Holy shit, that poll result. We need a scientific study on gamers, NOW.

Indeed. I know way less rgiht handed people in real life than what those poll results imply.


i know wtf! maybe just maybe... lefty tend to game more than righty in ratio
 :O but why!?

Well, there are theories that suggest that left-handedness tells us something about how our brains work. Left-handers tend to show brain functionality that's more evenly distributed across both hemispheres of the brain, whereas right-handers tend to have more asymmetrical brains, with language activity located mostly in the left hemisphere.

Researchers still don't have many concrete ideas about what all this means, but there is evidence that shows left-handers are more likely to be ambidextrous, which might help with video games.

In any event, it's very strange to see so many left-handers in the poll. The percentage of left-handers in the world hovers around 10 percent.
