When producing a product, it is generally designed and produced by considering the widest customer base. Since most of the people in the world are right-handed, products are designed according to them. Still, there are those who consider lefties as a niche market.
scissors
All scissors are actually a simple machine. Especially in fabric scissors, one side has a sharp blade, while the other side has a blunt blade and its holes are uneven. So, how are these designed? Right handed of course. Fortunately, left-handed scissors are now available.
fountain pens
Of course, there are those who scatter all the writing while writing, like me, and those whose writing is broken because the flow of ink is interrupted. Pens with a handle suitable for left-handers’ grips and nibs that provide ink flow in accordance with hand movements in the opposite direction are now produced.
Can opener
Due to their structure, can openers are made to fit in our strong hands. Naturally, the structure of can openers is right-handed. For this reason, we had to enter strange shapes or open cans at strange angles to open with the left hand.
Coffee pot
Turkish coffee is known as one of the indispensables of our kitchen. Although new tools have emerged for making coffee, the most traditional and common method is the coffee pot. The mouths of the coffee pots, which are made to pour the coffee properly, are made according to the scenario where we hold the coffee pot with the right hand. Pouring coffee with the left hand is a big problem.
Arm Chair
Exams in schools, school entrance exams, ALES, KPSS, YDS, LYS, TUS, as many combinations of three letters with the letter S at the end, we take and leave the exam. In these exams or in some schools, we come across arm chairs. We came across it, but the armrest part, which was always used for writing, was in the wrong place, our back ached.
Mouse
You may have noticed that computer mice are always to the right of computers. Most left-handed people also use a mouse with their right hand. Why? If you don’t have a symmetrical mouse, you can see for yourself how uncomfortable it is if you try holding your mouse with your left hand. Fortunately, there are now left-handed rats too.
Marker
Not being able to see what you’re drawing while drawing something with a highlighter can turn into a nightmare. You have to find the place you want to draw on the page as a projection and draw it blindly accordingly. Moreover, since the tips of the highlighter are curved, you are scanning at absurd angles. When you try to fix it, this time you are bending the page. . .
keyboard number pad
Although using the part with the numbers on the right side of the keyboard sounds very natural to most of us, it is not very useful for left-handed people. Maybe we don’t notice much in daily use, but imagine that you are an accountant or a banker who constantly enters numbers.
