Left Handidness

If you are left handed, are all your brain functions reversed?

peter what was/ is you profession ?

[islasmum]

Thank you all for your interesting answers - I was thinking back to my mother telling me that if I had a stroke I would probably still be able to talk! I'm left handed, and when I started school the teacher tried to persuade me to write with my right hand, but apparently started to stammer, so mother requested that they should let me write with my left hand. I do most things left handed- write, eat, but one thing I have to do right handed is use scissors,I can't use the special left hand scissors,it doesn't feel right.qty

Don't know where the qty came from at the end of my answer - bloody smart phones!

The nuns tried to persuade me too Isla, their technique involved the thin edge of a ruler.
