Disadvantages of being Left handed

Disadvantages

With the advantages lot many disadvantages are prevailing in the society in the left handed context

• When a lefty writes with a pen or a pencil, his hand trails over the words he has previously written. Depending on the pen or pencil in question, this can lead to smudges all over the paper and the left hand. Erasable ink is notorious among lefties for this reason.
• Many Lefties, when learning to use scissors for the first time, pick up a pair of right handed scissors, place them in your left hand and start cutting. Using the wrong scissors can cause RSI and carpal tunnel syndrome.
• In a card game, when a lefty fans out his cards left-handed style, the numbers and suits cannot be seen. Lefties have to either read the cards upside-down, fan them out the opposite way.
• Many schools use desks with a chair attached. The desktop is shaped so that you get in on the left side and you can rest your right arm while writing. A lefty's left arm has to stick out off the edge of the desk. Left-handed desks, built the opposite way, can be very hard to find.
