yeah, it was the Romans that believed left-handedness was a sign of evil, and it spread throughtout all of Europe. It was common practice around the globe to forceably switch left-handed people to right-handed (leading to disablities, such as studdering), and it's still a common practice in Germany (or so I have heard).

I don't think so (about the german thing). Anyway it's not just the romans, the muslims also have something against the left hand, something to do with hygiene, but I'm not exactly sure what it was.

[quote="OctoberBreeze (Jessica)"] I was reading this one article though that said that people used to think that people that were left-handed were evil and related to Satan.

I am right-handed, left-eyed, and neither left or right brained.

Uh-huh. The left hand is used for cleaning purposes, and so it is extremely dishonorable and disgusting to use your left hand to eat/handle food etc, which I can understand, because really, who would want to eat with the hand they wipe their butt with? WTF?

[quote]and neither left or right brained[/quote]

If you're right handed, then you're left-brained, since the left side of your brain is dominant, thus leading to the dominance of the right hand. But for people who use both hands...I'm guessing both halves of their brain are equally in control. I don't know.

[quote="amerowolf (Emily Heeb)"] so left handed people are bad...i wonder what that would make ambidextous people. hmm preacemakers maybe [/quote]
Peacemaker? Me?

I can do most with both. I can even play some guitar lefty(very, VERY, little guitar. Maybe one song.).

But I can write with both and bat with both and catch with both.

I'm right handed. My brain works equal on both sides. I'm right footed. My eyes are both the same strength. Anything else?
