I learned how to play musical instruments right handed myself.

The other weird thing is that I write left handed, bat left handed, shoot pistols right handed, shoot rifles left handed, and my right foot in dominant. Though, I'm mostly left handed when it comes to normal tasks.

Learning to play music righty was just easier because of the setups etc. (drums)

Pretty sure my left-handedness is another symptom of my alien roots. I'm also the only redhead in my family, nocturnal, allergic to the Sun and dislike most foods on this planet.

Re: The Left Handed Do Not Belong!
Let's see.. I bat baseball right handed but throw left handed. I can catch equally well glove on either hand.
I golf right handed, and I box right handed but still have a killer left. I play tennis left handed. I shoot left handed, but I can shoot pistols in both. I'm not good with a rifle right handed, though. Trouble using the right eye as master eye.
I can write with either hand but the left seems more natural.
Overall, being left handed sucks. I play the guitar pretty well but if I was born right handed I could have been a whole lot better.
right handers are lucky to be normal, everything is made for them.

Left handed people live on average seven years less than right handed people, largely due to accidents. This is a right handed world...a lefty trying to operate a chainsaw will likely end up cutting his leg off, and they tend to want to read directions backward, like putting together a gas grill, they are likely to start on step 37 ignite gas.

Five or our last seven Presidents have been left handed. You might be right OP. It does seem that left handed people are more book smart in the small world I live in. Both of my nephews are left handed and pretty good at whatever they try.

Mom was left handed. The most memorable incident involved her trying to teach me how to crochet. It was the most frustrating ordeal trying to do what she did but backward. I only succeeded in crocheting long chains that wound up looking like one strand of a double helix

In school I was in constant trouble with my English teacher because my writing took a left handed slant.

The nuns in my dad's catholic school in the 1920's tied his left handed to his belt and made him be right handed.
The left handed were devil children, I guess.
He became right handed but dropped the catholic church like a hot potato.

The best things you can do for a left-handed child are: (1) teach to type school assignments as soon as possible; (2) (re)teach penmanship, with arm at side and pen away from self. You might want to teach back-slanted cursive or block printing. Ask them to think of it as art, so they don't immediately repeat and reinforce the penmanship habits they learned in school. The writing change easy to learn over a school recess, and lasts a lifetime.

that's funny considering the fact that I am left handed yet do every including write with either hand

I use my right hand for hunting, archery, baseball and everything else neath the Sun as well as writing with said right hand

altho I normally write with my left nonetheless

less may well be less but more is better indeed...

The reason you Dad's left hand was tied is because before Toilet tissue and good personal hygiene was invented people used the left to wipe, supposedly.

Therefore the left hand was "unclean". It served the Nuns in their control to use the Devil.

The only Devil was in some of those "Brides of Christ".

He did right to drop the Catholic Church.

Left handed people use the creative parts of their brains so they became Artists and are very creative.

Because they have to live in Right handed world they use both sides of their brains.

Your Da is a genius, artist and has brilliant common sense!

I hope he is still around, if not I hope he is using that belt on that nun!!!!

 Quoting: alexisj9



Me too! Out of the 7 siblings I have, 3 of us were left handed, The eldest brother, eldest sister and myself (girl). My sister was ambidextrous and so am I. I things I do solely with my left hand is eat, write, sew, knit, crochet. With either hand I can weed whack, throw a bowling ball, bat (prefer right), shovel snow, and only with my right do I throw anything. Kind of all screwed up, LOL. None of my 3 children are lefties. My grandson is a lefty, but I notice he also does a lot with his right.

Re: The Left Handed Do Not Belong!
the left hand is controlled by the right brain, the seat of creativity. The right hand is controlled by the left brain, which deals with the real world.

In college I took a bunch of art classes and easily two-thirds of the class was left handed people because lefties make better artists, we have more creativity, more imagination. So next time you enjoy a good painting or a great song just think about that. The artist was probably left handed and right brained.

I always hated binders and left side spiral notebooks. finally the last couple years of college they had notebooks with the spiral at the top, I was in my glory :) Isn't it China or Japan the writes and reads right to left? I wonder if they encourage left handedness? Maybe other countries that do that as well.
