Discussion Anyone else here hold a pen with 4 fingers instead of 3?

[SupremeAutist]

I discovered last year that a lot of autists tend to hold pens like this and it's because of our fine motor skills are worse than that of NTs. This was when I was trying to improve my handwriting and I was told to change the way I grip a pen which I didn't even know wasn't normal at the time. Does anyone else here do this?

Opposite for me, my handwriting is decent but I’m very socially awkward so my body language always seems off and it makes it look like I have motor skill related problems when I don’t.
