Are men right or left brained?
Yes, in a manner of speaking. The brain is divided into two hemispheres, right and left. People tend to have a dominant hemisphere which is what also drives their being right or left handed. People who have a dominant right hand (e.g., it is the one they write with and eat with), have a dominant left hemisphere of their brain and vice versa, those who write with their left hands are said to have a dominant right hemisphere of the brain. So, sometimes those with dominant right hands are called "left-brained" people.It is because the right side of the brain controls muscles on the left side of the body and the left side of the brain controls muscles on the right side of the body.Certain traits and abilities are also associated with the different brain hemispheres, for example:The right hemisphere is associated with:Spatial abilitiesFace recognitionVisual imageryMusicThe left Hemisphere is associated with:LanguageMathLogicMy nephew, who is left-handed, likes the pun: "Only left handed people are in their right minds."For more interesting information about the hemispheres of the brain and some experiments you can do to learn more about them, see the related link below.
Why do you say that the right hemisphere is the subordinate or minor hemisphere?
I didn't say the right hemisphere is subordinate or minor.

The right hemisphere is often associated with creativity, intuition, and spatial reasoning, but it is not considered lesser in importance compared to the left hemisphere.

What two functions are dominant on the right side of the brain?
The left side of the brain (or the left hemisphere) has many functions. Two of these are: 1) Processing of information - the left side of the brain takes small bits of information then orders and processes them to get the whole picture and form conclusions. (In contrast, the right side of the brain will look at the whole picture first and then break it down). 2) Processing of symbols and numbers - People who have a more dominant left side of the brain are usually able to solve maths and logic problems more easily than people with a dominant right hemisphere. The related link explains in more detail how the brain works in an easy to understand way.
