And worst still, left-handed people have always had to suffer at the
expense of rities.  Consider writing.  Most modern languages force one to
write from left to right.  Thats fine if your a ritie, but consider us poor
discriminated against, left-handers.  Unless we contort our writing hand into
wierd and un-natural positions (the infamous hook style for example) we will
strain our necks and smear ink/pencil all over the paper!  And where is the
left-handed person that can forget the degradation involved in using the
'leftie' scissors in elementary school.  Many a left-handed person I know
will bear the psychological scars for life.  I mean with the little green
rubber covered handles that seem to broadcast "crippled!" to the world.
The world has always moved for rities, but this is not 'right'.  Left-handed
people are the few, the bold, the proud, the elite.  Why should we not rise
up and overthrow the bonds of the ritie bourgeoisie!

Left-handed people of the world unite!  We have nothing to lose but our
chains!
