Meanwhile those of us ambidextrous…
It can be beneficial for a lot of sports
When I play basketball, it gives a slight advantage in the beginning when opponents don’t know I’m a lefty because they automatically assume I shoot with my right.
Also, being able to naturally drive one handed in a left-hand drive car.
Training people in surgical techniques is way easier in lefties because most have been imitating right handed people so have some degree of ambidexterity. When you tell a right handed person to do precision movements with their left hand it fucks them up for a while.
Yes but good luck with scissors 😭😭😭 I fucking hate that thing
After 30+ years, I finally bought myself a nice pair of left handed scissors.
If I’m being honest, I’m so used to right handed ones, that the lefty ones feel wrong anyway.
it’s actually a good idea. I once saw a store with many “for left handed” products. But most of them aren’t really necessary because you just get used to the regular ones.
Fortunately, me and a pal were the reason our kindergarden bought some lefty scissors.
Damm it now I realize why I feel too much uncomfortable with scizzor
Left handed people are superior beings
We are simply better than the rights
but it takes three lefties to get it right.
See life from the side of not being the “norm”.
We don’t have to switch hands with our forks in order to pick up a knife.
Forks are on the left for a reason.
Why would you need to switch hands?
Notable advantage in a lot of beginner and intermediate level sports. By the time you get beyond that everyone knows how to compensate for left handedness.
Easier for you to assault a castle with spiral staircases while using a sword.
I’m told that Ferniehurst Castle on the border between Scotland and England was built with the stairs spiralling in the opposite direction because so many of the clan that built it were left-handed.
May also have been a subtle way to help protect in case the castle was stormed. I’ve certainly heard of castles where the steps were sometimes irregular heights - those who lived there would be used to it, but invaders would not and would find it harder to move effectively. A differently spiralling stair might have the same effect.
Seems that doesn’t work quite as well in tennis, where pretty much all the time 15 to 25% of the top 100 ranked players are left handed.
Either everyone knows how to compensate for a southpaw or everyone is a southpaw. Fencing is a lefty’s game.
It’s a conversation starter when you see another leftie in the field.
I fence, and lefties have a significant advantage, just because we’re used to fencing opposite-handed opponents.
From memory, we are statistically more likely to be geniuses. Unfortunately we are also equally as more likely to be clinically insane.
There a fine line between genius and insanity. Apparently that’s the line between left and right.
You say paranoid delusion, I say let me see those notes you’re writing-!
You are born an outsider. This allows you to understand the world more clearly at a younger age. Not sure what advantages this may give but it’s reality.
My gf thinks lefties are hot. I don’t understand but I got an advantage there 🤷♂️
Good thing you’re lefthanded!
