are you left-handed or right-handed?  |
|
Do you write using your left hand or your right hand? For left-handed persons: is it hard being a left-handed person? have you had experiences in which you see left-handedness as an advantage? For right-handed persons: do you always view being right-handed as an advantage over left-handed persons? have you ever thought that left-handed persons are special? in your personal opinion, is there any connection between skills and intelligence and left- or right-handedness?

1. dolce_vita78 (4383) | 8 months ago | I am right-handed. While I am right-handed, I can actually write on the board (I am a teacher) using my left hand. I do not really think that being right-handed is an edge over left-handed individuals. I do not know for sure if there is a connection between skills and intelligence and left or right handedness...

richiem (1413) | 8 months ago | good for you. i have always tried to write using my left hand but i can't write legibly and firmly. maybe i'm not trying so hard. writing with my right hand works for and i think i don't need to know how to right with my left hand. why and how did you learn to write using both hands? is it necessary in your job?
| |
|
|
dolce_vita78 (4383) | 8 months ago | It's not required. I do not know how but I just realized that I can write on the board (legibly) using my left hand. I can't write on paper using my left hand legibly though.
| |
|
|
richiem (1413) | 8 months ago | as i try to remember it, most of my teacher can write on the board legibly with both hands. i think it is more convinient in your profession if you can. you can easily position yourself in front of the board such that your students can see what you are writing.

2. lynnchua (1519) | 8 months ago | I'm a right handed person but I can still write with my left hand but the writing may not be as nice.
| |
| |
|
|
richiem (1413) | 8 months ago | do you want to learn to write with your left hand more clearly? do you find it interesting if a person knows how to right with both hands?
| |
|
|
lynnchua (1519) | 8 months ago | I find it interesting at first but its kind of hard using my left hand to write as I'm so use to my right hand.
| |
|
|
richiem (1413) | 8 months ago | i am also used to using my right hand. it amuse me when i first known about left-handedness. but through time, i just thought i don't really have to learn it.
| |
|
|
lynnchua (1519) | 8 months ago | I think its a matter of getting used to it.

richiem (1413) | 8 months ago | yes, maybe it is in our desire to harness our skills that we do excel, and not in the hand that we write with. but, do you think that because of they uniqueness, the tend to aspire more and thus excel more?

5. hellcowboy (3990) | 8 months ago | I am right-handed so I have to write with my right hand,I have tried writing with my left hand but it always ends up looking like I wrote it with my foot,and I dont see being right-handed as being an advantage over left-handed people,since it doesnt matter which hand you write with,we are all human beings,and I dont see a left-handed person as being special,and I think the only real difference is a little bit of your motor skills since I think right-handed peoples motor skills are controlled by the right side of the brain,whereas left-handed peoples motor skills are controlled by the left side of the brain.

richiem (1413) | 8 months ago | records show that most of the greatest boxers are left-handed or what they call "south paw" fighters. what is your opinion on that?
| |
|
|
hellcowboy (3990) | 8 months ago | I have never been into boxing,but I think it would make sense that left-handed fighters are better boxers,since most fighters are right handed,they are less likely to be prepared for someone who is left-handed to sock them one,have a good day,good luck in your life,and Happy Posting my friend.
| |
|
|
richiem (1413) | 8 months ago | yes, that would explain it. that would be an advantage for a boxer who is left-handed. but as i think of it, supposing a boxer always fights with a left-handed opponent, that wouldn't be an advantage for the lefty after all. have a nice day!
| |
|
|
hellcowboy (3990) | 8 months ago | Yeah I know if they are facing other left-handed opponents then they lose their edge,and dont have as much of an advantage,have a good day,and Happy Posting.
| |
|
|
richiem (1413) | 8 months ago | Good day, hellcowboy! Happy posting.

6. photographygirl73 (2004) | 8 months ago | I am right handed & always have been, but I have a brother & he is left handed. In fact he is the only one of us(4 altogether) that is left handed. Then I got married & I realized that my husband is left handed as well. I really don't think it matters what hand you use, because both my brother & husband are left handed & yet my husband is a lot smarter then my brother LOL.

7. sophialin (1149) | 8 months ago | i'm a right-handed,but i know some of history's most creative minds have been left-handed. In the category of art, both Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo were left handed. In the category of music, Ludwig van Beethoven was left handed. In the field of science and invention, you find Benjamin Franklin, Isaac Newton, and Albert Einstein. In the field of motion pictures, Charlie Chaplin. Bobby Fisher, the modern chess genius, is left handed. So too musical geniuses Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, and Wynton Marsalis. Each of the these persons had a mind so exceptional as to be head and shoulders above anyone else in their field. So even though it may be more difficult for a left handed person to live in a right handed world, lefties can know that they are in good company. Beethoven and Einstein had it tough, too.

richiem (1413) | 8 months ago | you always have a very interesting and informative response up your sleeve. thank you very much. i think maybe their being left-handed also contributed for their being known. history has an eye for peculiarity. do you think if they had been right-handed, would they be still as popular as they are now?

8. maquisa (260) | 8 months ago | im a left handed person,yup its really an advantage for me to write in a left handed mode,especially when im school hahha..i can see what they are writing but they cant see what i am writing,they say left handed are artistic and they used the right part of the brain...and they said also that most left handed have a good penmanship...
| |
| |
|
|
richiem (1413) | 8 months ago | at last, a left-handed respondent! nice to hear that being left-handed is an advantage for you. especially that you can use it in school. you almost made me laugh with your story. what do you think about the artistic part? is it true for you? i myself (a right-handed) don't have good penmanship. those left-handed persons i know have good penmanships.

9. bestre (1465) | 8 months ago | When I was young I was left-handed. My parents thought me to use my right hand since then. Now I consider myself as a right handed person. There are a lot of insights about left-handed persons and one of them is that they have an outstanding skill so they say it. It seemed like you are intimated when you compete with them. That's what I heard. In my opinion, I think they are alike for that matter. It all depends on how you wanted to develop your skill.
| |
| |
|
|
richiem (1413) | 8 months ago | as we have discussed in hellcowboy's response in number 5, left-handed persons may have the advantage in competitions because right-handed persons are not used to competing with lefties, on the other hand, lefties are used to competing with righties. but in other skills, i also believe it is in the right motivation and perseverance that we develop our skills. you may also check out known left-handed persons provided by sophialin in response 7. what do you think about this?

10. Essie119 (583) | 8 months ago | I am a lefty. I don't know where it comes from since no one else in my family is a southpaw! I've read all the things they say about us, but I don't feel like I'm more creative than anyone else. All I know is that most tools (like can openers and scissors etc.) are made for right handed people. You just have to learn to adapt or end up spending a lot of money for things made just for lefties. I actually do think that I'm special - just not for being a lefty. LOL
| |
| |
|
|
richiem (1413) | 8 months ago | so there are a lot of things made specifically for a lefty? i didn't know that. well, it's nice to know you always think you are special in other ways.
