Today, my slightly batshit insane grandma called me disgusting and unladylike. Why? For writing with my left hand. FML

Lefty's unite!!!! It used to be said that a left handed person has a mental disorder.

I swear I commented on this one about left handed people, knights, and castle design but the comment isnt here, maybe im going crazy just like MY grandmother

In kindergarten (2005), my teacher sent me to the principal's office for using my left hand in her class. She said it was "ungodly" and was "proof that witch trials should still be held." No, no I do not live in Salem. I live in Texas. I kept using my left hand just to piss her off.

When your grandma was young schools enforced that all girls HAVE to write with their right hand, My grandma was a leftie but became ambedextruous because her school forced her to learn how to write with her right hand

You do know why she would say that, right?

She probably knew how powerful his right hand was ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). And wanted him to use that instead ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).

My parents get pissed at me whenever I eat with my left hand.

Back in the day teachers would slap kids who used their left hand

I’m very confused by that one. My mom and a number of other relatives, co-workers as well, and while I know there has been a history of bias against the southpaws I’ve never heard of anyone called unladylike for it. 🤔
