Yesterday was our 40th anniversary and I have been wanting one of these for as long as I can remember, since it is so hard to find things for us lefties.....

HEY !, you lefties aren't the only ones . There are times when I'm shopping and they're totally out the righties.

Great shot. I'm a lefty, but I've adapted and can use either one.

Need a cup for coffee drinkers who use both hands to hold the cup.

Too bad I didn’ Meet you 40 years ago. I would have told you about a new discovery back in the 70’s. It is called a bilateral cup. It has a universal design. Fits either hand and any size hand.

Every cup I own is a lefty. All have a massage on them be it political or historical or advertising.
On every one if I use the cup in my right hand the message faces me, and I want it to face my audience.
Discrimination I Say.

It is interesting. As a lefty I've had plenty of time to note that things like toothpaste tubes are right -hand oriented. Then go back a bit and remember the student chairs with their table on the right. Three ring note books were also an early tip off that the world was not quite right, somehow. And this little journey would not be complete without mentioning trying to write cursive with a fountain pen! Collectively, I think it made us more resilient and better problem solvers.

At the time when my son was in grade school, notebooks were being sold with spiral on the right side when the notebook was open. His teachers were frustrated with that every single time. Obviously, he's a lefty also.

My son is a lefty but learned to do most things with his right except writing. His teacher and I could only guide him while learning to write until he developed his own style. He's been an independent soul ever since.

We have both left and right models in our cup cabinet. I avoid confusion and potentially embarrassing moments by avoiding the handles.

I'd give my left hand to be ambidextrous.

As I sit here perusing the UHH Digest I am holding my coffee cup in my left hand. I never knew I was left handed.

It's a good thing my coffee cup is ambidextrous.
