My mother is a southpaw...as a result, I learned how to do things in reverse from what is natural for me. I always thought I was a klutz...and didn't make the connection for years. So I can answer for her...it's having a right-handed daughter!
I think the advantage might be...if you choose a strategic side of the bed...when you are lying in bed at night with your loved one, who is right-handed...you have no difficulty reaching out to each other in the night...and holding hands comfortably.

Here is a strange but interesting fact:
Only 7 per cent of the population are lefties (http://www.didyouknow.cd/fastfacts/facts.htm).
Me being a left (for writing) mean I am ambidextorus meaning I can do things with both hands. Such as a throw with my right hand, eat with my left and write with my left. So if really depends what I do.
But the only probably with being a left for writng is that I smudge the prvious words when my habd keeps moving. I wouldn't change being one.
I hear: "I didn't know your a lefty" all the time. haha.

I'm a lefty and the hardest part is writing with messy pens, I wasn't born in the US and I wasn't taught the proper way to write with a left hand, they were actually trying to teach me how to write with a right hand so I could be like everyone else.
The best part is being alittle bit different, people notice that you're a lefty and sometimes it's an icebreaker. And there's an instant comradery with other lefties :)
They say that all lefties are in their right mind (Haha not me)

It's kind hard being a lefty because when I right down something in pen I make the ink smear but I love being left handed and wouldn't change.

The hardest part is still GRABBING the paper from someone who is holding it down turned the wrong way and trying to get my signature. There is also the putting the cards in envelopes upside down for righties..and learning all of my sports right handed. Oh yeah..and all the ink marks on my hand!

hardest parts of being left-handed:
writing with pencils, writing in three ring binders, writing with messy pens, dealing with teachers/coaches/and any other instructors who insisted that i'm not REALLY left-handed.
the best parts of being left-handed:
because i'm always looking at things from a different perspective (any physical activity requires some problem solving to adjust for left-handedness) has really helped me consider "the other side" of any situation. plus, i think it has also helped me realize that it is ok to be different, stand out, and just be comfortable with who i am. lefties are always different, and we tend to be more creative too.

You already know the answer to that. The combination of the right side of the brain and the left part of the body is like music and the imagination to make it all come together in a solitude of blissful climax. And my Dad forced me to eat with my right hand.

writing with an ink pen and you want to write something really nice then it smears. Ugh. Writing from the beginning of a binder but the loops get in the way. Playing instruments is easy for me. I love being sinister.

Happy Southpaw day to you too.
Just having the uniqueness itself is its curse/reward.
Glad they never changed me.
