. TABLE OF CONTENTS toc At family dinners, I have my own special seat at the end of the table. My mom used to cut the fabric for me when I would sew, because I couldn't use the scissors properly. Before I shake hands with people, I have to stop and think before I stick out my right hand. I am a lefty. And I live in a right-handed world. I have to use the computer mouse on the right side, turn my body to write on right-handed desks and am painfully bad at sports because they're designed for righties. Today, Jayplay is catering to the lefties of the world. You may have noticed your copy of Jayplay opens from the opposite side, making it easy for southpaws to thumb through and giving righties a taste of their own medicine. Jacky Carter looks at life through the eyes of a southpaw, uncovering what makes that 10 to 15 percent of the population different and how a lefty's life can be stressful living in a right-handed world. Even this world is predominately geared toward right-handed folk,I'm accustomed to the right — my wrong— way of doing things. And, who knows, maybe with some more practice I'll get better at sports.
