International Left-Handed Day

International Left-Handed Day

What do Julius Caesar, Jimi Hendrix, Bill Gates, Albert Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci, Lord Robert Baden-Powell and Ernö Rubik invent the Rubik's cube? They are all left-handed ...

An international day is dedicated to them, and it is August 13 (lucky day?) Dedicated to them.

They "only" represent "only" about 12% of the population, but left-handers have always been the subject of many received ideas.

Long regarded as abnormal, left-handed schoolchildren were encouraged to use their right hand to write and draw.

Today, mentalities have evolved and being left-handed is even sometimes considered an advantage in certain areas, such as sport.

The difference between right-handed and left-handed individuals is found in the brain or, in technical terms, laterality, that is, preferring one double member to the other, left hand to right hand by example.
