Left Handed People

[xdnax]

hi, im new to this forum, but not new to the work of david icke.
i've just got a quick question really, about the "left brain prison".
now, as i understand it, if you are left handed you are "controlled" (sure there's a better way of putting it!) by the RIGHT side brain and vice versa.
i was just wondering how much of a difference, if any, this makes, and i was wondering if this has any connection with the fact that in olden times, children who wrote naturally with their left hands were forced to write with their right hand. was this just a "norm" thing or anything deeper??

thanks

I was forced to write with my right hand.

my 2nd grade teacher really tried to get me to write with my right hand, but i was too stubborn! :p

being left handed myself, i took an interest a long time ago, and found that the whole right-handed chauvinism developed because supposedly jesus sat at the right hand of god, lucifer sat at the left hand. so, the term "sinister" was applied to left handed people.

the left brain is rational, linear. the right brain is intuitive, emotional, holistic. that's a generalization, but reasonably accurate, i believe. so, the left brain trap is pretty much what the west has been in for over a thousand years. again, a generalization, but one that i think serves at a cursory glance.

[neondestiny]

Very interesting especially what you have written in regards to the left handed people being associated with luciferic conciousness and the intuitive vs the analytical.
I am ambi-dextrous (sp?) although I have been brought up to write with my right hand, I still eat left handed, so would this mean that both sides of my brain are equally being used?
I am dual in the fact that I am both intuitive and analytic.
I am artistic and creative, but also really good at mathematics and problem solving. Could this possibly be because I am ambidextrous and have sort of exercised both sides of my brain throughout my life?
(I can also use my feet to pick things up and open car doors, but that is a whole other story, which part of the brain though would I be using to do this? The left? the right? or both?)
I have not or don't really remember reading in David's book about the left hand so will be watching this thread now to see what else gets posted here, once again very interesting thanks for posting :)

Trust me although I have been brought up to write with my right hand, I still eat left handed, so would this mean that both sides of my brain are equally being used? This does not make you ambidextrous at all. I'm a drummer and the work you have to put in to be able to do complex rhythms with your non competent hand is mind boggling, you actually have to train the neural pathways to run a different course and this is no easy feat all all. Ive been playing Drums for twenty years and I'm still way off perfecting total independence from left hand to right.

That's probably a good practice for integrating mind and body. For me it's difficult to even do simple tasks with the left hand, such as using the mouse on the computer with my left hand. I think I will practice doing tasks with my left hand a bit more. Eckhart Tolle's practice of putting awareness into the body is also helpful I have found. Maybe Tolle's practice can be combined with consciously directing one's awareness between left and right inside the body.

Thanks for posting this, I had my opinion about this when I heard about what the left and right brains are involved with. Since the right brain is involved with things like spirituality, intuition, etc, it's no surprise that illuminati/society tries to get you to be right handed and right legged. Especially in the older days, when teachers used to beat kids if they were using their left hand, not to mention life was made harder for left handers.

I don't know why I became left handed/legged, but I'm glad I did. Yes, I know, ambidextrous would have been better, you've gotta balance shit out, etc etc...:rolleyes:

I too play drums, right handed drum though, but I'm not bad left handed either. That's just a matter of practice, but it's dam fun! I wish I started off playing left handed drums, because it's your left hand that does most of the work, initially (when you first start learning). It would have been bloody hard to start off learning left handed, drum lessons would have been confusing, watching other drummers and tuition would have been confusing, etc. That's one way that society is pushed into using their right hand/leg more.

The world isn't really made for left handers (and they don't want it to be), though it's a lot better than it used to be.:cool:

More on this later:cool:

I suppose I'll have to suffice with my shitty right handed abilities ;)

[i am all i am]

G'day Xdnax,

Welcome to the forum.

This is something that I posted on another thread, but I think it may have some relevence to this thread also. It is also one of the reasons that we shake hands with our right hand.

I've also wondered about this topic and why we call ourselves right-handed / left-handed, when we obviously have two hands. Why not call ourselves two-handed ? It makes a lot more sense as it's actually the truth.


Here's a cross reference for you from 'The Greatest Spiritual Secret of the Century', by Thom Hartmann, pages 161, 162, 163 and 164. It probably refers to Judas Krestus.

" Joshua raised his left hand. "Two thousand years ago, before toilet paper was invented, people used their left hands to clean themselves. They'd then dip their fingers into a bowl of water to clean them, but their left hands were never really clean and they knew it. You know that?"
"I never thought about it," Paul said, dizzied by the sudden change of topic.
"It's true," Joshua said, putting his hand back on the arm of his chair. "In fact, it's still that way in most of the Third World. Today, this is how about four billion people live, without toilet paper. And in those lands today, as back then in Israel, the most terrible and vicious way you could insult a person would be to touch him with your left hand. Even gesturing with the left hand was banned in most societies. Among the Jewish Essenes, gesturing with the left hand would earn you a week's banishment from the community. And if you wanted to really insult somebody, to totally humiliate him, particularly in public, you would slap him with your left hand. You understand?"
"Yes," Paul said. "Like giving somebody the finger today."
"More like giving them the finger and spitting in their face," Joshua said. "Or throwing urine on them. Remember where that hand was. You'd only do that to a person you knew couldn't retaliate, right?"
"Unless you wanted your butt kicked."
"Right. So slapping somebody with your left hand, in ancient Roman society, was both the ultimate insult,and also something that was only done to the most powerless people. The Jews whose land was occupied by the Romans, for example. There was no recourse for them, unless it was to punch that person, which would mean they'd get the death penalty for hitting a Roman citizen. You understand?"
"Yes," Paul said.
"Unless they could get that Roman to hit them with his right hand, which meant that a fight was engaged. Then they'd be justified to fight back. But the Romans didn't hit slaves with their right hands, they insulted them by slapping them with their left hands and then laughed at the humiliated slave who couldn't slap back."
"Got it."
"So," Joshua said, "which cheek would I strike you on if I wanted to humiliate you by slapping your face with my unclean left hand?"
Paul looked at Joshua's left hand, and then visualised it moving through the air, imagining where Joshua's left palm would fall. "You'd hit my right cheek if you swung your left hand."
"The ultimate vicious and humiliating insult, hitting your right cheek with my left hand,"
"Yes."
"And if you then challenged me to hit you with my right hand, that would be a challenge to my authority if I was a slave holder or a powerful person in your society, right?"
"Absolutely. You'd be saying, 'If you have any courage, you'll start a legal fight with me where I can fight back. You'll hit me with your right hand. I dare you'"
"And yet it would not be hitting back, it would be merely exposing the evil of the left-handed slap for what it was."
"I understand," Paul said.
Joshua said, "Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That resist not evil with evil: but whosoever shall smite the on thy right cheek, turn and offer him the other also." "



With LOVE.

i am all i am, good post.
These stupid customs, and why people don't question them. It's just another way people have been manipulated. I think left sided body activity in all things is important (as well as the balance).

I went to egypt in 2000, did you know that in egypt (and probably in the whole arab or muslim world), they don't use toilet paper:eek: I saw our taxi driver pull over to take a piss, when he finished, he wiped his cock with a bunch of rocks:confused: (sorry for the change of topic)

People should be using their left hand as much as their right hand, and not let stupid customs and dogmas/superstitions get in the way. If you can't clean your asshole properly, you're a sick fuck. (I'm jumping all over the place here):cool:

Egypt is another story though, you won't believe it.

Thanks Father Ted, I originally posted it in the 'religion' thread.

Does that mean in Egypt, when you have a piss, it rocks your cock ?

I agree with on the stupid custom thing. In Wing Chun Kung Fu we were taught to use both sides equally. The first form is used to create independant function of both sides. A funny thing to do is, when you go to shake hands with someone, hold out your left hand. It freaks some people right out.

Talking about independence:

assuming that you're driving on the left side of the road; next time as you're driving, and you're going through a roundabout (not turning left or right), place your left hand on the passenger seat, and drive through it, as you normally would. Try it!

[xdnax]

thanks for the input guys. i definately believe being left handed makes a difference though, as i am very creative. i write poetry and im also a rapper, and have always tended to see the world in a different light to everyone else.

few examples from when i was 17:

A ROSE

- dedicated 2 the Human Race

the rose smells sweet, despite it's name
despite it's many colours,
u can mix them, they will grow
4 they r the same as 1 another,
the red roses r abundant
but don't c themselves superior,
so despite our advanced state
we r merely inferior,
that's all that need be said
needless bloodshed in the flower bed,
now everythin is red
including roses 4 the dead.

BLIND IS BETTA

if the world was blind
no1 would know no difference,
weight, gender, appearance
our status, our pigmant,
would all go unnoticed
without visibility,
& they say
bein blind is a disability??!!

if the world was blind
there would be no war,
every1 would be equal, there4
there would be no poor,
& they say
bein blind is a disability,
but 4 a perfect world
i'd give my sight willingly.

hope you like. thanks again.

arrrrrrhhhhhhh!!! someones hijacking my post!!!! GEORGE!!!!
lol

go ahead. i was born left handed and have remained that way. by the way, i'm sure ppl have noticed this, but if you try writing with your non-dominant hand, it looks like the work of a 2 year old. therefore, i'd imagine it'd only take practice to be ambidex..(not gonna bother tryna spell it. i can spell DYSLEXIA, that is enough reassurance of my literary skills for me!)

[tru3]

People should be using their left hand as much as their right hand,

oh i do, my friend i do! ;)

seamus,

when i was really small (20-30 months?) i hurt my right arm, my mom said, and i then started using my left.

my son was a switch hitter in baseball; he was right-handed, but since i could only bat left-handed, that's how i taught him.

we are adaptable, i guess....

[seamus]

That's cool! Hey I bet there are a lot more leftoids in the icke-aware circle than is generally found... seems like it here anyway..

Hi there

Count me in, I'm a 'leftie' too :) I also agree that there will be quite a few of us here - be interesting to see the final list.

My son started using his left hand when he was tiny but is now right handed (he just switched on his own for no apparent reason).

bowlers have a definite advantage, because right handers sand the lanes in a way that helps a southpaw get more spin. left handed hitters in baseball have an advantage against right handed pitchers, because they get to see the ball from the center part of their field of view.

sorry, i don't know about australian rules football. :confused: i played rugby for 12 years, and i still don't get your sport, guys :D

[limelady]

thanks for the input guys. i definately believe being left handed makes a difference though, as i am very creative. i write poetry and im also a rapper, and have always tended to see the world in a different light to everyone else.

Come on guys.....do you think being left-handed makes you more thpecial?? :rolleyes:

I'm not wanting to blow my own horn here :p but to make my point, I am right handed but I'm musical, I write (songs and articles) I paint (art), I design houses, clothes, landscapes, and various other things, I invent things, and I have a vivid imagination capable of thinking in concepts. Shall I go on?

Being a multi-faceted creative person isn't exclusive to left-handed people, in fact I have had two men in my life who were lefties, and you wouldn't have gotten more left-brained people either....neither of them are talented musically or artisticly, and one of them is a routine person with little or no ability (lacking imagination) to be creative whatsoever!....bless his cotton socks ;) Conversely unlike their father's my three daughters from these relationships are talented and creative thinkers....they also all three of them right-handed! Of course their creativity and imagination could also be becaue they are women :D

But this probably better explains why whether one is left-hand or right-hand really doesn't matter..........

So if I'm Left-Handed, Does This Mean My Right Brain is Dominant?

No, hand dominance is not directly related to brain dominance. And, remember, just like you don't do everything with only the one hand, so your brain doesn't do everything with one side, although there is generally a preference. However, a significant number of artists have been and are left-handed, more than would be suggested by the one-in-ten occurence of left-handedness in the population. While those who are left handed do exhibit a greater propencity for right-brain dominance, being right handed does not preclude your right brain from dominanting.

I just thought I'd pop in and stirr you up a bit :D

[seamus]

It is my opinion that being born left-handed and forced to change to right (or vice versa) is a great way to get creativeness and analysis in your makeup. My father and brother are both left-handed, somehow my mother's catholicism got the better of her and she made me switch.

My brother is a software engineer, formerly a wind tunnel designer, formerly a Ford prototype mechanic, etc. My dad was an automotive engineer for most of his working life. He's retired now. Neither of them have much interest in going beyond their areas of accomplishment. I don't want to go on about my giftings, but let's just say that they are more diverse. You know, jack of all trades, master of none. :p

i played rugby for 12 years, and i still don't get your sport, guys

That's because rugby's shit. It's shit to play (very insulting, when you look at the positions, and the fact that some certain positions over others allow people to have more of the action), and boring as hell to watch;)

The real australian sport is ausie rules football, watch that.

Limelady, most right handed musical instruments, especially stringed instruments like the guitar, violin, mandolin etc, utilize the left hand a SHITLOAD more than the right hand. They should be called left handed (instruments). Then you got instruments like drums, piano, which utilize both, which is a good thing. People who play these instruments are using their right brain more, as well as thinking with their right brain.

Those two left handed men in your life probably didn't do too much with their left hand either:D

Don't worry, we know that being left handed doesn't mean that we are more spiritual, because it depends on the individual, but using your left side of the body does helps with right brain thinking. Doesn't mean that a right handed/legged person doesn't use their left side of the body, or separately, think with their right brain.:cool:

(If I wasn't a left sided person, I probably wouldn't have written such an intelligent post:D )

[neondestiny]

Not sure which side of the line I fit here so I will let you decide.

Originally started writing with the left hand, was encouraged to change to the right at school so now write right handed but still can write left handed to some degree.

Things I do exclusively left handed.
Playing cricket
Eating
Knitting (yes I have my granny licence) lol

Right handed
Writing
Guitar
Painting/drawing/sculpture
crotchet (again my granny licence is in full working order)
Sewing
Calligraphy
Fishing

Things I use both hands or feet equally as well
Playing pool or billiards for some people here
Typing
Skateboarding (goofy and natural)(not that I am brilliant at either mind you lol)

Then there is the ability to use my feet (through my own training) only really useful when picking up the kids toys whilst having my hands occupied.
So which side of the line do I fall, or do I just sit in the middle and twiddle my thumbs by myself??? lol

What about real football (soccer). Ever since we made the world cup finals, there have been bigger and bigger crowds going to the new A League that has only been going for two years. It's actually becoming a threat to the "bigger sports in Australia"

I love going to A League games, Finally for me, a long suffering fan of this sport, the world cup finals have captured the imaginations of heaps more people who never experienced the excitement of football before. Harry Kewell is left footed, well both footed, one of our best players when he's fit

[father ted]

I like soccer, but the offside rule is a real drag. Teams can't go forward unless the opposition lets them, where's the sense in that? did you have look at the wikipedia link? It's also got a list of soccer players that are left handed.

i watch it, but it's kind of like a dog watching television! :D i have no clue what's going on. and hey, man, where's the damn crossbar???;) what's that all about? lol

i was a lock; talk about no respect! lol. we're the pack animals of the sporting world. it's worse in american football; i played offensive/defensive tackle for nine years through high school, and you never get to touch the ball, unless there's a fumble. and, no one knows who you are, unless you get called for a penalty.

the "big guys" suffer in silence...:)

[i am all i am]

There are two people that I have heard of that, within their sport, were supreme.

1. Walter Lindrum - snooker and billiards. They changed the rules to try and beat him.

2. Heather Mackay - 13 years undefeated as world female squash champion.


Not sure if that's how you spell Mackay.
Does anyone know which hand was predominant for them ???

I'm left-handed as well. Had no problem in school except for some
of the older Christian Brothers who told me I should be right-handed.

And one Christian Brother who wouldn't let me play Hurling ( now that
really is the best and fastest game in the world !! although only the
Irish members here will probably know of it - which is a pity. It's a bit
like hockey but you can use your hands and it is a hundred times
faster.)

Anyway, this Christian Brother was convinced that as left-handed,
I was in some way related to Satan and wouldn't let me play until I used
my right hand to grasp the hurley.

That guy was seriously disturbed in many ways - although among the Christian Brother he was probably in good company.

I was born Left-handed and know one has ever said you should write with your right hand or tried to encourage me to use it.
Even though im using my right hand to use the mouse its pretty useless.
I tried to write with it for laugh but it looked like a drunken spider with ill-footing boots and arthritis had walked all over the page.Very occasionally i will get called "gawky-handed".Its strange though that the mouse feels more comfy in my right hand than the left.

Hi peeps...

I'm a healer & I use a form of kinesiology to find stresses in the body (tapping into the body's wisdom by using muscles as a divining rod). The amazing man that taught me (Brian Jenner, was in Oz for amny years, heard of him Father Ted?) found out that being switched from left to right hand could be extremely stressful for the body, so I always check it & if it is a stress factor I re-programme the body to adjust.

The body is predominantly a left or right sided field electromagnetically, & if this is interfered with it can be a stress. One way the body communicates this is by having accidents always on the same side of the body... any people experienced this? Especially those that have been switched?

I believe that there is a real agenda in programming people to be right handed. Right is masculine, active, linear, like our society. Also when things are good we say it's 'ALL right', reinforcing the right aspect. Hmmm...

What if you do things with both your hands, like drums, piano etc? What if you are not actually switching hands, but learning something new with the other hand, or simultaneously learning something new with both hands? I play drums as a hobby but it's a part of my life, where I use the right hand and foot more than the left hand/foot but I still use both of them a lot. I'm left sided predominantly, writing, throwing, kicking, etc. I personally have not had any accidents at all, not major ones anyway.

Which side are you supposed to have the accidents on?

EXACTLY!!! exactly, exactly, exactly!

actually yes i have. most of my injuries have been on my right side. i hurt my right arm as a toddler, and started using my left. i had a 7-inch long splinter go through my right hand when i was twelve, had a piece of jagged glass puncture the heel of my right thumb when is was 20, had a pin put in my right middle finger after someone tried to kick a football out of my hand while playing goalie when i was 32.

huh. this is really remarkable, now that i think about it.

my understanding is that holographically, the right side represents the yang/male: manifesting, active. the father. let me tell you, i definitely have father issues! lol according to louise hay's "you can heal your life", the hand is about grasping and letting go, and about different ways to deal with experience.

believe me, i played contact sports for 20 years, and i've never broken a bone in my body. so, i see a definite pattern in my history and physiology.

thanks for the great insight, unicorn! :)

i'll witness for kinesiology, too! ;)

I play drums as a hobby but it's a part of my life, where I use the right hand and foot more than the left hand/foot but I still use both of them a lot. I'm left sided predominantly, writing, throwing, kicking, etc. I personally have not had any accidents at all, not major ones anyway.

Which side are you supposed to have the accidents on?



EXACTLY!!! exactly, exactly, exactly!
I dont know if there is any importance or relevance in either being left or right handed,maybe its just a quirk of nature.ive had no problems being left-handed.At school i was sometimes asked "whats it like to write left-handed",i always said "probably exactly the same has you writing with your right hand"

[richmick]

I'm left-handed as well. Had no problem in school except for some
of the older Christian Brothers who told me I should be right-handed.

And one Christian Brother who wouldn't let me play Hurling ( now that
really is the best and fastest game in the world !! although only the
Irish members here will probably know of it - which is a pity. It's a bit
like hockey but you can use your hands and it is a hundred times
faster.)

Anyway, this Christian Brother was convinced that as left-handed,
I was in some way related to Satan and wouldn't let me play until I used
my right hand to grasp the hurley.

That guy was seriously disturbed in many ways - although among the Christian Brother he was probably in good company.

Good grief, you didn't go to Artane did you.?

Egypt is another story though, you won't believe it.


I had a bizarre experience in the Khufu Chamber in February '06 Father Ted...Egypt is Many stories...Open a thread..and let's see:)

[father ted]

I have opened a thread in the mysteries section about egypt.

[shadowmoon]

Ressurecting this old thread.

Whenever I meet another left hander I do feel an affinity with them on our shared handedness, I don't think right handers ever get to say "Hey you're right handed too cool"! :D

There is some reason for us to be so inclined to the left hand, as why nature would make us so otherwise?

[onlycrazy]

Yep Im left handed too....:eek::D:D

[ozpixie]

I am a leftie too.
From what I have been told the origin of trying to force us into being righties has a religious origin. Nuff said.

My right hand is near to useless in terms of doing anything dextrous.
I had to train myself not to look at a book or magazine from the back to front.
I had to teach myself to knit and crochet.
I struggle to turn the car into a left hand carpark.
When I shoot, I use my left eye to aim.
Apart from that and the fact that I am totally hopeless with anything to do with mathematics I am fine.
I could read and write before I went to school and have always been good with languages.

It's quite fascinating.

Me too. :)

I saw our taxi driver pull over to take a piss, when he finished, he wiped his cock with a bunch of rocks

[convulsions for breakfast]

Just like to add I’m a leftie too.....useless with my right hand and foot....strictly right brained 2...sometime’s I’m not sure if this is a good thing....for one when playing da guitar I always need my trusted left handed guitar or I almost always embarrassing myself trying to strum a right handed guitar upside down sometimes I wish I wasn’t so complicated lol ...done a few brain test’s 2 and when it comes to being strictly right brained I just find it so so hard to repeat anything I’m shown...to sit down and learn someone else’s music really scrambles my brain lol but I love strumming away making up my own things.....I wouldn’t necessary say I am more creative than the left brained person...that’s a kind of a elites view....but I know when it comes to playing music my brain tries to direct me make my own tunes rather than play someone else’s....it think a good balance between the brains would be better...knowing how to switch in between them would be the job...being right brained I think I live in a fantasy world most of the time....but ya know what, thinking about it, I wouldn’t chance it for the world.

I haven't bothered reading this whole thread, so I don't know if it's already been mentioned, but I read somewhere a few years ago (probably about 10 yrs back) that every time an ultrasound scan is taken of a baby while it's in the womb, it changes the child's orientation re which hand it favours.

It was a newspaper article about some scientific research that had been conducted on the subject, & since it was in the MSM who knows whether it was accurate or not!

The gist was that everyone's naturally right-handed. If you're subjected to one scan, you're then left-handed etc, so any odd number of scans would render you left-handed, while unscanned people, & those who'd had any even number of scans would be right-handed.

What did strike me as odd though, was that it didn't offer any explanation for this, and nor did it make any reference to the scans' effect on the brain or the relevance of the brain's layout with regard to right/left handedness.

[holylucifer]

I don't know i remember first school one teacher tried to get me to write with my right hand but nah.

I wanted left.

Actually if you want to know the secret, it deals with the sub subconscious and that is linked to the time domain, this is now and that the future changes and the past changes but you cannot change what has already been done.

You can seek and get knowledge using the sub concouis, the secret of life is intelligence and that the very thing behind all of it is zero point/energy from the vaccum which is less then nothing yet more than anything is, like those spins and everything has the power to create and this power to create deals with those spins.

this left hand thing and right hand thing is wrong i see it differently, the left hand and right hand deals with the higher self/ lower ego self which are opposites and to understand this you are an angel house and that you need to read the way homeorfacethefire.info

I can sense from some people who has more sub concious ability than others, mine is realisticly well more senseative, sensitive people are more into this area.

People who are more sub concoius know that there is something deeply lacking with the meaning of everything unless you find the truth..

My iq is 160 through a person in science, i call it the sub concious connection to the time domain more accurately suited.

Love is magnetism and what you don't know is what you touch feel whatever you actually personalise it varingly.

You can interact with well anything and what you see is a mirror of your self.

When you out your finger tips pointing you feel that.

Your body even though it is not magnetic, is dia magnetic.

Just by your thoughts if you feel it is working then it will be.

I can sense irreyness and know that that cat can infect something and it did and was parker and a scientist says it sounds looks errie and is errie.

Whatever you want to call it, i call it the subconscious.

Your subconscious varingly is the same as mine but i wanted a much deeper solution think about that, i went to jahtruth and know full well who he is................................................ .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. ..................

I was forced to write with my right hand.

I was forced to write with ma left hand.:D

I fractured my right forearm playing football when I was at Secondary School. Plastered up from my elbow and all my hand.
This was in the mid 80s. My Maths teacher refused to take my excuse for being a righty and basically told me to write with my left hand, I couldn't but that bastard taught me a life lesson alright and now I can write with my left as well as my right, it probably had a balancing effect on me on many levels as well. Became a two footed footballer and got into the school football team in my 5th year.


So Mr Shipman my psychopathic Maths teacher thank you very much, you were an absolute twat but thanks anyway.:D

[flickflack]

I have just noticed that Barack Obama seems to be left-handed! Most of the politicians are right-handed, I think.

[moonflower]

I was the only left-handed in my class and I remember being more or less forced to try and write with my right hand but I just reverted back. Well that experience gave me a good first-impression of how school was going to be - I hated it from start to finish!

[drakul]

I am left-handed. 2 out of the 4 of kids in my family are lefties so that is 50% as opposed to the 10% societal norm. In addition, my youngest brother started life ambidextrous but gradually became right-handed.

My entire family is RH- bloodtype.

I always wondered what percentage of left-handed people are also RH- bloodtype? Any here?

[emroars]

I was born left handed but was never forced to change. And I have beem more spiritually aware than other people around me.

[seamus]

I was born left-handed but my mom (who was raised Catholic) forced me to change so young i dont' remember it. My dad put his foot down when my brother was also born a leftie. He said "no way you're doing that to another of my children". He is also left handed, and a very creative problem solver. His career was mostly spent as an automotive and manufacturing engineer. Me, I get all sorts of great ideas but it is very hard to carry any of them out.

EDIT: sorry, this thread is so old i didn't check to see I had already responded a couple of times in the distant past.

I'm RH- and left handed too. 2 out of 5 kids in my family are left handed.

I'm RH- and left handed too. 2 out of 5 kids in my family are left handed.

So 40% leftie in your family as opposed to the 10% societal norm.
It would be fascinating to have more statistics on occurrence of left-handed/RH negs.

Maybe you would post that you are left-handed on the RH- thread? Some of the stuff being passed around about RH negs, that they are reptilian hybrids, etc, seems ridiculoso to me. However I do think characteristics of RH negs are well worth cataloging, because so little is known. There does seem to be some hybridization since RH negs cannot accept RH positive blood transfusion, also have trouble breeding with RH positive.

I thought it was BS aswell until I spoke to a craniosacral therapist, who also works with energy and divination. She told me by blood was RH-, and I had it confirmed with blood sample work. She also said I have the genetic splicing which you speak of.

I'm another lefthander and it runs in my family. They tried to stop me in school but had to admit defeat.

Hi everyone,

I'm right-handed for most things, but at the behest of my college lecturer acquired the ability to file, saw and use other engineering tools with my left hand.

It's quite handy (no pun intended), especially when using a screwdriver in a left corner...

The engineering lecturer was left-handed and told us something that may be a bombshell to some of you here (having read the whole thread):

It's true that the left side of the brain is devoted to mathematics, language, spatial awareness and motor control (using your limbs), but it doesn't change whether you're left or right handed.
(He was told this by a specialist that his son had to visit).

The left brain therefore controls the right and left hand, whichever 'handed' you are.
Since there's a 'crossover' (between the brain and the hand), for right-handed people and a 'direct route' for left-handed, it follows that left-handed people are just 'better'. (His assertion ~ tongue in cheek, of course).

He is a fantastic engineer, who makes things that look like they 'grew there' (one of his favourite phrases). He gets frustrated using some machine tools though: A lathe, for example, has the 'business end' on the left and all the work is done on the right.

It's intriguing how many inventors and engineers are 'lefties'.

But, before you lefties get comfortable, I hope to wipe the smirk of your faces with this little nugget:
This genial old codger is one of your 'club'!!

All the best!:D

Ok, so how many lefties do we have here? A roll call to all the lefties:
There's me,
seamus,
tru3,
xdnx,
...


Btw, I think left sided sports people are better at sport:D

I'm a leftie, but not great at sports, also i'm very much left brain oriented :confused:

[amethyst]

I'm a lefty and was dyslexic till age 6 ( I used to write upside down and backwards until it somehow corrected itself) I've read (?) that more lefties tend to be dyslexic in their early years for some reason.

Was never forced to write like a 'righty" though.

[tinyint]

Very interesting especially what you have written in regards to the left handed people being associated with luciferic conciousness and the intuitive vs the analytical.
I am ambi-dextrous (sp?) although I have been brought up to write with my right hand, I still eat left handed, so would this mean that both sides of my brain are equally being used?
I am dual in the fact that I am both intuitive and analytic.
I am artistic and creative, but also really good at mathematics and problem solving. Could this possibly be because I am ambidextrous and have sort of exercised both sides of my brain throughout my life?
(I can also use my feet to pick things up and open car doors, but that is a whole other story, which part of the brain though would I be using to do this? The left? the right? or both?)
I have not or don't really remember reading in David's book about the left hand so will be watching this thread now to see what else gets posted here, once again very interesting thanks for posting :)

The very same questions I ask myself.
Some things I do with the right, some other with the left.
However I am left footed btw :p

[light seeker]

Whenever I meet another left hander I do feel an affinity with them on our shared handedness, I don't think right handers ever get to say "Hey you're right handed too cool"! :D

Ha ha, same here!

Born a leftie, mum's one too though dad and bro are both righties.
