An awesome fact.

The term 'sinistrality' used to refer to left-handed people indicates demonic traits. This is the most ridiculous myth in the world. In fact, the word 'sinistrality' is derived from the Latin word 'sinestra' which means 'left-handedness'. In the ancient Mesopotamian language, the term 'sinestra' was used to denote 'power'.

And not only situations like this, but little everyday things like sports equipment, procedures, objects, and tools shaped for right-handed use. Some just make using them uncomfortable, or awkward, but power-tools especially, shaped only for a rightie, can be quite dangerous to use.

Such fun. :P
Society has long been geared towards reinforcing and rewarding those who have been born right-handed, or 'normal' as we are taught to think of it. Lefties tend to feel 'abnormal' or 'inferior' in so many little ways.
For example, as this delightful exercise shows.

The negative connotations of being a leftie can be subtle, but they are there once you've realised.
