I'm left handed. It's still easier than print for me.

You can write cursive left-handed just fine, slanting letters the other way helps.

I'm right-handed, but I had to learn left-handed cursive at school when I spent 5 months with a cast on my right hand.

Being left-handed I've done left-handed cursive for far more than 5 months. I pushed myself to also try and learn to write right-handed. In a left-to-right writing style, its more than just slanting the letters slightly the other way. In the end, the right-hander is overall dragging the pen across the page while the lefty is overall pushing the pen across the page.
