Left handedness and creativity?

I'm also a leftie and totally uncreative! So glad to know I'm not the only one out there. But since we are left-handed people in a right handed world (if you get my drift!) lefties are supposedly using both hemispheres of the brain more...therefore we should be more intelligent. I have dreadful hand-writing and am very clumsy....!!

I'm extremely practical and reasonably creative, but am right-handed.
Often left-handedness comes with the disadvantage of dyslexia, like DS2. They have to be extremely mentally agile to adjust to all situations. DS2 is a mechanical engineer and has to find solutions at the drop of a hat. His siblings are hopeless on the whole, are right-handed and very academic.
It takes all sorts to make a world!

I'm left handed and useless at arts and crafts

I'm left-handed. I can't draw to save my life, but I make greetings cards from scratch (ie, not kits), knit, sew, crochet, embroider, design dolls' clothes, used to write poetry but no longer have the time. I can think of at least three more skills I want to acquire, too!

I'm very creative (maybe a good copier) but definitely right handed. When quilting I'm told you're supposed to have your less dominant hand underneath the work and push the needle through with it - but I find this difficult as my LH is clumsy.
I think this is too big a generalisation. Stansgran your work is lovely.

Whole family very creative and everyone is right-handed.

I have a left handed friend who is very creative and I am an right handed artist. I have a left handed son who isn't a bit creative. Very confusing.

I have a very practical and uncreative left-handed DD, and a right-hander, who's a graphic designer. DS hedged his bets by being right-handed and left-footed (very useful when playing football).

I was born "sinister" but my father insisted the world was made for right handed people so I write with my right and I sew with my left hand. I am very organised but my sewing room is an embarrassment. I am not an artist but a copyist. I made these recently but all from patterns on the internet.

I am left handed, DS2 is also and his daughter. DH is right handed , DS1 also , but one of his daughters is ambidextrous. None of us is creative but we are all fairly well organised.

I'm lefthanded, as are DD2 and her eldest daughter. We are the 3 least creative people in our family. We are very practical. dsoninlaw is left handed and he is neither creative nor practical.

My OH is very left handed.....is analytical, organised and plans everything and is far from creative. I am very right handed.....am messy disorganised and very creative....so hey ho!

I can use either hand which can be very useful.

Yggdrasil, it was said for laughs , and I am not a do it with both hands person, I am a left handed

D is a leftie and not remotely creative. She dosen't even cook very well.
When she moved areas and went to meet the other guide leader of her new pack she told her in no uncertain terms "Donot ask me to help with crafts"

Oh no Annie, about 10% of people are naturally left handed. It is just that in a world where right-handers are majority, left-handers have to be able to use both to some extent. I don't think we are more creative, but there is definitely a preponderance of L-H in the IT industry.

Anniebach I am in total agreement with that.

Ok, forget .hitler, try this - everyone is born right handed but the brightest 10% develope the use of their left hand

Noooo, definitely not! I haven't got a creative bone in my body. Not unless it involves potatoes anyway. (Always awful at art in school until we had to do a potato print. Came second in the class for that). I didn't know about Hitler, as bad as Gary Glitter having the same birthday as me. Just thought, my sister is right handed and she is even less creative than me.

someone keeps reminding me - Hitler was left handed

We are supposed to be more intelligent and I would certainly go along with that!!!!

DH and DS are lefties - not a creative bone in their bodies- the first is a bureaucrat with sport tendencies and the latter is an accountant through and through (counts the vegetables at dinner).

I am not in the slightest bit creative.

Meeeeeee, ?I have three sisters right handers, I cannot think of one interest I share with them,
