so here's a 100% accurate reenactment of everyday life of a left-handed person _____________ My Instagram: bit.ly/2Qo9rrI My nudes: bit.ly/2GZN1ur My merch: bit.ly/2CCq5jE
Me: I'm ambidextrous. But I was taught to use my right hand for writing. Everyone: So your write handed! Me: (writes with both hands) People: Just choose one!
I used to notice my sister was left handed like...at least once a month and each time, i was genuinely surprised "oh my God I'm left handed too", even tho I just "found out" a few weeks prior but it was like the first time every time. 😂😂😂
For many years I didn't know I was ambidextrous. People thought I was left handed because I did a lot of things left handed. So they would be surprised when I used my right hand to write. Now that Im older I do more things with my right hand.
Yea, you should see me cut with my left handed scissors....or use my left handed spatula...or play gin with my left handed playing cards....I could go on...look I’m hunting and pecking with my left index finger🙄
My friend is lefties and she had scar from her left palm. She told us that when she was still a child, her dad burn her left palm with cigs so she would stop using her left hand.
This was hilariously accurate. It is really interesting how so many right-handers react this way. Although on a more negative note, I have on quite a few occasions (typically older) people question why my parents didn't 'correct' that habit. I think I've looked up that supposedly it was a superstition of some kind, like a bad omen. I don't recall. Still, funny enough left-handers are pretty common now. I currently work with four (not including myself). Anyways back to the video, hilarious and the reaction of astonishment and mind-blown was so good! Have definitely experienced that! :D
I’m disappointed this wasn’t a rant about how she’s possessed by evil spirits and needs to be cleansed and forced to use her right hand for the rest of her life
True. Like it's like I'm asking how do you do that whit you're right hand? It's the sma efor both handedness bcouse us lefties don't know how fighties use their right hand and fighties don't know how lefties use their left hand. Get it now?
I didn't know people could be so weird on this. I noticed myself that my 3 nephews happened to be left handed. I wondered about hereditary, because I am right handed for writing, but sometimes can't help using my left side for other tasks.
Actually I never experienced people acting weird when they realised that I'm left-handed. But when I had to use some tool that was made for right-handed people ("normal people") and I said that I could not use it, they told me: "Well, just use your right hand!" Yeah, sure...
A lot of lefties in the comments: I keep smudging my handwriting! >:( The inconvenient truth: Stop dragging your hand through the ink then! XD You should hold your pen facing upwards, so your hand glides under the line that you're writing. While you're at it, please stop the weird reversed hooked wrist grip thing; you'll get carpal tunnel. ;) Source: me, a rightie who learned to write with my left hand too.
I had a teacher in the 3rd grade try to force me to write right handed, wouldnt accept any work done left handed and would berate me for it. People are ball slappingly stupid.
My leworęczni, jak my to robimy? Jesteśmy niesamowici :O !Jestem leworęczna, gdy byłam mała byłam obu ręczna, a teraz prawą całkiem nieźle sobie radzę. Ludzie są jak :o
I was playing Yahtzee with my family one night, and as I writing down a score, my step-mom goes, "I never noticed you're left-handed." I'd technically consider myself ambidextrous but preferring my left because when I was an 8y/o in 2nd grade, I actually broke my right wrist, so I had to force myself to write left-handed because of the cast. For some reason, I just never went back to using my right after that even though I use it for plenty of other things.
There are 9 people in my family and only one of us was born right-handed. The rest of us were born left-handed and were only trained to be right-handed while growing up. After me, my family basically got tired of "training" so my 2 younger cousins are still left-handed.
Is that your experience? I mean I guess it's something unusual, especially that we don't really have so many occasions to see people do stuff that would require the use of the main hand today, but are people really that shocked? I mean it might be interesting to learn about differences from one's own perspective but being shocked? I wouldn't have thought that's something that'd actually happen. I know it's an exaggeration, but still.
It's so funny, in my old class we were 5 lefties out of 30, and our teachers lost their mind the first few lessons. I've only ever met 2 left handed men though despite them being more common.
Also as someone who's done a bit of martial arts and archery and shooting (with both rifles and guns) it's always funny to suddenly switch because you're taught the right handed way but can still do it left handed.
When learning to write in 1st grade the teacher kept saying put the pencil in your right hand. Being left i thought I was doing something wrong and followed writing for 6 months with my right hand. My mother attended a teacher conference and asked how is her daughter doing as a lefty. The teacher replied I have no left hand students. The next day I was able to use my left hand. I still use my right hand to cut with scissors.
BTW every kitchen i have ever built in my housesthe dishwasher is placed to the left of the sink. Trying to load a right side dishwasher is like trying to put your socks on after your shoes are already on.
I'm a left-handed guitarist. Pro: Nobody is gonna say: May I borrow your guitar? Con: There are very few lefty instruments in online shops, in some stores not a single one!
Oh my god yes, as a left handed person yes people: OMG OMG UR LEFT HANDED?? THAT'S SO COOOOLLL Me: Yeahhhh??? WE SHOULD TURN THE TABLES ON THEM OMG UR RIGHT HANDED??!?!?!
I feel like all ambidextrous are left-handed people who had to learn to use their right hand to fit in, especially when it comes to using tools like scissors, etc.
That was a trip. Do people really make that big of a deal about it? Ha! Very passive aggressive video? Loved it. You have such a very watchable persona. Face. Etc. Are you a trained actress?.
"Oh wow I didn't know left-handed people could draw this well!" "I mean how are you left-handed and your handwriting looks beautiful?" I didn't make these up, I've been told both several times.
I like finding lefties that write like I do. My mom tried to switch me from being a leftie (for some reason) and so I don’t write like most lefties. I like being a leftie.
I'm left-handed and people don't act super weird when they find out but they still are like "oh cool so your left handed...ok then cool" something like that
I am left handed but ppl are always mad at me when I use anything (like scissors) with right hand. Like how can I possibly be so greedy to use the right hand for anything lol.
Friend: Oh wow you're left handed!? Me: We've known each for three years. Friend: But I've seen you play games with your right hand. Are you ambidextrous? Me: Nearly every game with motion controls are designed for the right hand. It's not hard to hold a controller and a press a button. And no, I'm not. Friend: But wow, that's so wierd, you're left handed. Me: Nearly 15% of the world is, it's really not that uncommon anymore.
Until I was 7 my hand writing was absolutely ineligible because I didn't know left-handedness was a thing and I was just copying what my teachers told us all to do lmao
☠☠☠it's so ridiculous I swear Also my mom was left handed but her dad forced her to use her right hand because all of her siblings were right handed... (plus I'm sure there was some stupid legend around lefties in my country) She would get hit in the right arm everytime she used it and I think it also happened at her school... wild
Oh my god, this is relatable lol "You're left-handed?? How do you write like that?? I could NEVER do things with my LEFT hand!" I really have to fight an eyeroll every time I am literally writing and someone asks me if I'm left-handed. "No Susan, I'm just pretending."
My mom was actually retaught from left handed to right handed... And she's 40. It's insane just how recent left handed persecution is.... I'm ambidextrous so that's fun.
