Loading ...Thanks for the poll. So far it appears there are many more lefties here than the usual quoted figure of 10%. I hope we get more to participate. 20 total pollsters seems kinda anemic.
I’m the only lefty in a family of 7. Both parents and all siblings are right handed. During WWII I was raised the first few years by my grand parents since my dad was at war in the navy and my mom worked in a munitions factory in another state. I was my grandparents disgrace in those days. I was spanked, for it. Whipped for it, had my hand tied down to make me use my right hand, etc. I was only two when all this happened but I remember much of it clearly. When they tied my hand down I stopped eating and drinking, and after a couple days they finally gave up and accepted that “the stubborn little brat” would always be their disgrace. LOL!!! Lots of cliche’s that say you gotta be stubborn in life to be a winner. Thanks Grandpa and Grandma, I learned it from you.
