I have never once tried it from the other side. I get on from the left side only, being a lefty.

Bike seats hurt my nethers.

I get on from the left and I’m a righty. And bike seats make my nethers numb.

Try it - see what happens

no don’t

I can mount from either side. Figured that out when I was ten, and teaching my lefty brother who wanted to mount from the right because he was a Southpaw Nazi even at age six.

I am a righty and I can mount from both sides but I think that’s because I taught myself how to ride a bike using the curb in front of my house so which side I got on depended on which direction I was facing.

Nice.

Did any of you lefties have people try to beat the left outta ya?

I was probably a lefty but I went to Catholic school…

My handwriting is terrible, and I overcompensate by being a right-wing asshole even though I don’t believe in anything except love.

So we have the nuns to blame for your faulty thinking?

And, wtf? You’re too young to have had anyone force you to write with yer right hand.

No one ever told me being a Southpaw was wrong. No one except the people who make all the shit that’s made fer righties.

I think some of the nuns did.

Nun teachers

shudder

They beat the shit out of one of my friends as well…

They stopped that shit just a couple years before I started going to Catholic School, although I did watch a teacher stick a kid’s head in a garbage can then tie him to a desk when I was in grade 5.

Yeah they were slowly stopping it but there were some old battle axes still around.
