Left-handed people make up about 11% of the population

If you are a left-handed person, you can proudly say you are one-in-ten. Lefties make up approximately 11 percent of the world’s population. While the reason behind being either left- or right-handed is biological and genetic and nature, being left-handed does come with other similar traits as well. Left-handed people are generally more creative, imaginative, and intuitive. They also tend to score better in both rhythm and visualization tests. The biggest drawback of being left-handed is that everything is made for right-handed people, with scissors and desks often being ill-suited for the lefties out there.
