Random Rambling 5- Left or Right?

~ The Age-Long question: which is better, left-handed or right-handed? ~

Apparently, I am not the only one who is curious about this. Is there truly one that is better than the other? Or is it just an annoying question to bother the normal folk around us? In my opinion, niether one is truly more important, more special or better than the other. Some people theorize that whatever hand you write with, that is the side of your brain you use the most. Right-handed people use more creative thoughts than scientific or mathematical. And vice versa for left-handed people. I, honestly, don't believe that at all. What are your thoughts on this subject? Please leave your answer in your comment.

In most cases, a left-handed person is right-brained and a right-handed person is left-brained.This is not always the case, though.


What does it mean to be right-brained?

Right-brained people are usually very good problem solvers and much more creative. Many times these people are also kinesthetic. This means that they learn better with hands on tools. Labs or other physical projects help these students to learn better. Kinesthetic learners can also be very gifted in physical arts like dance, music, or singing.


What does it mean to be left-brained?


This means that the left side of your brain is dominant. Many times a left-brained person is right-handed. The schools primarily teach in a manner that fascinates left-brained learning. These individuals are usually better at science and math.

I am not sure how true this is because I myself am right handed and I am a professional artist and graphic designer.
