How to use "Left-handed" in context?
Most people are right-handed. That is, they use their right hand more than their left and this is largely genetically determined. Indeed, around 98% of people are right-handed. However, there are a significant number of people who are left-handed. This is estimated to be around 10-15% of the population. Left-handedness is not simply a matter of anatomy. Many left-handed people find that their preferred way of doing things is with their left hand. left-handedness can also be a result of neurological differences. Some left-handed individuals may have better coordination and dexterity in their left hand than their right.
