I'm a skeptic.
Why actually are people trained to limit their handedness to the right and consider left handed people different kinds of ways?

@SteelHands Left-hand writing of left-to-right text is not without difficulties, because your hand might smear the text you're writing.

@helenS That's a mythical carry over from the days of the split point fountain pens, the teachers using a warning about developing a "contortion wrist joint", and kids who's parents bought cheap pens or were too dumb to wipe off excess ink accumulating at the ball.
I never had a problem but I've been sufficiently scruitinized and admonished to have ample recognition about anything said on the subject.
It's a scholastic mystery by now. Science knows all about agreeable communicating reasoning brain and cautiously mute creative brain hemispheres.
I'm just pretending to be dumb about this.

@SteelHands Thank you – it was what they said why I had to learn to write with my "wrong" hand.
