LAS VENTAJAS DE SER ZURDO

25/02/2015

According to several studies, the fact of being a minority leads some to have a more global view of things.
The more than five hundred million lefties out there in the world see the new image knowingly transmitting universal and Barack Obama left or Rafael Nadal.

Are they better, more skillful, more gifted for politics or sport which handled more deftly left hand, ie 10% of the world population?
Function in a world designed for right does them more persistent, more tenacious, more savvy?

Apparently so, if you consider that recent US presidents, besides the present, Bill Clinton, George Bush (father) and Ronald Reagan were, according to US media, or all points of the Spanish team in the last Davis Cup were won by players who handle lefty: Rafa Nadal, Fernando Verdasco and Feliciano Lopez. As is known, Nadal is only lefty to play tennis.

"Science has not proven to be handed means something different to become skillful. It's something little researched." It is true that "the fact of being in the minority leads some to have a more global view of things, easier to stand in the place of his opponent. Some may be provided with greater empathy"

NO DIFFERENCES HANDED TO RESOLVE UNLESS THINGS DIFFERENTLY.
Another thing is the opposition sports such as tennis or boxing, which handle the left has more advantages. "The skillful you are more predictable when majority, while lefties dislodged the contrary," Tan misplaced as was Roger Federer in the final of the Open of Australia, where after being beaten by Rafa Nadal and touched emotionally, said: "I would being left handed ".

Although Spain would correspond to four and a half million (about 10% of the population), it is not easy to find known left, except in the sports world, where the list of players players like Raul and Iker Casillas meet. The writer Javier Marías or King Juan Carlos are in that short list.

Right kids, right "is rare, because most adult generations left-handedness was corrected," explains López Aguilar, socialist candidate for the European Parliament elections next June 7. "It's what the King told me what happened," he says. The Socialist politician has reported that, as Minister of Justice, attended the Palacio de la Zarzuela to register the Infanta Leonor, eldest daughter of the Prince of Asturias, in the Register of the Royal Family. When the King saw him write with his left told him that he had also been a lefty, but he was forced to write right.

The affirmation of handedness in early childhood "denoting imagine determination, strength of will, strength, perseverance and rebellion," explains the Socialist candidate. "And in politics, writing with the left, which means some form of self-affirmation, may be symptomatic of skills to resolve complex situations".

Acquitted of his left-handedness "for being a prodigy artist and painter child," Lopez Aguilar reminded that, until then, her school in Las Palmas, was reprimanded for writing and persignarse left, "the devil's hand," he said. "With the right, kids, right," was the motto of his childhood.

"When you realize that your side is the sinister, you see that there are conceptual and moral categories conceived from and to the right. I teach that right is right, right And this is true in a variety of languages, in same in which the left is identified with the deviation from the norm, if not with the sinister, the sordid, dark force, the fallen angel side, Luciferian, loss of grace, "reasons this policy.

But what most upset, and in adulthood, is knowing that "in reality what happens to us lefties is that we have the dominant right hemisphere. I negatively impacted. I did not sit well," jokes the Socialist deputy. Different fate befell Joan Herrera (ICV), schooled about the Seventies in a school CEPEC "a fairly advanced pedagogical movement" in which they did not force him to use his right hand. "We have difficulty because the world is made for right from writing to drive, and we need more perseverance, especially in everyday life," says Herrera.

Question of hemispheres
Such distribution of cerebral hemispheres (the dominant right for left and left for right-handers) occurred at a particular time of evolution, in which the brain decided it would be desirable to have a motor circuit preferably on one side. "I do not know when it happened neurologist explains Juan José Zarranz-.
I fear that primitive men used both hands, but when writing and managing finest tools appears, the brain decides, depending on the economy, which was more profitable to operate a hand preferably. And just as an important part of the language's located in one hemisphere of the brain. "

Suppress left-handedness, which has a number of what are called "disgruntled lefties", "can cause delays in some function. With me they tried, and all you got is not to write well until ten. Smudged all was a disaster, "explains Dr. Zarranz, with a family zurdera five generations.

Things have changed and now "the left-handed child does not have to be problems in school. If a child is left-handed the best you can do is teach him to be full, and not worry about right, because it will go alone. Now who will teach life, "says José Eugenio Ortega.

This professor believes that "well educated, southpaw child will have a better than skillful craft, because you use the left top and right hand will have a greater ability than the right-handed left-handed".

But despite the new teaching techniques, the left children will have to continue to adapt to a right-handed world.

"This adaptive stress.
Neither better nor worse, different
