Thread: Lefty or Righty?

  1. #1

    Default Lefty or Righty?

    I don't think this has anything to do with politics...

    "CAMBRIDGE (CBS) — A new study by a Harvard University economist says lefties generally make less money than righties, and they may be worse off in other areas of life, too."

    You'd be amazed how creative and adaptable us lefties (handed) have to be to survive and thrive in a right-handed world. wonder how well the righties (handed) would do if they lived in our world.

    That sounds good for us "righties".

    I'm sure Bill Gates being right-handed brings our percentage up quite a bit...

    President Obama is left-handed.

    As was Bill Clinton, George Bush the daddy, and Ronald Reagan.

    I am ambidextrous but not naturally. Learned it swinging a hammer for my Grandfather as a slave laborer

    Funny thing is I can do everything left and right handed except athletics. Can't throw a baseball, football, swing a bat or club, kick etc. left handed/footed
    In Dog Beers I've only had two.

    I learned years ago from work-sponsored hardcore leadership/management self-discovery class taught/test analyzed by psychologist, that handedness and eyedness do not automatically go together, but that lefthanded logic-dominant person like myself has capability to shift into creative side of brain. gives me hope when dealing with curves life throws. I'm right-eyed/leftie otherwise, ambidextrous for some things. took me years to figure out my confusion about which way to hold bat, fishing rod, rifle, kick dodgeball, etc. explains all to me. I learned how to catch with right-handed glove playing catch with brother in back yard. only one glove in the family at the time. When I later tried to switch to left-handed glove, I couldn't. but I still throw quite well with left hand, as long as I throw righthanded glove off first!

    my paw is of the south... although I do most everything right handed, except use cutlery, write, or throw. and me being right-footed, makes my drumming look rather awkward. although more and more drummers are switching to open-handed setups, so it doesn't look so abnormal anymore!
