All sounds a bit sinister to me.....
 
I'm left handed. It's dammed inconvenient especially when you never had left handed knives or scissors when growing up. My son is most unhappy because I taught his twin sons How to tie their shoelaces left handed.:laugh:
I expect that screwdriver s really screwed you up ;)

I got so used to 'normal' scissors that when I inadvertently picked up a left handed pair a colleague had I couldn't use them!

Let's see whether cyclists meet the 90-10 split. I work in social care, and from the informal "which hand are they writing with" count around meeting tables I'd suggest that in that arena it's more 70-30.

I suspect the number of left handed people is higher than reported as I personally know of a number of people, not to much older than me, that were actively discouraged at school to use their left hands.

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.

Same here. But can openers are a nightmare, especially the ones where you have to Bodge a hole in the top of the can and do a sawing motion. I always end up going backwards with those.

Anecdotally, at meetings of charity workers cack-handers can be in the majority. Sinister or what?
