    Is it normal to be repulsed by the serif fonts?

    I try over and over to make myself use them and I never can.

    • The world of the serifed font is glorious, inspiring and challenging. It's a bit like blue. cheese, some folk just don't have the palate to appreciate it.Morning_star
    • I mean, there are designers who made careers only using sans serifs, but yeah, it's weird to be repulsed by them to the point you can't design with them.monospaced
    • I always associate serifs with uptight, conservative, boring.

      So, no. I don't use them.
