| BEING LEFT-HANDED | ||
BEING LEFT-HANDEDNo-one has come up with a definitive reason for WHY some people are left-handed, but about 13% of the population around the world are, and it is thought to be genetic - it definitely runs in families. Researchers have recently located a gene they believe "makes it possible to have a left-handed child " so if you have that gene, one or more of your children may be left-handed, whereas without it, you will only have right-handers - sorry! The good news is, that if you are left-handed yourself, you have that gene and will pass it on through the generations! Left-handers sometimes slip naturally into mirror-writing flowing from right to left and perfectly readable to them (or to anyone with a mirror). Famous examples of this were Leonardo da Vinci and Lewis Carroll. Origin of left-handers Stone Age implements discovered seem equally divided between left and right and studies of cave drawings have indicated a preference for the left hand. When tools became more sophisticated, a clear hand preference emerged. The right hand preference may have originated in sun worship. In the Northern hemisphere you have to face south to follow the sun and move from left to right until the suns sets in the west. This gave moving to the right and the right hand side a great significance. Another theory says that as the heart is on the left hand side, a shield would have to be in the left hand to defend it and any weapon therefore had to be held in the right, which became the dominant hand. Recent theories have included one that right-handedness is the normality and left-handedness is a deficiency which results from a traumatic birth! Left-handers have done quite badly over the years and many old superstitions still survive today. Christianity is strongly based towards the right hand. It is the right had that gives the blessing and make the sign of the cross. On one count, the Bible contains over 100 favourable reference to the right-hand and 25 unfavourable references to the left-hand .Those on the right inherit the kingdom of god while those on the let depart into everlasting fire. The devil is nearly always portrayed as left-handed and evil spirits lurk over the left shoulder (which is why you throw spilled salt over your left shoulder to ward them off). The reason of differences The way the brain works is incredibly complex, but this simplified explanation will give you some understanding of where our left-hand dominance comes from. The brain is "cross-wired" so that the left hemisphere controls the right handed side of the body and vice-versa and hand dominance is connected with brain dominance on the opposite side - which is why we say that only left-handers are in their right minds! The left hemisphere (right hand control) controls Speech, Language, Writing, Logic, Mathematics, Science. The right hemisphere (left hand control) controls Music, Art, Creativity, Perception, Emotions,Genius.. This brain dominance makes left-handers more likely than right-handers to be creative, and visual thinkers. This is supported by higher percentages of left-handers than normal in certain jobs and professions - music and the arts, media in general. Left-handers are also generally better at 3-dimensional perception and thinking, leading, for example, to more left-handed architects than normal. Left-handers are also usually pretty good at most ball sports and things involving hand-to-eye co-ordination. The view that left-handers are clumsy is not down to their natural abilities, but being forced to use right-handed tools and machinery which is completely back-to-front for them. Check how left-handed you areWe all, of course, know in which hand we hold a pen, but how far does this bias extend throughout your body? Are you left-eared? Left eyed? Here is a simple test you can apply to yourself. 1. Imagine the centre of your back is itching. Which hand do you scratch it with?
If you have always considered yourself to be right or left-handed you will probably now have discovered that your body is less than total in its devotion to its favoured side. If you are right-handed the chances are that you were not able to be 'right' 10 times. Famous Left-HandersJulius Caesar Napol?on Bonaparte Michelangelo Raphael Leonardo da Vinci Fidel Castro, Cuban leader Henry Ford, automobile manufacturer David Rockefeller, banker Lewis Carroll Mark Twain Paul McCartney Charlie Chaplin Greta Garbo Nicole Kidman Marilyn Monroe UNKNOWN WORDS
