In school, have you ever seen a left handed desk? They don't exist.

Yes they do. I had to sit at one once, and then I knew how the lefties felt.

I have left handed scissors and made my wife select a silver pattern with a two sided gravy ladle.

Most measuring devices, including all tape measures are made for right handers. For a lefty, the numbers are upside down

I did have some classes in college with left handed desks but they were always in the back of the room.

Until my mother died, she was apologetic for my being left handed.

Cool! I never heard of this, but it will make my grandson happy.

My mom was ambidextrous as is my grandson. Both write left handed. My cousin was totally left handed, and we had to make sure we sat with her to my left every Thanksgiving, otherwise we were bumping elbows through the whole meal!

Leftie here!! Left-handed, that is, not politically LOL. I broke my left wrist last year and was pretty much SOL for the 10 weeks in a cast. I can’t do anything with my right hand.

I'm right-handed, but I seem to be disproportionally drawn to left-handers (for example, the first three girls I had the hots for were all left-handed).

There's something about you quirky lefties. ;-)

I’ve heard that lefties have minimal brain disfunction, that their mother had too much testosterone in the brain, and that everyone who is left handed had a twin who died in utero unless the leftie has a surviving twin.

What about those of us “Lefties” that have been FORCED to be “Righties” under the ignorant dictatorship of our parents and grandparents who thought it was a crime in the past to be a “Leftie?”

We deserve a day of recognition, too!

I swear I’m a “Leftie.” I do nearly everything left handed (reaching for stuff, dealing cards, buttering my bagel in the morning, picking my nose, etc.) other than writing...and my handwriting is SO bad it’s embarrassing!

Is there no “Day” for me? *SNIF*

My 7 year old daughter is left-handed. I’m ambidextrous.
