THINGS ON LEFT-HANDED

THINGS ON LEFT-HANDED
The Royal Spanish Academy dictionary dela tells us that Lefty (a) is a person who has a natural tendency to use preferably hand and the left side of the body.
Wikipedia informs us that "A group of researchers at the University of Oxford discovered in August 2007 that the LRRTM1 gene (encoding the development of asymmetry in the brain) would also be involved so that a person is left-handed, also has discovered in 2013 that the PCSK6 gene, which is known to be involved in the early establishment of laterality in developing embryos, presents a genetic variant that would be equally involved in addition to the preference for using the left hand or the right. "
Much is said about the people who are left-handed, it is stated for example that only 10% of the world's population is left-handed and brain connections Lefties are faster and might be more sensitive to different stimuli, also comments that tend to draw faces or figures are right and that many of these people go to extremes in personality, because they tend to be highly painful or extremely uninhibited.
Some studies show that for lefties is 100 times easier to learn to use the right hand to write well for right-handers learn to use his left hand. In another study with about 1.4 million people, it was found that left-handers have a much lower rate of arthritis and ulcers and in another study reaffirms that lefties are more likely to become alcoholics, schizophrenics or dyslexic that that they are not.
In an Internet site we find more information at the same we are told that "In research asked 100 people watching a horror movie, the left-handed half and the right-handed half, the results showed that 40% of lefties had very scared, compared with 20% of right-handers. In short, lefties are more fearful. "
And although you can not believe, history tells us that during the Holy Inquisition lefties were persecuted and were burned alive for being called "Servants of Satan". It is also said that left-handers are very likely to have allergies to different things and commented that "Even today in different parts of the world, mainly in the Middle East and Asia, many children are punished in schools for using his left hand, this in parts it means that you are a child of the devil and while on average in most countries the percentage of left-handers is 10%, in Japan it is curiously only 2%. The reason is because as children are taught to use only his right hand in most cities and schools. "
And for all lefties who do not know on what day your day is celebrated, they know that it is on August 13.
