    Notable advantage in a lot of beginner and intermediate level sports. By the time you get beyond that everyone knows how to compensate for left handedness.

    Easier for you to assault a castle with spiral staircases while using a sword.

      Seems that doesn’t work quite as well in tennis, where pretty much all the time 15 to 25% of the top 100 ranked players are left handed.

      I’m told that Ferniehurst Castle on the border between Scotland and England was built with the stairs spiralling in the opposite direction because so many of the clan that built it were left-handed.
