About half the world's population is right-handed but has left-handed family members. Such right-handers have special neurological organization of language and thought.
This has implications for therapies and our understanding of the genetic bases for language.
Our brain imaging studies show that grammatical knowledge is represented differently if you have left-handers in your family. For example, when it comes to language, everyone’s brain responds to certain language tasks quickly.
But that response is much stronger in the brain's right hemisphere if you have left-handers in your family and stronger in the left hemisphere if you have no left-handers in your family

Clockwise, right handed. Cannot make it go other way
I write and eat right handed, throw and fire a long arm left handed, fire a handgun right handed.
Yeah, me too.

I will concede your way sounds more fun.
I’m a lefty, and the figure goes both ways for me. I can change it, but I can’t figure what I do with my eyes (or brain) to make it change. sometimes just a blink will do it.
Counter clockwise — look at the reflection.
everyone’s brain is slightly different, it’s the uniqueness God gave us.
No but I start a notebook from the back.
I want me some reparations. I spent grade school in those freaking right handed armchairs.
Been suffering from PTSD ever since.
Thank God someone invented spincaster reels that have reversible crank handles.
But this driving on the right side of the road crap needs to end! /s
I see it both way myself.
Left handed pretty much on all things. I learned to use a mouse with my right hand though early on.
There is a guy in one of my far flung areas that’s left handed and has his mouse set for left hand use on left side.
It drives me crazy sometimes.
My grandmother was totally left handed..........I came along left handed but that was taboo at that time and my daddy changed me to right handed. No wonder I get things bassackwards......just damn!...;)

I’m right handed, moderately ambidextrous and can seem to only seem to see counterclockwise. My son in SO left handed. If that kid lost his left arm, he’d be done!
My totally left handed kid only sees counterclockwise, interesting. Btw he is right eye dominant as well?????
[Counter clockwise, but I can switch it.]
Yes. Interesting how the mind works. (I’m left handed)
[I certainly object to all the right handed items I am forced to buy]
especially scissors.
It’s odd. I can’t make the figure reverse while looking at it. However, by focusing on the foot reflection I can reverse the direction.
I can switch between clockwise and counterclockwise.
Nice boobs!
