Who lives longer right handed people or left handed?

Question

Who lives longer right handed people or left handed?

Answer 1

right handed people do(im glad my boyfriend and i both are right handed).Ive always heard that Left Handed people dont live that long because this world was made for Right Handed People,its very Rare for there to be Left Handed people.It makes them seem like their the "minority".Mostly every tool,scissor,or equipment is made for a right handed person.Even in a episode of the simpsons Ned Flanders had the Leftorium with all Left-Handed Stuff.I feel bad for Left-Handed people.

Answer 2

i hope right cause i'm a righty

Answer 3

I've heard that righties live on average between 6-8 years longer than lefties. I don't know how accurate that is though.

Answer 4

You can't really tell, coz it depends on the brain. Right handed people are controlled by their left side of the brain and vice versa for left handed people. So if a person happens to damage either one side of the brain, then depending on whether they are left/right handed, they will be affected.

Answer 5

Right handed people are more likely to live longer. The world is accommodated for right handed people and not really for left handed people. Lefties are more likely to get injured by trying to use equipment created for right handed people.

Answer 6

I don't think it matters.

I mean think about it..

Some people are right and left handed..

In writing and everything..

Like me..

I write with my right and left hand..

so does that mean i should add up the average ages for the two and thats how long i will live?

Thats why I am saying.. it doesnt matter

Answer 7

Answer 9
