I’m a left-handed woman who grew up just after the period of trying to change us. I feel very left-oriented throughout my body. Now after reading your article, I also feel very special as I give you my left-armed power to the people salute. Thank you. P.S. I’m not good with either math or music (except dancing) but pride myself on my skill with language.

Good thing you're left-handed too! One thing I like to do is greet people by shaking my left hand, something no one is used to. Their reactions are always funny.

We don't all have to be musical geniuses or anything like that, although there does seem to be some extra flair. You sure dance great!

In my youth I preferred to use mainly my left foot for playing soccer although I'm right-handed. Since then I try to use my left hand when the situation allows for it, which is really handy (ha), because I have habit of injuring my right hand/arm/shoulder. But what irks me the most is that I can't use a smartphone with my right hand

This is very interesting. It happens to more people than you think. It is common for us to have different preferences for different tasks. Some people are right-handed at basketball and left-handed at football, for example.

Beware of shoulder injuries, they are the worst!
