A pause for Southpaws | Left handed | Too Much Brudders blog (toomuchbrudders.com)

History hates a southpaw! It's amazing to read up on the many ways world culture's bias has been against left handed folks.

#LeftHandersDay Both of my parents were right-handed. Three of the four kids were left-handed, myself included. 🤷‍♀️ Being left-handed and a Catholic-school student was a true challenge in the ‘60s: toomuchbrudders.com/2020/08/13/a...

#LeftHandersDay #Familyhistory I can confirm that in the 1910’s in Kent England my aunt was forced to use her right hand. Her left hand was tied behind her back & if she was caught using it when not tied to write she ended up with rapped knuckles She became permanently right handed

Yes. It wasn't good to be left-handed.
