NEW FINDINGS ON THE FREQUENCY OF LEFT- AND RIGHT-HANDEDNESS IN MEDIAEVAL BRITAIN. - English
URL: http://www.soton.ac.uk/~tjms/handed.html

Human handedness - the consistent preference for one hand in skilled manipulative tasks - is often said to be a defining trait. While other primates may demonstrate individual preferences for the right or left forelimb in reaching and in manipulating objects, only in human populations is there a consistent tendency for the right hand to be the preferred hand. In many societies, the left side is symbolically associated with ill-fortune: and in some societies, cultural pressures for the forced use of the right hand even by 'natural left-handers' drastically reduces the visibility of left-handedness in census databases.

Creation of the Sinister: Biological Contributions to Left-handedness - English
URL: http://hcs.harvard.edu/~husn/BRAIN/vol2/left.html

We live in a right-handed world. Left-handedness has been, and in some cases still is, considered an inconvenience, a bad habit, or a symbol of the "sinister". Studies still attempt to link left-handers with socially undesirable behaviors, such as psychosis or criminal activity. The social implications of these stigmas are immense. "Left-handers may be one of the last unorganized minorities in our society, with no collective power and no real sense of common identity," says Stanley Coren (1992).
