... and likely your left one too!  Like the Thread Title here, I'm wondering: who else is a left-handed avatar? Torley Jr. is (unlike her father), but I am frustrated at times because most carryable items seem to attach to my right hand (with corresponding pose which can't just be flipped, eeek!) and I can't override this behavior which is unaccomodating for me. Although recent tests pleasingly show that when I try to move stuff around with my selector dots in Edit mode, my left hand does the action. =^_^= I'm not one to brazenly call out "DISCRIMINATION!" but I would like to see more cool stuff inworld that caters to unity in diversity and that is designed for us southpaws, nopaws, or amorphous lifeforms too. Thank you graciously for your attention to this mind-over-matter.  |

that is the price to pay for being abnormal. left handed people die younger too. stop hacking your av and you'll have less problems with your purse.

I'm a lefty in UT, a righty with shades of ambidexterity in RL and well... is there an option in SL? I mean, my building particles are in my left hand, but I didn't know there were differences in SL... lol...
I mouse right handed, unless I'm using a joystick in right, in which case I mouse left. I drink with my left hand (and a glass or cup or whatever), and for most things, like phones, it depends where it was in relation to me when I started, lol.

I am a lefty in RL also, but as we were taught in school, the left side of the brain controls the right side of the body. The right side of the brain controls the left side of the body. Therefore lefthanded people are the only ones in the right state of mind

Not only are we in our right minds... uh... I mean use our right side of the brain to control our left side of the body.... but those of us messy left handed writers are notoriously brilliant. Not that I've seen the study, but far be it for me to disagree |

SL Lefty - and an RL one sort of. Though now I'm more ambi-dextrous thanks to the nuns in Catholic school and their handy, dandy rulers.

ALL avatars are left-handed! Unless all you want to do is fire a weapon - that goes on the right hand. Maybe it's some sort of political statement. Lefties are more creative and righties are just destructive. |

Ever notice that the SL logo is a left hand (assuming we are looking at someone showing their hand as opposed to an impression or tracing in which case its a right hand)? Dunno if it means anything. -Ghoti

I can't really use my right hand anymore, so although I'm right-handed I use my left hand for everything now.

Lefties are better at adapting to new things...
02-14-2005 10:28
and learn faster. Since we constantly have to adapt out natural inclanation in order to use all things right handed. Can openers, automobiles, and scissors are just a few examples of things we must endure on a daily basis! On the down side, more lefties are dyslexic in porportion to the right handed community. Which leads me to conclued that Shadow is right, lefties are but the person caught on the other side of the mirror! lol |

Hmmm so if Leftys are caught on the opposite side of the mirror I guess that means people like me are multi dimensional as being Ambi we do it both ways..hehe...and then some.... Shadow
