When fencing, left-handed people have the significant advantage of being able to dramatically switch their rapier from their right hand to their left hand, mid-combat, and announce that they are not really right-handed.

Notable advantage in a lot of beginner and intermediate level sports. By the time you get beyond that everyone knows how to compensate for left handedness.

Easier for you to assault a castle with spiral staircases while using a sword.

Only left-handed people are in their right mind

A boxing coach once told me it's harder to fight lefties because they go against what you've trained for.

Yes but good luck with scissors 😭😭😭 I fucking hate that thing

You are born an outsider. This allows you to understand the world more clearly at a younger age. Not sure what advantages this may give but it's reality.

It can be beneficial for a lot of sports

We don't have to switch hands with our forks in order to pick up a knife.

I fence, and lefties have a significant advantage, just because we're used to fencing opposite-handed opponents.

Training people in surgical techniques is way easier in lefties because most have been imitating right handed people so have some degree of ambidexterity. When you tell a right handed person to do precision movements with their left hand it fucks them up for a while.

I can't think of any time I've felt lile being left-handed is an advantage.

in fencing left handed people have a slight advantage, since left handed people are used to fighting right handed people but righties aren't used to fencing lefties. other than that it's probably worse since it looks like writing left handed is more annoying

Back when automated toll booths had baskets to throw coins in, I could easily pay tolls at around 45 mph.

EZ pass eventually became a thing, probably saved me from my own young stupidity.

When I play basketball, it gives a slight advantage in the beginning when opponents don’t know I’m a lefty because they automatically assume I shoot with my right.

Also, being able to naturally drive one handed in a left-hand drive car.

I don't know, but I assume it comes with some benefits. If not, why make the pact with the devil in the first place?

You get to call yourself widdershins.

Left handed people are superior beings

My gf thinks lefties are hot. I don't understand but I got an advantage there 🤷‍♂️

See life from the side of not being the "norm".

We save money on potato peelers because the right handed people in the family use the other side of the blade and so it lasts twice as wrong.

Downside is right harders want to trade peelers with us not realizing that there are right handers in the family and so ours are dull on both sides.

You're never right 🤷

Lefthandedness increases your probability of becoming a U.S. president

Meanwhile those of us ambidextrous.............

In English we write left to right and lefties smudge their writing (or adapt their grip I guess) so, for right to left languages it's a plus.

After typing there para above, I guess they could also be better drawers if they have done more practice or use a different grip or draw instead of write if they're part of a class doing pencil and paper time.

From memory, we are statistically more likely to be geniuses. Unfortunately we are also equally as more likely to be clinically insane.

It’s a conversation starter when you see another leftie in the field.
