Question of the Day, Wed 8/13

We have 2 again today.

Today is:

International Left Handers Day - Are you a lefty? Is someone in your family a lefty? My dad is a left hander. When my brother was growing up, my dad wanted him to be left handed like him. So, when he was old enough for writing, sports, etc, he'd make my brother use his left hand. Today, at 35 years old, my brother uses his left hand for everything (sports, hunting, etc.) EXCEPT for writing!

Today is also:

National Underwear Day - You already know the question! Do you or don't you? If yes, what's your preference?

As a lefty I find certain parts of the righty world prohibitive. Notebooks are prime example. While I was in school they did not make the backward spiral or 3 ring notebooks they make today. It was very hard to write in one of those.My wife and I are both left handed with a right handed daughter. What a joy learning to write was!!

Underwear...one word.. Commando

My sister and I are both lefties. My parents are right handed. They never tried to make us right handed but the only way they could help us learn to throw a ball or anything else was with their right hand. So, I write with my left hand but do most everything else with my right hand. After years of struggling in school with crappy left handed scissors, I taught myself to cut right handed as well.

Lefty Here!!
I am an only child with 3 kids none of which are lefty's.
Growing up in a right handed world I have had to adapt and do everything except for eat and write with my right hand. I even throw and crochet right handed. As an Artist I paint using both hands. I feel fortunate to be able to have this ability. Poor Righty's have never had to push themselves into this and seems can't use their left hands at all.

Underwear day...
Maybe it goes with being left handed but I hate them, including that butt floss thing!

My husband is a lefty....Luckily our son is a righty, but our daughter has quite a few lefty tendancies at only 8 months old, so we shall see about her.

As for underwear, yes....just make sure they're clean!
