Life holds many frustrations for left-handed people from the everyday items designed for right-handers to folklore saying they are in league with the devil.
So perhaps it is the result of dealing with such adversity that, according to researchers, they are angrier than the average person.
Researchers found that among lefties, the two hemispheres of the brain communicate more with each other so have more interaction with the parts which produce negative emotions.

Does that mean then that if you're ambidextrous you suffer from severe mood swings?

The SC schools tried to convert me too and failed. It was one more reason at an early age I came to resent educrats.

So perhaps it is the result of dealing with such adversity that....For crying out loud! I'm left-handed and just adjust to that reality as I'm sure 99.9% of other lefties do. Not once have I thought of it as "adversity" - it just is.

My mother lived to be 86. Till her dying day, she would try to make up for the fact I was left handed. She somehow considered it to be handicapped condition for which she was ultimately responsible.

Another victim group! We really needed another one! The slavery and 9/11 crap is getting old. Can we have a Lefty History Month? Something to make righties feel guilty about being righties.
Rubbish. Total rubbish.

Damn these scissors! People who watch me cut with right handed scissors always cringe because in order for me to make them work with my left hand, I to start out with the scissors at the far end of whatever I'm cutting and cut towards my body. It looks weird, but hey, it works for me.
