Here’s a thing: left handers are meant to be more intelligent than right handers. Even as a left hander, I’m fairly sceptical as to whether this is actually true but studies have shown there is some evidence for this.
Apparently, right handed people process information in their brains in a linear sequence - ie, they complete one thread of thought before going on to the next. On the other hand, we southpaws are supposed to use a ‘visual simultaneous’ method where we process lots of threads at the same time.
So, if right handers can only handle one piece of information at time, surely they must be slower thinkers, right? But, even if that's true, does that make them any less intelligent?

I wish I could have the brain of a right hander for a day to see if I could discern any difference.
If we did that, we'd probably end up being very analytical and logical for the day.
