Being left handed I find this just the perfect metaphor. It is the way I think, it has always applied for religion, race, ethnicity and gender. Right handed people can sometimes be a real pain in the ass, I had a boyfriend who was constantly making denigrating comments about my handedness and he thought it was funny. The first time, yeah, after that NOT. I do not understand why it is so difficult to be inclusive for so many people in the world.

Well put! Good find!

This is a good metaphor! Some people are very limited because of their "handedness" or some other trait, perceived or real. Some people live with their limitations, so people overcome them. I am very grateful that I am ambidextrous (literally!), so for me, life has been a series of good opportunities no matter how presented.

There were no left handed desks when I was in school. Being ambidextrous, I always felt a little superior in that regard. Even though I write lefty, I throw righty, and can do several things with either hand. It is probably why playing drums came easier for me than others.

Never understood a left handed cigarette.
