Protect right-handedness (a parody)

[firecat]

If you'll forgive me for promulgating something snarky directed at Yes on Prop 8:

http://www.protectrighthandedness.com/take_action.html

The proposition places into the California Constitution the obvious will of the vast majority of Californians who are right-handed. It is simple and straightforward. It contains just 9 words (counting a hyphenated word as one) that are embraced by all moral Californians: 'Only right-hand dominance is valid and recognized in California.'

Be sure to go to the web site to look at their logo.

See, I do well with whiteboards and fountain pens. My wife, however, who is a righty, has trouble.

SHE writes with a "hook" -- her hand hooked around. And her mother, also a righty, has backslanted handwriting.

Me, I write WITHOUT a hook, and am a lefty.

It's weird all around, I guess.

I'm right-handed and write with a hook, but not enough of one to smear the ink. My sister is left-handed and does not write with a hook; she hates those wet-ink ballpoints I love so much, because she smears the ink as she writes. I don't know that she ever felt hassled about being left-handed (probably, she felt special for it) but I think she hated scissors with a passion (except our grandmother's special lefties) until she learned to use them right-handed.

All of which has very little to do with the parody, which I found pretty amusing.
