At the church picnics, they would hold contests that involved moving soy beans from one bowl to another. I always won. Beat out those old ladies who thought a lefty was a devil's child. I showed those old bitties. My mom stopped the teachers at the school from punishing me for being left-handed. And...... I never held the writing instruments properly, either. My penmanship wasn't great, but hey, we use technology............... okay, one more. I hunt and peck on the keyboard. Hee hee.......

Lefthanded too and definitely janky with the chopsticks.
I've gotten better over time, but the stress the waives over me when eating at a spot that only serves you with chopsticks, with a table of Asians is palpable.
I don't have the nerve to ask for a fork
