dexteronormativity


the subtle and harmful -ssumption of right-handedness in a person. a dexteronormative person might exclaim in surprise at the realisation that somebody is left-handed and draw attention to it in a way that would be ridiculous if it was to a right-handed person. this can lead to the left-handed person feeling “othered”, which can be very damaging to their sense of self.

dexteronormativity has also lead to a severe lack of representation for left handed people in the media, with left-handedness only ever being featured as a personality quirk in a character.

the use of “sinister” to refer to something that is menacingly different is a symptom of todays sinistrophobic culture.
“oh my g-d! you’re left handed! that is so weird!”
“that’s dexteronormativity!”
