The acceptableness of being naturally left-handed is a fairly recent development. Throughout most of history, right-handedness (which most people display) was considered "normal", whereas anything different (lefties) was seen as suspect at the least, and evil at worst. The Latin name for the left hand is mana sinestra - the "sinister" hand.
