omg -- as you say to be born left-handed [or a girl] is no longer to one's detriment [mostly] -- it is fictitious and a fallacy that one is inferior - I once rode surfboards with my right foot forward [equivalent to left handed] and rode skateboards the other way, left foot forward [right-handed equivalent] and did both with an amount of expertise -- and all during the same time period -- It is interesting you say you have developed some form of clumsiness as a result, because you are not a person to be associated with clumsiness, it is a pity there was such a prejudice on such things in your youth!
