- Go to Hands, and handedness…II
Perhaps using the right hand does not strain the heart so much or sword fighting puts more of a distance between the point.Also shaking hands instead of jabbing one in the chest. I suppose we have to think of how we evolved was it easier to climb a tree using the right hand,arm. I am going out to climb one and prove my point. Well a small one.
Quite interesting though you know what you are talking about.

I never thought about animals having pawdedness, but it makes sense given that we have handedness.

Many, many, including myself, are left-handed in my family. Seems to be an inherited trait. LOL!

excellent post....I think cats can do more but it takes patience. Graysome will use his paw to tap us on the leg to gain attention, especially when I am on the computer.

Son Rusty is left-handed & we've done some research on the
brain differences (left vs right, etc.) and he has informed me that as a left-handed person he's the one who's in his right mind.

Great post! Hmm, yes, I had somewhere heard of the "spin" difference, I think. But now, I really wonder, what accounts for that right-left difference at the sub-atomic level? If is was random, wouldn't the odds be 50-50 for right-left spin? Back to pawedness, I had noticed that about doggies and is so interesting. Intersting that the great apes won't look one in the eye, yet have a high intelligence.
