If you're left-handed, your personality traits may include resiliency & independence. Here are a few fascinating facts about left-handed people, lefties, or Southpaws.

The personality traits of lefties are often confused with certain myths about left-handed people. For instance, people once believed that lefties or Southpaws were more likely to be dyslexic, schizophrenic, and stutterers. Some doctors believed that left-handed people are more likely to struggle with breast cancer, allergies, and asthma.

Those myths about left-handed people were debunked by Dr Michael Peters of the University of Guelph in 2006. However, some personality traits of left-handed people seem to hold true.

First, Some Left-Handed Statistics

About 10% of the world’s population is left-handed. There is a genetic component that determines right versus left-hand dominance, and it’s called the LRRTM1 gene. People with this gene are more likely to be lefties.

The speech centers of right-handers and most left-handers are in the left brain. The left brain focuses on syntax and order, while the right brain monitors context and emotions.

Some of us are “mixed-handed” people, which means both hands are used equally.

Psychological Characteristics of Left-handed People

  • Leadership. About 66% of American presidents in the last 30 years were left-handed men. Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush, Ronald Reagan, and Gerald Fold were all left-handed presidents. Barack Obama and John McCain are both left-handed.
  • Quick thinkers. Studies have shown that lefties are “exceptional.” Australian research shows that left-handed people think more quickly when playing computer games or sports. Left-handed people also tend to earn more money.
  • Sexuality. Research from Canada reveals this interesting quality of left-handed people: they’re more likely to be homosexual.

Mixed-handed people are more likely to alter their beliefs as they get new information, making them better able to see both sides of the story.

Personality Traits of Lefties

  • Independence: Some experts believe left-handed people are more independent because they’ve had to get along in a world that’s not made for them. Dr Peters says that lefties are “slightly more resistant to social pressures, to have more of an independent streak.”
  • Adaptability: Canadian research shows that left-handed people are more adaptable than right-handed people. That is, a lefty can use her right hand to do tasks much easier than a righty can use his hand. Left-handed people seem to be able to switch over more easily.

Generally, Southpaws are thought to be more flexible, highly intelligent, and more resilient than right-handed people.

Im left handed and a homosexual. Does that make me special?

Laurie Pawlik-Kienlen :
If your son or daughter is left-handed, you shouldn't try to change him or her! It's a natural inclination, and should be left alone. Pun intended :-)

i've always had a suspcion tha my brother is a homosexual and he is left handed that statistic makes sense to me

I write with my right hand. For most of my life. Then one day my dad tells me when I started to learnt to write I held the pen in my left hand but he would put it on the right. Which is really screwed up. I don't mind using any hand but the ironic thing is that he's ambidextrous.
Plus not all lefties are homosexuals

So I'm still wondering how much would that affect a person's personality- what is natural or what is conditioned.

Hey, is it OK if me and my group use your article for our research? We're doing a research on personalities of left-handers.(It's for school) Your article is really helpful, and I would be glad if you can consent.

I am a lefty, my mom is a lefty, her mom (my grandma) is a lefty and my dad was a lefty until his school made him use his right hand. Making a child change what comes natural is cruel. Due to my father's school changing his dominant hand, his writing is terrible and illegible. I strongly recommend you let your children progress naturally.

I completely agree with Ms. Pawlik-Kienlen's article. I have migraines on a weekly basis and so does my mother...we are also very independent as well. I suffer from asthma and allergies. My mother was dyslexic as a child and I sometimes find myself writing words backwards or reversing numbers.

I am not a homosexual and most all of the left handed people I know are not either. I don't believe this is a very accurate statistic.

5 out of the 18 people that I work with are left handed. It used to be split evenly down the middle until our company began to grow. It seems as if left handedness is becoming more common these days!

GO LEFTY'S!

P.S. The only drag about being left handed was all of the desks in school are made for right handed people :(

When I was young, my mom tried to make me write with my right hand as well, and it just doesn't work that well. You can do it, but there's honestly nothing wrong with working with your left hand and I like that I have a little quirk about me.

P.S. I still write with my left hand, but I can throw, open doors, catch, etc. with my right.

If any parent is thinking of changing their childs handedness - don't!!!

I discovered a few years ago that I was conditioned to write with my right hand as a child. Despite my right side being the dominant one for over 25 years, I've still managed to hold true to many of the lefty traits described above, however I'm not homosexual and don't have the medical issues.

The problem the conditioning may have caused for me, is that I've never been able to trust my own thinking - I feel it may be due to me being told as a child, that what come naturally to me (left handedness) was actully wrong! Without understanding why, I've always needed approval from others to ensure what I was doing what actually the right thing - in terms of school work and personal decisions.

Take it from me, if you don't want to mess your child's future up - leave them as they are when it comes to handedness! Some of my most intelligent friends are left handed, and I bet I'd have had a happier mindset if I had been left to be a lefty. Plus your child will only blame you for their struggles later in life when they discover you caused them to be anything other than who they truely were meant to be.

Did you ever notice how that almost universal comment of left handers is one of two things. Usually they were "made" to write right handed. Just like some children were "made" to practice the piano or whatever. If a child is "made" to do anything, it most often does not effectively work and resistance sets in that often takes the form of doing what they perceive to be the opposite. "Writing right handed is not GENETIC. I doubt seriously that genes even know what "writing is". We write right handed because it is much easier, given that most flowing writing [unlike chinese block characters and greek symbols] is arbitrarily done left to right on a page. Has anyone who grew up in a normal effective way, ever changed as a adult from right hand righting to left handed? Right handed people could write with their left hand. It just takes practice, either way. To believe that left handed people are either more intelligent or "homosexual" is has not basis in reality that I have heard. No one is "universally intelligent". Intelligence is simply a standard of those that choose to cater to the testing and grading system of our higher educational institutions which is over whelminly just a matter of memorizing and giving back to the teacher what they expect. Do that and you are smart. Tell them something else and you are dumb. In fact many who would call themselves "intelligent" are incredably inadept at many things. Does that make them dumb? Homosexuality is simply a personal declaration. Let's assume one might become attracted sexually to a particular person of the same sex, even tho obviously from a sexual point of view not how humans were made to have children. No one, however, has ever given a reason why one would make an advance decision to arbitrarily exclude having a sexual relationship with anyone of the other sex, that we were obviously designed to do.

I'm left handed and there is nothing wrong with it. People need to stop changing their kids natural ablilities. if you think being left handed is the "sign of the Devil" then you are dead wrong. It's very frustrating for me to write legibly with a pen or marker and people would keep staring at me if i say i'm left handed. it's not a disease! and i wish everyone would stop trying to descriminate against left handers.

I am left-handed and I'm also an Aquarian. I guess that makes me extra independent, since independence is also supposed to be a personality trait of Aquarius. In all actuality, I am very independent. I happen to be homosexual too, but I have known many heterosexual southpaws. I can't understand how sexuality can be based on being left-handed, or right-handed.

As Ive studied left handedness , since it was named left handedness,we lefties have been given a bad name (sinister ,evil devil servers, clumsey awkward...just to name a few,a new one has entered the arena...homosexual.I think this is all because there are only 10% of us out there to defend ourselves.

i m also lefty but i am not homosexual. i didn't find any differences between right handed and left handed. both are equal and most thing practice.

Guest :
I am left handed and thank God my parents didn't try to teach me to write with my right hand because my hand writing is pretty nice. I would leave her alone. You may just make things hard for her.

That's just a little bit predjudic is it not? To state that homosexuality is classed as a bad name?

I'm left handed and I've took on many leadership roles, I do adapt very well and I also feel a lot of emotions.

I'm a Leftie!!! :D

and to the person below this comment: DO NOT LET YOUR HUSBAND FORCE YOUR DAUGHTER INTO BEING RIGHT-HANDED! he might cause her to have a learning delay because she'll have to concentrate more on switching her dominent hand. LET HER BE HERSELF!

I'm Left-handed as well. And am not a homosexual, but I am a Prefect holding a post of Head of Committee and other activities that i am in charge of...So i guess the part about being a leader is true. And am academically top in class, is that part of being a left-hander? I do not know as i don't study for test. I just memorized what the teacher has said.And i have a friend who was forced to write with her right hand when young and is very confused in most of the things she does and always ponder, but mostly she acts dumb or maybe is...Could this be a result to switching hand?

I am a leftie and fit almost all the above, including the "gay" relativity issue. I saw so many here write that they are lefties but NOT GAY (in caps) and so I want to say that although the article says that many lefties are gay, it does not say the majority, so please do not get all in a snit about others assuming that if you are a leftie, then you must be gay. I do believe that the anount of gay people who are lefties is higher than the percentage of str8 people, but again, not the majority. If lefties are 10% of the population and homosexuals make up 10% of the population, then it would seem that even if gay people are lefties, then about 10% - 20% of lefties would be gay, and vise versa. No person fits all the above criteria. I fit most. Am resilient, a leader when given the chance, emotional, thoughtful (in that I give thought to things before doing them), etc. I am, also, however, more sensitive, not always a good thing and although I may recover quickly from the emotional battering ram, I also feel that ram so much more than many! As far as EVER teaching one's kid to do or be something that it is not natural, DO NOT DO IT! I have a cousin whose dad made her right with her right hand and man is she wacked! She learned other ways to emote and they are annoying and loud. I have many friends who went to Catholic School and were made, even in the 70's, to have their left hand tied behind their backs so they write and do all things with the right hand, and they all say they have many problems that most do not, and one sees these problems. Lefties have had to be stronger, resilient because, as it says, we were made to be more flexible in delaing with things, as small as they may sound, from an early age, like; writing, sitting at desks made for righties, scissors made for righties, knives curved for righties, etc. A world for righties. This also may explain the gay issue as gay people have had to deal with a lot of crap and most stick with it, as we had to stick with being leftie. I don't know, but there must be a connection, there. Again, though, never change what is coming naturally to you, ar your kids, as the damage will appear eventually and manifest itself in ways that you might not even be able to imagine! Peace!

To the reader who wonders if his friend is confused because she was forced to be left-handed: I've answered your question in my Psychology Blog.

At the same time, I discussed whether parents should force their children to stop being left-handed.

Just click on my name in blue at the top of this page, then click on "Read Laurie Pawlik-Kienlen's blog" on the right side. Scroll down to "Should I Stop My Child From Being Left-Handed?"

I hope to see you there!

A really interesting article. I'm left handed. My early schooling was in Northern Ireland. I remember my mum teling me that she had to go into my infant school because they were trying to make me write with my right hand (I'm 45). She was opposed to this. What is interesting though, is that although I am left handed, I play golf and hold a cricket bat right handed. However when I bowl a ball or hold a single sporting implement, I hold it left handed. Furthermore, when I text on my phone, I do it right handed. I hold a telephone in my right hand. Do I buck the trend or are others like me? What I would like is some more information from Laurie. Does the dominant eye make a difference. I always close my left eye and look with my right if I have to. Is this significant? I'm not gay but I do have a slight speech impediment - this, I have read, is more frequent in left handed boys.
Jul 21, 2009 3:26 PM
Laurie Pawlik-Kienlen :
Interesting -- it almost sounds like you're ambidextrous! But, I'm afraid I know nothing about why one side dominates certain things, but not others. I'm not sure if that's been researched.

Sorry I can't be more helpful....but if I do come across any information about this, I'll post it here.

All best,

Im a lefty! and i love it! I always feel so special :) both of my parents are righties and as is my brother.
I found out about 3 years ago that nobody makes a left handed field hockey stick, there just arent any! But my field hockey coach (who i barely tolerate) says that you actualy play field hockey left handed. I didnt think this was right for some reason. could you help me understand this?
Jul 22, 2009 9:53 AM
Laurie Pawlik-Kienlen :
Here's what Wikipedia says about field hockey:

"Left-handed sticks are rare, but available; however they are pointless as the rules forbid their use in a game."

I'm not sure why this is so; you'd have to research the rules of field hockey to learn more!

Thanks for bringing this up -- I had no idea. Lefties are sure affected by lots of things in life, huh?

I am left handed male and I am not homosexual. I can say my parents year after year tried to buy me a baseball glove made for right handers. My stepfather even would come up to the plate and try to make me bat like a right hander person. I can also say that growing up as a child I did learn things alot faster than most kids. I am in college now and I can respond to my professor questions alot faster than the majority of the class.
Jul 29, 2009 4:25 PM
Guest :
I do not see how being homosexual has anything to do wtih being a lefty. There is just a larger population of the right-handed people in the world compared to the left-handed population. I think that making this connection is not an accurate connection, whether your homosexual or heterosexual, it's your choice, it's not part of your genetics that chooses this.
I'm not homosexual, and i don't think that some of these connections make since. Yeah, a lot of us have problems with allergies and such but I believe that there is no true connection with this and being a lefty.

Im a really quick thinker and people don't have to teach me stuff I learn it on my own and Im a very independent person I like doing things on my own and don't have to depend on no one to do it for me. And Im not gay but I feel special and unique that there is only a few of us in the world.

I am Proudly Lefty ;)!!!...and i really just love it!!!
when i was a little girl probably 4 or 5 years,my dad tried to make me write and eat with my right hand but i couldn't so i started to cry,my dad started laughing at me and he said use whatever hand that you like...
i really just dont get it!!! inno why parents prefer their kids to write and use their right hand instead of the left one...inno what is the thing that is SPECIAL with the right hand....
U should leave your kids to be whatever they wanna grow up to be...Not force them to be what You want them to be just coz you think that is better...
Personaly, Am a Medical Lab. Technologist, a Science Teacher,and Am studying Physcology sooo I totaly agree that left handed people are SMARTER and that all the Traits written above are true except for the homosexuality thing ana i didn't like that one :S
I feel special that few out there are lefty ;) i hope that one day my future kids will turned up to be lefty just like me...

i am left handed and have found that alot of qualities it describes here are very true about me. i am a quicker thinker than many of my friends and also i do tend to use my right hand quite a bit like when using a computor mouse or if my left hand gets tired i can easily switch to my right :)

btw wwwwhhhhhoooo yesterday was national left handers day go us leftys :P

im a lefty and love it, but wot i don`t love is that all if not most sports equipment is only for right handed people, iv grown up using things with my right hand which means my left hand isn`t as good with using somethings, is there a way of changing this?
Aug 26, 2009 6:17 AM
Laurie Pawlik-Kienlen :
Hi,

The only way to make your left hand stronger is to use it! So, you just have to start practicing doing stuff with your left hand, instead of your right one.

It'll take time, but one day your leftie will outperform your rightie :-)

I am also left handed!
I am not gay but i believe i have some of the characteristick shown above.
I've never been seriously sick , maybe catch a cold once or twice a year, talented in all sports except football..
Also i think i am more independant than most of the teenagers my age , in the end i love living alone without parents , not because i dont love them , but because i like having my freedom!
My writing looks disgusting :D
It could be related to being lefthanded that i seem to add more thinking to what i am doing and what others are doing .
I believe that i am lazy for studying just as a characteristic of my personality . I've always been more lucid , having hilarious ideas and in my surrounding it seems that its only me who can think of funny things - as we know having a good sence of humour means having a great intelligence!
i really dont remember when someone managed to really make me laugh with his talk..not with him being stupid! :D
Also it seems its only me between people who i know that is not lazy for doing stuff except studying - i am always for action , but right handed people i know are to lazy to do anything that they didnt plan ..
Also i noticed that i am the only one between my agers who knows how to cook , iron , fix things , only one who knows more than two languages , only one who wakes up in a second and makes all the others wake up .
Also i am the only one who can draw and paint . When i got my first (and last job for now because of college duties) in a high class clothing store i was excepted as the youngest person who aplied for the job because with my talk i made them think i was the right person and when i got the job i got some tutoring from older staff and they told me that i learned stuff in 2 days that others learn in months ..

i cant remember anything else about me that is not usual :D but i like being left handed !

- 19 y.o. from Europe - i'LL tell you in 20 years if i'm rich :D or a genius :D

I happen to be a gay lefty and match up with everything else on here, big surprise considering my personality type (myers-briggs) is an INTJ. For all those saying the bit about the gay-lefty statistic do remember that lefties are ~10% of the population and homosexuals are ~10% of the population. Even if it's more common both are small groups. It never said majority just happens to be more likely. Also to the lady asking about her daughter it mentioned above that left-handedness is a result of a genetic/biological trait, it's natural don't hinder it.

does anybody know if left handedness is lanked to a certain side of the brain being more dominant than the other?
Sep 16, 2009 3:40 PM
Laurie Pawlik-Kienlen :
Great question! Here’s what the International Children’s Education website says about left-handed people and brain dominance:

“The human brain has two cerebral hemispheres, the left and the right. The left hemisphere processes things more in parts and sequentially, and is the center for language, science, mathematics, and logic. This left side of the brain is usually dominant, and because the left side of the brain controls the right side of the body, these individuals are right-handed.

The right side of the brain synthesizes and is a source of dreams, fantasies, art, music, and feeling. In left-handed individuals the right side of the brain is dominant (and thus they are left-handed). Almost half of left-handers use their right hemisphere for language. In some left-handed people though, writing may be controlled completely and independently from the right hemisphere of the brain.”

So, lefties are dominated by the right side of the brain.

I'm left handed I never figured out how other left handed behind like twisted there whole wrist around to write i just rub my hand over what i already wrote usually ends up smudged and my hand gets as EEEWWW if i use pencil. But i don't usually have to read what i write so works for me. I don't think lefties have any real problem when it comes to reading or writing we just think to fast and end up running our selves over in the process

It's very funny reading the comments. I'm a lefty and straight.

Don't quite agree with the facts on lefties are mostly gay. Does this mean, out of the 66% of the lefties America's President, more than 50% of them are gay?

Sep 23, 2009 6:52 AM
Laurie Pawlik-Kienlen :
Hi,

No, I don’t think the lefty stats are quite that straightforward. The research on lefties above simply states that left-handed people may be more likely to be homosexual….that doesn’t mean 50% of them are! And, that’s just one study.

I m lefty,but It is true, I can learn to work by right hand easily,I can adopt fast.I think decesion power is an advantage to be lefty.When young, was writing by left hand,but forced by teacher/parents towrite by right hand,now I can write by both hand. Interesting thing is , some university offeres scholarship to lefty for education.

I'm a lefty, and I don't really find myself to be smarter than a right handed person. I am also not a fast thinker, but I must say that I am independent and creative.

I'm a lefty. I am highly intelligent and have succeeded very well in school (got a masters in Chemical Engineering). I have allergies (dustmites, urticaria and cat). I've been diagnosed to be asthmatic. I am NOT Homosexual. As a little kid, I often fall sick (auto-immune weakness). I am also very independent and sensitively emotional.
