Life Choices Survey
We are undertaking the biggest ever survey of left-handedness in various Groups of people to find out what advantages and disadvantages left-handers have and how it affects their choices and success of career, sports, social activities and other lifestyle choices.
We want as many individuals and group organisers as possible to complete the survey so we have a large sample to analyse and give reliable results. Please complete the survey yourself and ask other people you know if they would be willing to do it as well.
If you are active in more than one "group" please complete a separate survey for each group, e.g. if you are an Architect who runs a football team and a car club, please fill out the survey once for each group
All information provided for this survey will be kept strictly confidential.

Thank you!
We will be reporting on the results as they come in with features in the Left-Handers Club newsletters and we will make sure we let you know about the final report on the results when we produce it early in 2008.

yaah i have seen ur site but it has anlytical vision of why and how the logic works to be left-hander.I suport this view that lefty are superb but not any survey or any organisation has proven the core thing behind the subject what the iffect and missiffect occurs in the lefty life occurs if by badluckly does not initiate his life with left-hand if he would be right what would occured and how does this effects the humanbody minds and thinking system.This is the issue which has not come
in light and the authenticity to use the proper hand this is till today is a secret thing for anybody.Neither any organisation nor science has proven such things.I say that this may hardly iffect the human thinking-system and
make poor iifects on his visionary and listening system.It all deteriorates vthe functionality of mind .
It may be a great disaster for anybody and the man may have to face the puzzled and troublesome situation alike.It may make the human falling in dump situation like illnness of mind and
mind-stopping phase.U would bbe surprised to know it but it's a black-truth.The left-hander should not be made right-hander at any cost.

I live others have been trying to figure out why I am left-handed. My other sibling, a brother who is four years younger than me, is also left-handed. Both of our parents are right-handed and there is no known relative that is or was left-handed before us. We both went through school with trying to be made to do things with our right hands, but still a left-handed. I have five children with only one left-handed. I have only one out of twelve grandchildren who are left handed. The grandchild is not from my left-handed child and the father has no known left-handers on his side. My brother has three children with only one being left-handed. My sister-in-law has no known left-handers on her side of the family. How did we become left-handed and how many of our future generations will contain lefties? My grandson, who is the leftie, is a pitcher for the San Francisco Giants farm club.

I am also the only lefty in my immediate family, but luckily for me, my mother embraced my difference and learned how to write left handed to teach me and help me stay left-handed. Not too many people can say their parents went out of there way for their differences. I do not "hook" when I write; I have beautiful penmanship, and am also ambidextrous. I know it sounds like I am "tooting my own horn". But I am very lucky! There are still many things that irritate me because they are made for right handed people. I hated bartending in college with all right-handed bartenders! All the bottle pour spouts faced the wrong way for me. Wine bottle openers are very hard to screw in too. But, I learned to do both and it is more fun to throw the bottle in the air and spin it for the left hand, then some boring righty pour any day! I am sending out a thanks to my mom for making me love being left-handed and thanking God for giving me all the sensitive, intuitive, and creativeness that comes with being a lefty.

I found this site from my lefthanders calander and thought gee, a survey for lefties. NOT, just for groups. Lefties have enough going against them, then to have a surver too. Give me a break. I was the only leftie in school, until high school. There are NO lefties in my family, so where I came from, no one knows. And NO, I am not adopted. I must be a throw back to some obscure ancestor. I had to learn to use 'rightie' scissors, knit righthanded, crochet, write so I didn't smear my paper... Thank goodness the sewing machine was invented by a lefty or I probably wouldn't be able to sew. ;-))

Very weird. There are no options for indivial responding to the survey.
I wanted to comment on how certain jobs have become easier for left handed people since the introduction of computerised technology. I was a telephone operator back in the '60s when you had to dial numbers, the dial was on the right hand side of the switchboard and as the regulations required me to dial with pencil, not my finger, I was for ever having to switch the pencil from letft to right hand, also, my right wrist was not as responsive as my left, so I was one slow operator!
