REASONS LEFTIES ARE BETTER THAN RIGHTIES
Added on: 9th Feb 2016
MAKE MORE MONEY
For men who have gone to college, lefties earn 13% more than righties.
IT'S NOT ALL ROSY
Oddly, for women who have gone to college, lefties earn 5% less
than righties (but as you can see there are still plenty of other
left-handed advantages).
BETTER DRIVERS
Lefties tend to pass their driving tests (on the first time) more
than righties, at a rate of 57% to 47%.
BETTER ASTRONAUTS
Well, this one might be a bit disputed as to why, but it is true
that 25% of the Apollo astronauts were lefties.
FASTER THINKERS
In lefties, the left and right sides of the brain communicate more
quickly – another point for left-handed people being more intelligent!
MORE VISUAL
Left-handed people lean more towards visual rather than written fields.
They land up more in areas like photography and painting than
in law or writing.
FASTER TYPISTS
On a standard QWERTY keyboard, left-handed people can type
significantly quicker – only about 450 words can be typed with
only the right hand in comparison to about 3,400 words
with only the left.
AQUATIC ABILITY
Another feature whose cause isn’t exactly known, left-handed
people better acclimate to being underwater.
