I’m dyslexic, and so is my mom. We both do it. Just like reading and writing, the more I practice the better I do with it.
I would say, it’s just kind of not how my brain works. People ask how I don’t know my right from my left, and I always want to ask how they don’t know how to change the brakes on their car, or rebuild a bicycle, or repair your espresso machine. I can take something apart and understand how it works, that’s how my brain works. Left and right less so.
My mom is the same way. She got into home repairs after retired. She redid her entire kitchen. New cabinets, tile work, gas lines, plumbing, trim, and paint. She’s a woman in her 60s.
People’s brains are weird.
