Are left-handed people disadvantaged?

[stinks]

In my opinion there's disadvantage between left-handed people and right-handed people.
when I was young my mom forced me to write with right hand becauce I'm left-handed. I think that is disadvantage for left-handed peole because it is natural habit and people force them to change it. It's unfair for us, left-handed people.
Since left-handed people should be allowed to write with their left hand.

Dear stinks

I think you should change that rule which forces left-handers to write with right hand. Start from you family first, neighborhood, country, and this world at the end.

Psychologically speaking, it's not good for one's mentality to get forced to do something that is against his body nature.

To what extent are left-handed people disadvantaged in the world today?

What do you think?

Are we disadvantaged? Nope!

coz they are outnumbered? i think they're very artistic.. their right hemisphere is more developed than ours. they have their own advantages..

I think that using left hand to do things is really cool! many of my teachers and friends are left-handed. I like that.
There was a period of time when I practised writing in my left hand, but I just couldn't make it, hehe.

[lyphan]

i heard that left-hand people is more clever than right-hand people,is that true?

not clever but creative

That is right.
Napoleon is left-handed.
In my opinion, left-handed people have some more advantages.
It is clear that mobile phone be popular nowadays. Each person has at least one. Scientists have shown that your brain is affected more when you use your right ear to make a phone call. It is simply to see that the left-handed people usually use their left ear, not the right one.

I have noticed that most people that are right handed have neater hand writting :? . I think in some instances too because of the universal way that writing books are made it is easy for them to smudge their work. What do you think?

It might be possible, but refering to my right hand writing, it is not neat at all
And it became worse and worse since I'm used to typing on my keyboard

My son is ambidextrous. We have always thought that's an advantage. But my aunt, when she was young, her parents tied his left hand so could not use it. A barbaric thing.

I dont personally dont think so it makes any difference whether you are right hinded or left hinded or if there is any magneficence to be right handed. However in an article I have read that the right handed live 9 years more than as compare to the left handed people, Though I dont think so it can have any reality.

Some of these disadvantages can, in some cases, be related to future healthcare issues and access. According to a 2009 study published in Demography, left hand dominant children are liable not to perform as well academically as their right handed peers.

This.

When I write with a hard lead pencil, I end up getting graphite smudged all over my hands.

Also, sometimes it's super uncomfortable writing on paper that's attached to a binder. My hands get blocked by the rings when I try writing.

I'm left-handed and I never felt disadvantages and never thought about it before I saw this topic.

Some studies show that left-handed people showed an imbalance in processing emotions with their left and right hemispheres of their brain. Left-handed people have a higher risk of brain disorders like schizophrenia, dyslexia or hyperactivity disorders.

One of my friend is extremely intelligent always helped me with exams he is left handed.

Left-handed people actually have a huge advantage when it comes to sports like tennis.

When playing against somebody, you would normally assume that they are right side dominate so you will always aim for the weaker side that is the left.

[angelaalex]

Left-handed individuals aren't inherently disadvantaged; rather, they navigate a predominantly right-handed world. Embracing and accommodating diverse needs fosters inclusive. While some tools and setups favor right-handedness, societal awareness and adjustments can ensure equitable opportunities for everyone, regardless of their dominant hand.

[Mr Greg]

When it comes to education, left-handed students do have a bigger learning curve. For kindergarten teachers it is hard to tell which is the dominate hand, as we tend to get students to use their right hand by default.

Outside of education like sports, left-handed have a huge advantage especially in single player games.
