This picture shows a posting by „The Sleight Doctor“ on mastodon. It reads: „Perhaps it's time to tap the chart again. Left-handed people were once seen as sinister (the word sinister, from Latin, originally meant "left" or "on the left side") so kids were forced to be right-handed. However, with advances in science it became clear that brains were hard-wired for handedness, and society began to accept it as normal. The number of left-handers rose dramatically, but plateaued at 12% in the 60s and has stayed steady since. This is a post about trans and non-binary people.“
The history of left-handedness can be applied to trans- / non-binary people as well… #transgender #nonbinary #lefthandedness
