I had never thought about this. (Of course, I’m a rightie.) It’s fascinating how many things like this we take for granted.

ReaderTunesOctopus OP ,

The worst things are fountain pens. My parents told me I can’t write with them properly because I’m lame. It turned out 30 years later that those are for right hand only by design, and only top quality ones write properly if you push it on the paper. Of course we didn’t have one of those.

Ouch.

My father is left-handed and has a lot of similar stories. Things are slightly better these days than they were in his time, but the world is still designed for the right-handed.

ReaderTunesOctopus OP ,

I used to have an evil plan to marry another leftie, set up the household with left handed stuff and mess with every visitor. Although at this point I probably couldn’t use a left handed can opener any more

I love it! Cognitive dissonance is always fun to watch.

The training I did only taught "the right handed way" despite me being a lefty since that's the only "correct" way of using a chainsaw. If you learn that way it becomes natural, like using a mouse right handed. If i pick up a chainsaw without thinking about it it immediately feels wrong and a switch to right hand grip.
