im so fucking glad that left-handed hate is *mostly* gone, but as a left-handed person, the remnants of millennia of bullshit remain all over culture. so many things are solely designed for right handed people, and basically every language has a sinister dexterity with which it has morphed old words for "left" into negative words like "sinister" and words for "right" into positive words like "dexterity". i did a silly thing there, but read the Language section here and be horrified. like, fuck, ambidextrous just means "right handed on both sides", fuck you.
