The left-hander. So who are we?
Hi!
Today I want to discuss an interesting topic. The left-hander. Who are these people, including me!
From early childhood I have used the left hand in everything. My grandmother tried to retrain me, but all in vain. In their time it was considered not normal, as a deviation, and many children were retrained, but to me this number is not passed, thanks to my mom! She insisted and tried to convince everyone that this is normal, and I'm gifted man. Since childhood, I constantly asked God, how do you write with your left hand, it's uncomfortable and similar issues. To their questions I answered, but how do you write with the right hand, it is inconvenient)) After reading this article, I began to wonder if left-handed, in fact, something but gifted!
Let's look at who are the lefties and what they can do!
Left-handed — people, preferably using the left hand instead of the right. The people who are left-handed, mostly using left hand more often than right. The predominantly left-handed will use the left hand for personal needs, cooking and similar cases. The hand used for writing, is not an accurate indicator of left (right) of hands. So how many lefties write with the right hand, using left hand for most other tasks, or Vice versa.
In fact, lefties and righties differ from each other not only what they write and hold a spoon. Lefthanded much stronger expressed specifically - shaped quality. They are more impressionable, excitable, prone to emotional outbursts and mood swings. Therefore, among people of art (actors, composers, poets and artists) is very much left-handed. But science, as a rule, left-handers are difficult.
In General, between the hemispheres of the brain there is a certain specialization, over 90 percent of the features is controlled cross how to be the opposite. So lefties should be different in some features. To write "Alice in Wonderland" and come up with the smile of the Cheshire cat, which remained when he was gone, could only Lefty Lewis Carroll. This is not every comes to mind.
In the process of brain development in humans is the separation of functions between the left and right hemispheres. The right hemisphere of the brain is responsible for specifically - shaped activities (recognition of objects by smell, color and visual perception). And the left hemisphere is responsible for speech function, reading, writing, and mathematical, logical and analytical thinking. That is why the left hemisphere is called the dominant or predominant.
In the implementation of the movements of the body involves both hemispheres of the brain. The left hemisphere controls the right arm and leg. And the right respectively the left arm and leg.
Therefore, the right-handed dominant left hemisphere, and is dominant right hand. But sometimes in the process of brain development there are some changes and the dominant role of the right hemisphere. In this case, the primary is left hand.
In humans, many of the paired organs. Eyes, ears, kidneys, lungs, ovaries, testes symmetrical, and perform some functions. Having lost one on, people will be able to do with the help of a double. In this sense, the cerebral hemispheres are the exception. They will never replace each other.
According to Dr. biological Sciences and engineering Vigen of Geodakyan, in most people the left hemisphere is used for semantic perception and reproduction of speech, writing, numeracy, logical, analytical, abstract thinking, self-awareness, positive emotions. It consistently processes information. Deactivation of the left hemisphere leads to depression. The right hemisphere is designed for spatio-visual functions, intuition, music, situational thinking, negative emotions. Information it perceives simultaneously. Off this hemisphere leads to euphoria. The literature describes a study of the perception of emotional stimuli the left and right hemisphere. Interestingly, the same film was perceived in different ways. The left hemisphere caught a nasty and horrible, and the right enjoyable and funny. Not only images, but even the words with emotional overtones are not perceived equally.
What words! The group of subjects, the scientists offered to give emotional evaluation of odors and to tell about the associations with color, gesture, expression, mood. Right-handers showed themselves as optimistic compared with the left, and the most prone to pessimism were ambidekstr.
A lot of left-handers among athletes. As you know, in such sports as Boxing, fencing, tennis, lefties show their specific tactics and create a lot of problems for opponents.
There is a connection of left-handedness with temperament. For example, lefties are more emotional, they do not always manage to keep themselves in check. Many, especially men, decreased level of self-control. Left-handed make a half-turn, easily gets angry. Interestingly, today, the concept of left-handedness is treated somewhat broader than before. In addition to the hand, play the role of other organs: eye, ear, leg. Often we do not suspect about their "leftism". To define hidden signs experts use different samples and tests, for example, interlocking fingers, so-called pose of Napoleon, cheers. Making the usual traffic that does not require mental effort, a person chooses a convenient option. Watch for them. If you listen to the sounds behind the wall to the right ear, set the clock with the right hand, hold the receiver on the right (except for situations when you need something to record), even waltzing in the right direction – you are clean-handed. In General, solid asymmetry!
By the way, there is a curious test called "synthesized pictures". Namely: a portrait is created from only the right or left halves of the face. The result is usually stunning. The right and left faces of one and the same person it is difficult to find too many similarities between them. On the thin supervision of a Vigen of Geodakian "left" face more like his mother and sisters, and "right" – his father and brothers.
Every fifth outstanding person is left – handed. If you offer the left-handed and right-handed one and the same task, then the first will almost always find multiple solutions.
Lefties have a connection between the hemispheres of the brain are not as hard as the "right" of the majority. Therefore, the information in the cortex may be processed more slowly, but it is not a disease, but a feature. A strong right-handed other problems: rigid connections between the hemispheres as would leave little chance for creative freedom, diversity.
Among left-handers a lot of slowpoke, although the results of these second thoughts are often original, if not more. The literature often mentions a certain bluntness that seems to be differed Einstein in high school. The future father of the theory of relativity was considered "moderately capable", as it is very slowly assimilated and digested the new information. He did not Shine even in arithmetic.
Found plenty of examples where people with the makings of extraordinary abilities (left-handed) while retraining him to use my right hand lost all of these abilities, quenching their "divine spark". There are studies that prove that if you go back to nature and start writing and everything to do with the left hand, all diseases are acquired, and the person becomes capable of artistic development.
Even mental illness lefthanded sometimes occur differently. For example, Dr. Vvedensky was patient with schizophrenia, who for years did not get out of hospitals because medicine it almost didn't work. Periods of depression followed by manic States. But the man didn't have any emotional defect, in remission he produced the best impression.
Among patients suffering from various disorders of sexual desire, there is a high enough percentage of latent left-handedness, – says Georgiy Vvedensky. – This was noted by Lombroso in his theory.Serial criminals sometimes observed individual characteristics. I don't know about Chikatilo, its left-handedness is not explored, but, for example, Ryakhovsky from the heading that killed twenty-one person was left-handed. A pedophile Golovkin, who to death was abusing boys in his garage was closer to Ambidextrous, that is almost equally owned by both hands. This serial rapist-killer was unique. Special tests showed that his left hemisphere is very poorly perceived speech.
Many lefties also have psychic abilities, often associated with them the gift of anticipation. However, we know this is always in retrospect.

Your Rainbow Elephant!)
i am left handed. cheers! here's a funny thing. i used to work with someone who was pseudo-left handed. he was born Situs inversus. which means that all of his asymmetrical structures are mirror reversed. he was unaware of this until getting appendicitis, on the wrong side. this occurs in about 1 in 10,000 people.
so, he is left handed, but his brain and therefore his handedness, is reversed.
great post.
