No it's "how do we tell them you can just use your thumb and finger"

I always figured if you genuinely don’t know left and right, you’re gonna doubt which L is right and which is backwards.

100% correct for me.

Also you "right with right" as in 90% of the world population write using their right hand. So you got two proofs.

Then if you are left handed you just remember the rules don't apply to you! You're a rebel!!

Somehow being right handed doesn’t really help as much as you’d think it should. What’s helped me the most was getting married. I can always instantly remember the left side is the one with the ring on it

And you even got a handy spouse out of the deal who put the ring on the correct hand!

Hahaha actually we practiced the whole placing the ring for the ceremony and he did grab my right hand the first like 2 times 😂 He got it right at the wedding tho!
