    Being right handed is sooooooooo mainstream!

    I like being left-handed because it's underground.

    I do both with my right. Not at the same time though. That would be dangerous.

    How does one define whether one is left-handed or not?

    Through the medium of masturbation;
    1. First get a stop watch and bring up whatever porn floats your boat on your laptop/PC.
    2. Now with your right hand proceed to "Knock one out/'av a fiddle in the downstair department" with your right hand. Start the stopwatch when you start pulling/pushing, and stop the watch when you come. This recorded time is T1
    3. Repeat Step 2 with your left hand, again recording the time. This recorded time is T2
    4. If T1 < T2 your are right handed
    5. If T2 > T1 ; you are left handed.
    6. If T1 = T2; you are ambidextrous, lucky you.

    Science is fun.

    Someone once told me that left handed people were the evil twins who ate the other twin while still in the womb, I'm a picky eater so I can't imagine that being true.

    My husband is left handed.

    His mother was left handed. His father right handed. My husband has 11 brothers and sisters (yes really!) only 2 of them are lefties, hubby and his sister who was born the year after him!:D

    His mother was regularly beaten by teachers in school and forced to write with her right hand. She only reverted back to her natural left-handedness when she left school aged 14.

    Was anyone else here treated badly because of their left-handedness????

    Being left handed is not all it's cracked up to be tbh - I haven't received any special powers or feel the need to fight crime. Unless you count the ability to submit smudged paperwork a special power?
