So this is interesting. My moms side has 14 siblings and my fathers side has 6 siblings. I have 101+ cousins. In my family I have 6 siblings including me. And I am the only left handed. Seriously the odd one out 😂😂😂😂😑

@nightjourney Yup lots of difference with left handers, also left handers are much more likely to be either a genius or crazy person... there are less normal left handers.
Also, I believe I've heard (and I don't know if this is correct or not) but they used to kill left handers I'm some parts of the world.
I know left handers would get punished... my dad (who's now right handed) was punished in school with a ruler for using his left hand and my grandma swears he was left handed.
I've read some countries have punished left handers for culture things... as like the right hand was for food, and the left hand was for cleaning your bottom after going #2... so if you used your left hand to touch something, you could broke shame or disease and so they were punished.
So left handers have been attacked and other things which is why they believe there are a lot less left handers.
@nightjourney My mom loved buying books as gifts and always make sure they had a connection, usually an odd connection, so I've gotten several of left handed books (books about left handers) over the years.
Honestly my dad doesn't talk about it much, but he has mentioned it a couple of times, and I always thought he was ambidextrous and could do anything with either hand... but my grandma swears one of her boys was left handed... and all signs point that it wasn't my uncle. And my dad was ambidextrous, but almost always uses right hand and talked about a teacher talking a ruler to his hand a couple of times.
@nightjourney I think it's because I give you some calming effect as well as an addiction effect, also gives you something to do with your hands and getting you to do an activity.
In theory if you can make it interesting you can probably get a different activity like that going
