Isn't it just old bollocks from when we were using ink quills and lefties would smudge the ink from dragging their hand over it?
Any evidence of this sick and weird phobia predating inky mediums?

I'm a strange lefty. All one handed tasks I will use my left hand for. But with two handed tasks like swinging a bat, playing a guitar etc I use the right handed positioning. I could never figure that out. Though with guitar it was probably just because left handed guitars are more expensive

same here. i guess that figures into the ambidexterous tendency of lefties. i could shoot a pistol left-handed, but i tend to shoot with the right. i use a fork with my left hand, but throw with my right; i also bat right. "Nothing is true, everything is permitted." ~ hassan i sabbah

I was ambidextrous when I was a kid, then my teachers told me that writing with my left hand was wrong, so I stopped. Now I can't write for shit with my left hand but I do a lot of normal tasks with it. I also ride goofy when I snowboard  He led a double life. Did that make him a liar? He did not feel a liar. He was a man of two truths. - Murdoch, Dame [Jean] Iris
Kartikay is a character role that I play when I feel like escaping reality. Nothing I say under the pseudonym "Kartikay" reflects any of my actual life or personal history.

Same here nodice. I was writing left handed, but i had a strange teacher that punished us fro doing that. So i began writing right handed. Thing is ive always been right hemisphere in brain activity, but had a technical engineering job that was mostly left hemisphere work. Duality was a big deal in my life. Im now completely mixed up.
“Right here and now, one quanta away, there is raging a universe of active intelligence that is transhuman, hyperdimensional, and extremely alien... What is driving religious feeling today is a wish for contact with this other universe.”

haven't you ever heard of Piracetam"Piracetam appears to increase communication between the two hemispheres of the brain, and increases activity of the corpus callosum.[10][11]" I take aniracetam when I need to write papers. "Nothing is true, everything is permitted." ~ hassan i sabbah

didn't realize arboration in the Brodmann area was a disorder, i figured it was just a part of early neural development. "Nothing is true, everything is permitted." ~ hassan i sabbah

Oh Benzy, did you actually read those links I posted? The author's vocabulary is much larger than my own, and lots of the meanings I inferred through context.  He explains it way better. By the way, are you ticklish? Some things will come easy, some will be a test
