Contrast this with the bad luck of a toad that fails to jump away from a snake approaching from its right, just because its right eye is much worse at spotting the danger than its left. Apart from a few wrist aches, though, my handedness hasn’t been too much of a burden. For each project I attempted, I’d struggle with tools and techniques that didn’t suit a left-hander like me, which often made me wonder why humans are wired to prefer using one side of the body over the other.
HANDICRAFTS were never my strong point at school.
Primates, like humans, can be left or right-handed
