Exactly - but also fun to watch trying to write cursive.

I was surprised the article listed pedophilia as a mental disorder. Lately the Leftists have been crying "minor-attracted persons" who deserve our love and understanding.

Prisoners apply that when they throw short-eyes off the top tiers, saving us all tax money while sparing children life-long trauma.

That’s what I heard. I have brown eyes, but I doubt it would have mattered. It’s a good thing I didn’t inherit my mom’s green eyes.

I didn’t believe the anesthesia thing at first until the skin surgeon asked me the first time. After that I knew it was a real thing.

I can write with either hand,and DaVinci style as well. Sad that some are limited to just the right hand.

Let’s just say I was born in a better century than others with red hair, blue eyes, who are also left-handed.

I’m a left handed electronics tech for the Navy, for 47 years. 20 active, and the other 27 years as civilian.

Working with the sailors, it seems that there is higher percentage of lefty ET’s than the overall population.

Hire the left handed! It’s fun to watch them write.

I was once told that the combination of red hair, blue eyes and left-handed ended with the verdict of being a witch during the Salem Witch trials.

I would have automatically been condemned as a warlock.

Not only am I left-handed (mostly ambidextrous), but I am also a redheaded female.

I'm father to an ambidextrous, red-headed girl, and a left-handed son (who can usually pass for "normal"). I also have a left-handed grandson so it's apparent that I've passed along my 'sinister' genes.

Lol. Left brain right brain stuff is pseudoscientific balderdash. Shrinks can’t even describe what a mind is, much less fix one. Psychology is pure charlatanism and by actual measure is as helpful as shamanism. Yep. You may as well see a witch doctor as a shrink. The results are the same. Also psychology is slightly less effective than placebo. Lol. Throw psychological studies away. They are worse than useless

Two of my sisters are like that. .

My parents had 9 children, and only 3 are right-handed. All 4 of the boys are/were left-handed, 3 of us girls are righties, and the other 2, mentioned above, are ambidextrous. Both of those women can write simultaneously with both hands.

My first grade teacher tried to force me to be right handed.

My mom came in the next day and told her in clear, loud words, “He’s left handed! You don’t change that. Learn how to teach him as a lefty”!

Proud to be a lefty still!

I am actually the only right-hander in my house, my wife and both my kids are lefties.

As far as I know, I’m the only left-hander in the family. Neither parent nor grandparents were left-handed, so I don’t know what happened. I’m just glad I was born in a more modern time, or I wouldn’t have survived.
