I suspect you&#x27;re simply right handed or were lucky enough to be in some kind of safe environment for lefties. For me, a left-hander, while there was no superstitious negativity, there were dozens of harsh, practical negative interactions.<p>One of my first memories of school was being sat at a round table. Every time I&#x27;d try to color, cut, paste, whatever, I&#x27;d bump elbows with the kid next to me. He&#x27;d get mad. I got in trouble. So I started sitting on the floor and doing my work on the chair. So I got in trouble. I&#x27;d smear everything I wrote, mangle my fingers in those fricking scissors, and learning that &quot;Sinister&quot; literally means &quot;left-handed&quot; was really grand.<p>I despise being left-handed.
