However, left-handedness does not rise to the level of being a disability. The Social Security Administration has a list of all conditions which qualify as disabilities. Left-handed people may have to adapt a little bit, but they are certainly not prevented from working because of their condition.

Other studies have found lefties seem to have the upper hand when it comes to smarts. A 2007 study in the Journal of the Indian Academy of Applied Psychology found that, out of 150 subjects, left-handed participants were significantly more likely to perform better on an intelligence test than right-handed people.

Handedness. There is a persistent popular belief that Einstein was left-handed, but there is no evidence that he was, and the belief has been called a myth. Einstein wrote with his right hand, and authoritative sources state flatly that he was right-handed.

8 Advantages Only Left-Handed People Have

• They are more likely to pass a driving test.
• They can make more money.
• They are faster typists.
• They have better problem-solving skills.
• They are better at some sports.
• They spend less time standing in lines.
• They are more likely to excel in creative and visual arts.
• They are better at multitasking.

There’s Creativity on the Left The lengthy list of artistic lefties, and strong connection lefties have to the right side of the brain — which is linked to creativity — has reinforced the idea that lefties are more creative. It’s a skill that can certainly help with creative thinking.

The only guns you need to be concerned with shooting lefty is a right-handed bullpup like a Tavor. Those put the ejection port under your cheek. Even shooting a right-handed bolt action left-handed is only inconvenient, not unsafe. Shooting a Glock left-handed isn’t an issue either.

Definitely YES And Why; I’m left handed with well over 20,000 rounds through the AR15 and M16, (probably actually much more, but I’m being conservative) and most definitely YES YES YES, if you are left handed, you need a left handed top for your AR15 rifle.

For the most part, weapon controls are on the left-hand side of the gun and operated by the shooter’s thumb. When a left-handed shooter uses a right-handed firearm, their thumb falls on the right-hand side of the gun, where the controls aren’t.

For most people, their dominant eye is on the same side as their dominant hand. However, exceptions exist. For example, archers who are right-handed and left-eye dominant have two options: They could shoot a left-handed bow, or they could wear an eye patch over their left eye, which allows the right eye to aim the bow.

That means they are dominant with one hand, but their dominant eye is on the other side of the body. An example of being cross-dominant would be a shooter who is right-handed but aims with his or her left eye. Scientists believe that 85-90 percent of the world’s population is right-handed.

You can actively change eye dominance by suppressing the dominant eye such as using an eye patch, or, in more extreme cases, opt for laser eye surgery. Aiming in archery is a fine motor skill. Now unlucky archers who prefer to shoot right-handed and who are left-eye dominant (or vice versa) do not have this option.

The idea behind this practice is to lower the activity of the half of the brain that isn’t technically being used, freeing it from distractions. Over the years, well-practiced shooters have determined that closing one eye helps you line up your target more easily.

With both eyes open, center this triangular opening on a distant object — such as a wall clock or door knob. Close your left eye. If the object stays centered, your right eye (the one that’s open) is your dominant eye. If the object is no longer framed by your hands, your left eye is your dominant eye.
