Left is Love, Left is Life: A Celebration of Left-Hander’s Day

Related Topics: Handedness, Left-wing politics

Today is a very important day for me and about 10 percent of the world: it’s International Left Handers Day.

I have an odd sense of pride being left-handed. Being a part of such a small minority makes you feel that way. And since handedness is genetic that adds to feeling like you’re special. You don’t choose which hand is your dominant hand, you’re born with it. You either are left-handed or you’re not.

I identify as left-handed on my Twitter bio. I’m in two different GroupMe’s that’s all featuring other lefties or honorary lefties.
