Being left-handed is a gift.
Not when 99% of tools aren't made with us in mind
Yes
I am a lift handed. Yes it is a gift to being a lifty but it's also hard trying to get stuff done in a right hand world. Don't get me wrong I truly love being a lifty person who try to make it in this world. It's true that people that's a lift handed person do stutter. We still get stuff done nobody what.. Sorry for the bad grammar too. It sometimes doesn't come out the way that I wanted sometimes. But I can say about being a lifty person. That I teach kids that are right and lift handed and they truly love it because I can interact with both of them and I'm only a lifty, 22 years old, I'm also a artist and I'm unique... All I have to say to people that are lift handed just accept who are you, stop looking for people validation to try to fit in cause you not going to get the right thing..here go my quote for yall- stop being like people that are not understanding how different you are just be unique and different than anything you can do??!
So is being an Aspie, i.e., high-functioning autistic, Asperger’s syndrome. While it’s a difficult life, the blessings far outweigh the difficulties. My brother is a lefty and I am an Aspie. It made for an interesting childhood experience for both of us.
I'm glad I'm Left Handed. I wouldn't change it for nothing 😌
Hey, trying to teach machine shop to a right handed individual-priceless!
Me neither. lol
@@aaronsalentine7876 when 2 minds think alike 😌👌💯
Eat and drink with right hand
I’m with you
A fellow leftie said. 'We have to be more creative to cope with a right-handed world.'
That is true. My high school had only right handed desks. I think twisting my body to the right so I could write properly, permanently ruined my back.
Being left-handed is a great gift.
Thank you.It's Easter 🙌 coming up...God bless.
So true.The Israeli tribe of Benjamin was left-handed.
@@peggyfranzen6159 I know I'm a bit late, but God Bless you and yours too Peggy ✝️💖
I m a left handed too. Since i was a child i was always outstanding in my studies, i am good in arts, i can sing well, i can dance well, i can cook well, i am a doctor, i can multitask and to be honest, everyone in my family are right handed but none of them are as gifted as me, they are also jealous of me for being good in many things.. So my point here is being left handed is a blessing and you are gifted, just need to explore your talent. Thats all
Left-handed people have a lower average IQ.
The idea of left-handed genius is a myth.
@@aem870
^Mad jealous.
@@ULYSSES-31 Mad jealous that left-handed people lie that right-handed geniuses like Albert Einstein are left-handed? Lefties lie too much.
Also the cause of left-handedness might not be genetic, it might be caused by bad environments in the womb.
no you're probably not that special, i know alot of lefties that ended up being crack and meth addicts
Hello my leftie friends, it's just nice to have you here. Just knowing that most people here are left handed.
I feel like right handed people are conspiring against us left handed people lol
I’m a left handed male but I can use well and the right hand. Excellent health, only prone to accidents. Extremely high IQ and highly skilled orator and thinker. A talented lawyer and engineer. Polyglot, writer, straight. Into the paranormal. Ardent animals lover. Mother never discouraged me from using the left hand. Instead she was rather proud for my peculiarity. She was a right handed artist, a painter. I loved mother like a goddess. I love all women. They inspire my life. Women make our life beautiful, interesting. Never never misuse women. (these are some of the personal reflections of a left handed man. I hope they would help). Thanks my LORD I was born left handed.
Also a very big ego as well. 😂 On a serious note, I've noticed that most left handed people (men and women) have a very strong attachment and admiration towards women. Always wondered why. One of the many mysteries that I love about lefties.
A study found that left-handed people have a lower average IQ. Your claim of "extremely high IQ" sounds like the type of many liess that lefties love to tell.
@@aem870 sounds like you have a bias towards them because there are many studies whom actually found that lefties are on average more intelligent than their counterparts.
@@Mar.1634 point me to one. By the way, Einsten was right-handed, so was Charles Darwin despite the many lies claiming that they and many other famous intellectuals were lefties. czcams.com/video/VdmVQVZMnRE/video.html
@@Mar.1634 Here are some famous right-handed geniuses: Einstein, Charles Darwin, Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, Mark Zuckerberg, both founders of Google Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Warren Buffet.
you can't name Newton as a lefty as there is no evidence for it. Look for evidence before making claims.
I am a lefty! Writing with right hand bcoz my mommy's objections! Play with left hand and also drawing, eating, drinking, painting, stitching, carroms, hammer, sewing, cutting etc all with left hand! Due to social pressure and the right dominated tools I became dexterous over a period of time! I may be wrong but i think creativity and emotional aspects are based on the environment and training not lefty or righty. For example left or right side driving is easily switched by many people by their training and attention. Before 16th century most people celebrated what is done by all so leftys were not recognized. Since last three centuries, people celebrating uniqueness in humans so left handedness attention and studies. Its not just left or right, every person for sure has some uniqueness. Let us know it, recognize it and celebrate it. Every person is special!!
Great, am also a lefty with great talents. Am the ambassador of lefties in Uganda and I defend the young ones who are tortured in schools for using a left hand. We deserve freedom as lefties.
I’m a lefty and proud of it. I’ve received the gift of creativity which I throughly enjoy being. My mom was left handed but they made her use
her right hand in school. They assumed u were sinister or evil.. the Italian word for left is sinistral.
Very interesting I’m lefty suffered an auto immune disease all my life. Married a lefty we had a right handed child but she could use her left easily but was naturally right handed , a lot of truth in this!
I know of another couple like yourself. The mother was surprised that their daughter is right-handed. I pointed out that while I am left-handed, neither of my parents are nor were any of my grand-parents.
In organic chemistry, there are left and right isomers, in sugars.
Both my parents are left handed.
They have five kids.Three out of the five is left handed. My two elder sisters are left handed, and my two younger brothers are right handed. I'm the third of my siblings,left handed.
The Bible says left handed people are more gifted, I'm left handed myself, I quit school after the 6th grade, IQ tested to be over 165 or higher Albert Einstein's 162, true wisdom comes from almighty God, seek God learn his ways find Him, all things comes with that
I actually got chills a few times during this video... They mentioned many many things that I have noticed personally. Instead of feeling odd about these characteristics, I now have at least some facts about them and they make more sense.
Squilly, I'm currently reading LEFT-HAND TURN AROUND THE WORLD, Chasing The Mystery And Meaning Of All Things Southpaw. It's written by David Wolman, good book (righies won't make it past the first chapter as the discussion of lefties is like Sominex to them), and you'll get a lot of the same feelings from it. I always found it odd as a kid (adulthood too, I guess) that we lefties notice one another instantly, and it's not as if we're looking for one another, we just simply notice it. Turns out it's not odd at all, pretty much all lefties do. Just one example, am sure you'd enjoy the book.
@@dougmacdonald3678 I just looked this book up. Good heavens it's expensive!
@@katykircher7413 I was lucky I guess, my friend's daughter bought it and I was able to borrow it.
So glad i bumped into this. I am a lefty, In have allergies, i suffer migrains and Im insomniac.
I was "studied" as a child in elementary school by a group that I guess where trying to figure how the odd ones tick. I was always being called outta class to go see these drs and scientists that made it seem to me like they where very interested how I solve problems and being able to throw, write, use tools, shoot pistols and it made me accel in and love martial arts and gymnastics type stuff. As a kid I was like a smooth ninja. Now as an old man I realize I wasn't invincible this whole time, my body was just saving all the injuries for me to meet later in life..
I'm a lefty
I'm a Male
I have amazing health & I am a great reader with no dyslexic issues
I have no studder & am actually very talented with speaking
Were your parents were older when you were born ? there is a higher chance of having a left handed child when parents are older at the time of birth( over 30 yrs old)
To be fair, the point was speculative and non binding. He clearly said that there would be exceptions. There's always Outliers, that's why we have graphs, to plot overall patterns.
Had a haemorragic stroke in 2017 which caused massive damage to my left hemisphere. I was comatose for about a month and the neurologists didn't expect me to be able to speak or understand language when/if I woke up. They thought that my retention of language skills were likely related to my extreme left-handedness, which also made the loss of strength and motor skills in my right hand limbs much less of an issue.
When I was about 10 years I spent hours drawing what looked like house plans and landscaping. I have always been interested in art . Always been resonally healthy .No allergy's or stuttering. My younger brother who was left handed went a teacher who tried to help him to stop stuttering. He was also dyslexic. His third grade teacher discovered he could get a perfect score in spelling if he was allowed to verbally spell his words. He is an extremely good mechaniic
I'm a lefty and developed auto immune later in life.
Same! I developed Hashimoto's and we have a history of thyroid problems but I'm the only one who developed an autoimmunity.
I almost repeated kindergarten, because of my left handiness, they highly misunderstood me.
Have you ever asked about left handedness and speech, or phonics?
I was fortunate.When offered a pair of right handed scissors, I said" I can't cut with this." Mrs.Potter was a great kindergarten teacher, and understood. My parents understood that.Individuals learning from really teaching, should encourage others.God bless.
They wanted to put me in college when I was in the third grade, don’t beat yourself up…
Are you sure it wasn’t your stutter?
They were not kind to our kind in elementary school. I don't know bout you but I grew up in South Jersey in the 80s and it was misunderstood but I knew I could do things "the regular kids" couldn't comprehend.. We had an edge the others didnt
Thank you for sharing your pondering and perspectives. I am left-handed and have right hand strengths, as well. Had a great grandfather who could write at the same time with both hands, writing different subjects. I'm quick and analytical. Appreciated this feature.
I'm strongly left handed, I'm asthmatic and have an auto-immune disease, pulmonary sarcoidosis.
Same 🙌🏽
Left- handed woman, I had eczema and extreme allergies, asthma until my mid teens. My youngest daughter is also left-handed, she is now 36. She has had juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, since the age of 2. My sister and grandmother were lefties, they both passed away from ovarian cancer. Positive for the BRCA1 gene. As for math, the basics I understand but the rest does not make sense.
Paul, thank you for making this available. A confirmation of so many of my suspicions.
I can relate with what the mathematician said. I dreaded English in school because the “right answer” is left up to the interpretation of the teacher. With mathematics there are only right and wrong answers. The laws are more clearly defined and with less exceptions.
I'm left handed,my son is left handed. I also have a brother that is and a niece and nephew and a few cousins.
You know, my best friend are left handed, and even my ex- husband cane from a family of left handed individuals.To my surprise he told me his grandfather was left-handed. No suprise.
Typo." best friends".
Im left handed and Im feeing TESTY
Don't get upset, being yourself, and asking questions- will help you.Some may not answer, however, that does not make you wrong.
@@peggyfranzen6159 I agree with you
I am left handed s well as having a rare blood type.
Me too. Lol
O+ never get sick, lefty 😅
I am definitely going to watch this 3 times so it will put a thicker memory implant in my memory.
Both my parents & my Brother were right handed, I am a lefty. When I went to school, at a Catholic School in Brooklyn, NY my mother told the Nuns do not try to change her, my Mother was one of 9 children & only one was left handed. When she went to school on the first day after coming home she was holding her hands behind her back, my grandmother to one look at her left hand that was bloody & bruised. She marched down to the Monsignor & told him what had happened, after that no Nun ever hit another Sheehan child, by the way I have a left handed son who has a very high IQ.
Iam a lefty, great your mother defended you when you were young but in my school they forced me to use the right hand getting my left hand tied with a rope. It was hard, now I decided to be the ambassador of lefties in Uganda. I defend the young ones who are tortured in schools for using a left hand.
This is so sad, i always thought that nun are soft people why would they hit the child like this? What a shame
@@jackiethelighter9447 Thank you for being advocate for us Lefties.💁🏼
@@sidk.8766 That was done a long time ago, my Aunt was born in 1910 also my Mother in Law, born in 1915 but her parents did nothing they were Immigrants from Poland, I guess they thought this is what they do in American.😩
I am right handed person, but deeply interested in left-handedness. I have noticed the following patterns through just observation: 1. Many standup comedians are left-handed. 2. Left handed people can tell jokes and mimic without laughing and without going out of character. 3. Left handed folks have their own way of learning algebra (I tried to teach one and discovered he had his own path). 4. Some of them can write in such a way very fast that it can be deciphered only by reading the mirror reflection. 5. Among people with disabilities it looks as if more are left handed. 6. Perhaps, the learning problems some left handed people have is caused by their teachers being right handed.
I also have a couple of opinions: 1. The writing of most languages are from left to right and from up to down -- and this might be a disadvantage to left handed people. And perhaps this might play a role behind dyslexia. 2. Appliances, doors, design elements of buildings, etc. are constructed to help the right handed people and might pose disadvantages to left handed people. 3. Left handed people must have suffered when tasks were taught to them forcing them to adapt.
I'm left handed and never had dyslexia or Studdard all the time, if I do it its because I'm nervous or uncomfortable around someone. My peepaw was a leftyvas well. But apparently I am am autistic, found out 2 years ago.
i am a left-handed and have some autoimmune disorder
Left handed and I kick with my left leg ,Army life was difficult to start with but I had an advantage in martial arts.
Kick with your right, hit with your left if you have to.
Self defense, is a women's perogative.Left handed women have the advantage.❤
The Army is most right handed.So, you are left-handed, correct? Make the most of being left-handed.Block with your right hand, and hit with your left hand.
Go with it.It can't hurt.
@@peggyfranzen6159 yep I've got it right as I teach Kendo ,in the forces I learned to shoot right handed but since being out I've revered back to left !
Thanks for this from

I’m the right-handed daughter of a left-handed identical twin father. When he and his brother, my uncle, were young, they were forced to write righthandedly, but while my uncle did as he was told, my father refused. Consequently, my dad had beautiful handwriting, and my uncle’s was terrible. They always worked in similar jobs, always at the same place: first at the Brooklyn Navy Yard and, when it closed, they both switched to the Philadelphia Navy Yard. So they both moved from New York to New Jersey, to the same town, and to houses half a block from each other on the same street. My younger brother is a leftie; while I was always considered the “smart” child, my brother had difficulty in the tightly controlled school environment. I am autistic (Asperger’s syndrome), while my brother is not. But his career path was much more creative than mine, and he and I had different, yet close, relationships with our dad. And when our dad and our uncle retired, they both moved to the same state and - of course - to the same retirement community. The twins had some slight divergences in career paths, with my uncle being less of a creative sort and more on the bureaucratic side. Guess who had the higher income.
The Late Medieval organ music is from a collection compiled in about 1470 called the Buxheimer Orgelbuch. It's German, but it includes pieces by composers from all over Europe, such as the variations on the piece by the Franco-Flemish composer Guillaume Dufay that was featured. I happen to be studying some pieces from it, and yes, I'm left-handed as well.😀😂
I use left hand for writing, knife cutting and right hand for sports like cricket etc. am I left handed or right handed 😃😃😃
I am left handed and have no autoimmune disorders, I love to read, no dyslexia, very verbal, no stutter. I am a musician, which is a mathematical language, but I did not like math. I am also an artist. I am a retired nurse as well. I have a very good sense of direction, no matter where I am I always know where north, south, east, and west are. Even at noon in the desert, it's like I'm a human compass. I don't know if that is due to my left handedness 🤔 oh, and I have no allergies.
Interestingly enough, I am also not male or female because I am intersexed (1/2 of my cells are XX and 1/2 are XY chromosomes) I had a lot of testosterone in my system until I decided to identify as female in my early 20's and recieved estrogen. Hmmm...could explain my left handedness according to this physician's theory of hormonal influence and more males being left handed.
Both my brothers my niece my sister my mom as well as myself are all lefties!:
My mother and mother-in-law were both left handed, their children all right handed. My mother has two grandchildren who are left handed. I am the oldest daughter of my mother and right handed, my oldest (daughter) is left handed and did brilliantly at school and is now a professional accountant. My son who is right handed, was dislexic, has ADHD, but is very intelectual.
I do everything with my left hand. I was also diagnosed with ADHD when I was younger but my hunger and passion has been writing.
Even writing is for right handed people. They go from left to right. Left handers smear the paper like that. We turn the paper on a slant and we write down hill.
It all makes so much sense! I'm a hard lefty with adhd and had a studder as a child, I'm also extremely creative and a percussionist who plays the drums an spoons. I never knew this was all connected.
Same. Minus the creativity. Lol
I’m a left handed woman and I have the immune system I very intelligent I never been sick or had a fever I do have arthritis in most of my joints
Arthritis can be overcome. Stop eating foods from the deadly nightshade family. Tomatoes, Potatoes, Peppers contain an alkaloid the body does not metabilize. It is stored in the joints causing symptoms. Drinking water will eventually clear this alkaloid. Mine cleared in 6 weeks....what a relief... There are two types of arthritis this woeks for the common type

I'm the only 'Leftie' in my entire family. I get a lot of ribbing, 'dorky hander', 'kak hander' etc. But I was BRILL at 'Rounders', Tennis and Pool.
I also have the highest I.Q. out of my entire family lol ! 👍👍😜😄
Yep kak handed was my teachers favourite word ? I had great fun in showing them how wrong they were ☺️
My Dad called me kackhanded, and some instinct told me it was derogatory. I wonder if he knew it meant 'excrement handed?' I just wish I'd known about so many members of the British royal family being leftys. If it's good enough for them...
@@gillianbergh7002 Definitely ! 🤗😁💖
Well, being called " a. south paw", counts for something!( Right handers don't get it.) So, aside from that, be yourself, and remember that 90 % won't get it- until they use their left hand.Using both hands- that takes dexterity...
@@1stinlastout165 Brilliant ! Nice one !
They used to actually try BEATING it out of kids years ago, FORCING them to use their right hand instead of their left. We were considered 'evil' apparently for being left handed. I'd have to look into that properly. I know when I played 'Rounders' in my schools teams, I was the 'bowler', maybe it's 'pitcher' in the U.S. and it certainly threw the other team off a bit lol ! Same when it came to 'batting', I'd walk up with the bat in my right hand, then, at the last moment, changed it to my left 😁😁... A bit sneaky I know, but BOY did I score some 'rounds'... 😜 He-hey !😂😂💖💖
I am left handed
Being left-handed is a gift- and an advantage.
I'm like smart dumb. Everything has too broken down too the 10th power. Everything has too make sense. I think I'm slow others think I'm highly intelligent.
You know there are many who say that, and still use use both hands.
Than say so.Don't be afraid to .
Thanks so much for sharing remain blessed
Hey, Nikola Tesla, and Albert Einstein were left-handed!
Leftie here
I appreciate this video being left handed and having a autoimmune disease. I also had to take speak as a kid for 1 year and now talk very proper. I can do almost everything with my right had as good as my left being the only lefty in my family.
I would not have known there were all these "advantages" to being left handed, if I weren't left handed myself.
I'm not saying I'm not without issues, I have allergies, but to have a documentary such as this plainly explain the benefits of being left handed is gratifying to say the least.
Watching this video has given me a better understanding why these certain things come easily to myself than my friends or colleagues that are not left handed. Not that I'll explain to them why either though. There has to be a sense of mystery to one's self
Thanks for sharing this documentary.
I have 3 left handed children( 2 female .1 male) We have dyslexia , twins and auto immune disease in the immediate family. 2 of my left handed children are having trouble with reading and writing. All 3 of my lefties are very creative and intelligent and also musically orientated. 2 are female and one is male. I have heard in the past that lefties could be the result of unborn twins? I'm fascinated by this subject . Thankyou !
Interesting. My mom always thought I was a twin but it was before ultrasounds (yes I’m old). I always said I never wanted a sister and was adamant that I wouldn’t. Lol. Maybe I killed my twin in-utero.
I'm both ,and at times I get confused with which hand to throw and which hand to write with ,I was told I'm an ambidextrous or a cross-dominance,also known as a mix-handedness ,and I.m the only one in the family with that condition or is it a "condition " ?
Left-handed people are gorgeous looking and alot more attentive to sensitivity, oh and they accurately weigh right handers up in a heart beat!
Is the stuttering of left handlers due to being forced to be right handers
My grandpa, mom, sister, and I are all left handed and each have a level of dyslexia. But I love the fact that I'm different than most and I always heard lefties were more creative and artistic and that's what I believed and became...dyslexia is actually a blessing because you have to create more neural pathways to figure out how to do things like reading or patterns recognition. I had allergies bad as a kid, hyper active, dyslexic, and sometimes studdered when I was thinking too fast, but at the same time I was walking and talking by the time I was 6 months old, I was memorizing kids books by 2 just by watching my mom read, I was writing in cursive from my mom's poetry books by the time I was 5 before I started kindergarten, my school also got my IQ tested, once in 2nd grade and once in 4th because of my reading comprehension test scores (just say between 150-160, at 2nd grade had an 8th grade reading level, at 5th grade a college plus reading level, in the 7th grade I had the highest TCAP scores in the whole country and in the schools history, and was offered to go straight to 9th grade to finish out the year, do summer school and be a sophomore. Just saying don't let your weaknesses rules you, once you rule them you'll see the truth within. I just wish I could figure out how to translate intelligence into something other than learning and memorizing everything you hear, though there isn't anything one can do with their hands that I can't learn or catch onto within a couple hours.
I also never catch anything or get sick, and I've always had a strong immune system. And I'm a lefty down their, this is blowing my fing mind lol.
Anyone else with a similar story?
Me here creative, good in education,arts and strong immune
@@stephensebit8508 heck yeah #leftyaquad
I'm born left handed, and my parent's teach me to change my dominant hand from left to right hand at my childhood. This changed me from left hand to right hand. I wonder if this gonna have effect.
I find that leaving out the real reason for discouraging the use of the left hand to eat , or other such uses quite silly, they must think that they are too intelligent to believe it was because you are suppose too wipe your ass with your left hand. Theres was no paper remember. Why this was left out is quite telling
Being a leftie l always got the sharpest scissors in elementary school. I'm the only leftie in my immediate family.
I have ADHD and am left-handed and am in the 95th percentile of intelligence amongst people on earth! I also have epilepsy, but I don't let that stop me! Also, I'm allergic to bees!

I'm female, left handed and I had a college reading level and was reading and understanding Tolkien novels by the time I was in 3rd grade. In high school I was in drama club and my script for a play was chosen not only for our club to perform, but to take to competition and even be performed in the local theatre. In art class I drew so well my art was chosen to be displayed in an art exposition. Nobody else in my family is left handed.
My family is genetically left handed, on both my mother and father's side. All of the men on my mother's side, and my grandmother, are left handed. (I have two left-handed sons).
Most of the women in the family are right handed. However, if you tell me to look left, I'll look right, because it feels left to me. I feel that my brain is in backward.

I’m left handed. Had bone cancer as a kid and missed 3 years of school and still scored higher on my SATs than all my buddies. A little all over the place and have had issues with addiction, but also do really well when I apply myself. Learned to code recently and entered tech after 40 with no previous background. We are different for sure. Athletic as well.

I'm left handed. I also have allergies and a thyroid disorder.
As I recall as a young child I gad to take remedial courses. I failed the 2nd grade. Later I excelled in English class both writing and literature. I had trouble in mathematics and algebra.
I remember having a lisp when I was young... that went away after a few speech lessons. I have no stutter..
Both my eyes are dominant but I probably use left a bit more, plus I'm also ambidextrous (born right handed but can write with left just as good), doing things better with both. I'm also ambipedal (both footed). Father is right hand and right footed and Mother is left handed and left footed. Crazy!! My Eye Doctor several years ago said I've got the best eyes he's ever seen in his 30 years of profession.
Well my second grade teacher made me use my right hand. She told me I was using the wrong hand…
One day my mom seen me writing something and ask me why I was using my right hand. I had started slowing down on my school work… I told mama what the teacher told me and oh my lands that teacher was in big trouble. Mama takes me to school and told her I was born left handed like my older brother was . Our daddy was left handed. My mama had to explain it to the teacher. She really thought something was wrong with me. But I started getting better at my school work but I truly did start using both my right and left people were amazed just watching me and I thought they were the weird ones. But I ended up being very strong in my right hand. My brother wrote up side down to me. I couldn’t write like him no matter how hard I tried. But I still write left handed and eat left handed. That’s about the only difference.😊

'Better' right-brain thinking, and a more active immune system. Both linked to higher testosterone levels in utero.
I've always felt as if playing ping pong left handed is worth a couple of points a game. Everything is coming back to that rightie in a different way than he's used to. Just one example.

1:00 wait what happened to the right handed attackers? So what did they do to them?
A right handed person doesn't have the reflexes of a left-hander.
The Tribe of Benjamin, we're left-handed.
The djedi scribes of ancient Kemet where left handed...ancient majik in Africa was notably a left handed task
The Israel tribe of Benjamin was left-handed.
The tribe of Cush
0:52 Are we really going to ignore this comedy gold? Seriously, not one joke in the comments? Such great potential squandered...
🤣🤣🤣
We had a lot of aunt Nd uncles Nd cousins. My mom dad sister Nd brother all righties. All aunts Nd uncles righties. My one cousin Nd I r lefties. Nuns told my mother I was retarded and she needed to take me to doctors. Doctor wrote a letter to nun that I was perfectly normal and do not change her to write with her right hand. But I can write with my right but sloppy. I m totally a lefty. Sister still calls me lefty. Didn’t stutter but did have speech problems.
Are you writing a book?
I hate my dominance! Why must I be right handed but left footed, eyed and eared
My father was left handed. When I started school they tied my left hand behind my back so I couldn't use it, know one in my family ever knew about this (I was in boarding school) they just thought I stop using it by my self.)
they weren't nice to me either. in the lower grades. one teacher in particular made fun of me and shamed me publicly. it set the tone for a large part of my life. #nobaddays
Sorry that happened to you
@@spiceutley7467 thank you but that's just the way it was man. :) Hope you are having a great day!
I love being left handed 😊😊
I also have a daughter that is also left handed
If u live in a highly superstitious community like mine as a left-handed person, your life becomes more difficult than it already is. I've had very unpleasant situations with males especially when I tried serving their meals with my left hand 😔
I'm left handed, my closest four friends are left-handed, I have type 1 diabetes, vitiligo and a PhD. 😂
I am a lefty & my right nut hangs lower than my left one & i agree with Gerschwind's findings. but the stuttering only occurs when nervous or uncomfortable around right handers or uncomfortable situations & once lefties are comfortable around right handers or just oozing confidence all the time you will find no stuttering or dyslexia. confidence is key. & we will try to hide our intelligence from others so they can not exploit us. I was a B C D grade student once you get an A they expect it all the time, but i couldn't hide an A in physical Education classes and i worked out i was better at everything than all the right handers in my class when it came to sports ect i dominated. i even did 1 kids work in every class for him as i would notice i was finished halfway through the class & he had not even wrote his name yet at the top of a test that was given to us, so i would swap test papers and leave my name out then switch tests papers so all he had to do was write his name and i did this from grade 4 to year 8 thinking i was helping him, i realized when i was older when i bumped into him through another friend years after school days when we were in our early 20"s then and he was living in a nursing home for the elderly with no education. education is the key. I did get caught a few times by the teacher for copy my answers from the test papers i would switch with him. i am 48 now & just came across this now & after watching this it confirmed a lot.
i also had hypersensitivity to second hand cigarette smoke and had extreme hayfever but i had local bees honey high in pollen & had a spoon full morning & night for a few months & never had any hayfever symptoms since.
8 years later still no hayfever just mild symptoms like itchy eyes when around trees in hayfever season in spring because e evolved with the plants.
Somehow I can see the stupidity in a group of people, and the group of people can see my own stupidity in a way I never could, HAH vice verse X)
Being left-handed, adopted into a family of right handed individuals was awesome, because I still became left handed, and learned to use my right hand.It became a problem when I was younger, 3-5 years old; then I discovered no problem @ all.Be yourself- always✌
Forgive the stupidity in another, and yourself.
In my family my grandfather was a lefty and he was one of those once every few generations type of man, they don't build them like him anymore. Then there's me, and I'm the only leftist since him, but I'm also "dyslexic" but I'm told im highly ambidextrous and as a kid i noticed I being able to have equally precision and power between left and right was a rare skill
I'm a lefty n I live it
I write ε, λ, σ backwards as a lefty in Greek. I cannot make s, l and e make sense written the right handed way but I’m notoriously awful at Greek.
Holy shit we as left-handed people are smarter than right-handed.
This is awesome. Now I know left brain dominant doesn't really mean logical and Right brain doesn't really mean intuitive. Why such misinformation is such a widespread and now seemed like common knowledge?
Im a left handed and my late grandad was ambidextrous.
I'm the only one left in my family and no genetic diseases or dyslexia. And I brought the hammer down a few times😉🍺
Left handed people living in a right handed world
Most of my family is left handed, it’s genetic.
Being adopted, I am pretty certain you are " right"- no pun intended.All the same I like that fact.
Lefty here with an attractive writing style . Few can beat me at pool or shooting guns. Nat. honor society in hs.. Retired at 57, no one gave me anything. I like how God made me.
