I Am Lefthanded

The "sin" Of Being Left Handed... For many years, it was considered a curse to be left handed. We were a mystery..one that no one wanted to solve. The problem with being left handed is that noone could teach me how to do anything..And the problems I encountered in a right handed world!  The ink that gets on the side of my hand when i write..awful..and the notebooks would not accomodate my hand..I know many left handers write tilted but I write straight up and down...
Well, because of my left handedness, I do everything right handed but write and eat. I bat right handed, i crochet right handed. I throw right handed. all because no one could teach me otherwise..
There are 3 in my family that are left handed and 3 are right.

Wow you guys really gave me an education... My oldest brother is a lefty, he injured his hand accidentally, while he was in the first couple years of learning to write. He was a lefty but got the retraining that most teachers gave to get them to write with their right hands.Well they had started with him but now the right hand was down for a while so he had to switch.. results ..terrible writer can hardly read his longhand He Got the worst our school system had to offer plus the accident.. note I don't think that most teachers retrains left handed kids to write with their Right hands any more ..I could be wrong.

I also was a lefty, but was never allowed to be a lefty, so everything I do I learned as a righty.
I do have trouble shooting a gun, because my dominant eye is my left eye.
As a pair, we will be wonderful. We can hold my left hand, your right hand and still have our "good" hand free.

All my maternal grandfather's grandsons, and greatgrandsons are left-handed. Some one years ago said there is an old wife's tale lefties are the surviving twin after the gestating mother absorbs one child in-uterine? I know when my son was born, the doc suspected he was a twin.

only lefties have the great opportunity to become ambidexterous and would that be a good thing
@heehoo1 Why? Five America presidents were left-handed. One James Garfield was ambidextrous and could transcribe the spoken English word into Latin and Greek at the same time with both hands. True!
No wonder he was assassinated. Clever bxstard! lol.😊
