hmm well, my sis is left handed and shes a total f`n idiot lol

so who knows

I think i read somewhere that more monkeys are right handed than left. So it must be something innate, as well as what us humans are taught.

I recently worked 7 months at a residential facility for prisoners (non-violent offenders) in a work release program. My job involved very frequently having prisoners sign in and out of the facility in my presence. I was astounded to find that again and again, many of them were left-handed. I would guestimate at least 70% of them were left-handed. The population of residents frequently changed as many people got out and we received new people, and the frequency of my seeing left-handed prisoners never changed --- it was like every third person was left-handed. I'm not saying that people with left-handedness have criminal tendencies, but do wonder if anyone has done research on this specifically.

I am left-handed for writing and eating, but that's about it. I catch and throw better with my right hand (that caused problems with baseball) The first time I shot a gun, I tried to do it right-handed but quickly realized that my left eye was dominant. BTW, I also hook my hand around while writing and was in advanced classes in middle and high school.

I'm left handed and loving it.

Because whenever I can do something better than someone else I attribute it to my left-handedness, as that's something they can NEVER be.

Spouting statistics of the % of left handed US presidents vs % of popultion also annoys them.

Gives me a nice little power trip.

(not that I beleive any of it )

I am very left handed. Can't say I'm a genuis or smart since I've never been in any advanced classes in my life. I am terrible at math. But then again, I never really applied myself to my studies and still got by with a 3.7 GPA. So who knows. I come from a very right handed family with the exception of my father who passed before I was weaned off bottles. If it wasn't for my sister being ambidextrous I wouldn't have had anyone to teach me to write. I am so very left handed that the only purpose I can find for my right is using scissors and holding things. Other than that, my right hand is useless. As for the serial killer bit, haven't killed anyone and don't have any wishes to do so. However, many people are afraid of me when they first meet me. And when I was in school I had people tell me that they were still afriad of me and thought I was going to shoot up the school. I had a good laugh at them but was truely hurt inside. How could anyone think that about me? I'm a nice person Today, I still give people the creeps but enjoy that quality. In summary, left handed, not a genius or a serial killer.
