All That's Left...

I can't believe it never popped into my head until now:
Are most rebellious people left-handed?

Because in analyzing myself, I see a pattern that probably starts with the inherent fact that I am left-handed. A natural deviant, automatically different and in the minority.

And when I ask of "rebellious", I'm going for the broadest possible meaning, that can still have meaning, that is.
Not just statistics on people in alternate lifestyles or subcultures. Psychopaths? Homicidal maniacs?


Please could you stay awhile to share my grief / For it's such a lovely day to have to always feel this way / And the time / That I will suffer less / Is when / I never have to wake. [Portishead, Wandering Star]

I am a right-handed rebellious one. However, I do use my left-hand for many things. I found you on blogspot. I have a "thing" with the number 42, as well.

Both of my son's are left-handed.
