 fingers on top, resting on my 3rd finger.

My handwriting is awful.

What's the odd's the OP has a hand fetish?

How do *you* hold a pen?
