Apparently, left handers used to be twins, but one of the twins vanished so early in the pregnancy, it was never detected. How anyone could find this out, I have no idea, but I heard it somewhere from years ago! Dunno if it is true though

Sorry but I'm sure I read that lefthanded people die on average 5 years younger than right handers. And they are more likely to become political dictators than us lot. On the plus side, when fencing, novice right handers are at a disadvantage when fencing a left hander because all the basic defence moves they have learnt have been practised on RHers and so often they find it harder.

davoomac had a great answer! One old saying is that since right handed people favor using the left side of the brain and lefties use the right side of the brain, lefties are the only ones in their right minds. Corny I know.

I know about the left handed thing ( disapperaring twin syndrome) because of a dvd that I watched called Multiples in the Womb by National Geographic.. It is great. This is a must see.. I own it but you can get it at a library in the educational dvds.Amber Hansen

they use their left hand

I have been looking this up for a night now and I've found more and more that left handed people were at one point in time twins, this is called disappearing twin syndrome and it is the reason many think that left handed people are more likely to become lonely because they don't have that twin anymore which I completely understand because i love everyone and anyone and I'm often a very friendly person but I'm always lonely, there's a very select few of people (two to be exact) my mother and my friend that I don't feel lonely but I feel like there is a certain piece of me that I have back and I dread leaving their side when I'm with them because I know that loneliness will continue once their gone. So I very much can understand how you feel and what its all about.
