Although they can face day to day disadvantages (this is a right hand world after all) lefties have many advantages that righties don't have.
Lefties tend to be creative geniuses(Leonardo da Vinci and Michalangelo to name a few). Although many are more prone to learning disorders such as dyslexia, they also have a good share of writers too(Lewis Carroll, Douglas Adams, Leo Tolstoy, & Kurt Vonnegut, to name a few). Lefties also are talented musically (Kurt Cobain, Bach, David Bowie, Jimmie Hendrix, & Paul McCartney, to name a few).

Lefties are also very good in sports. In baseball, 'southpaws' are a commodity, since they pitch from a different angle (in the batter's perspective) than a rightie. Southpaws also have an advantage in boxing, since they can attack righties from different areas than they are used to (Babe Ruth & Sandy Koufax).

Also, because in some cases left handedness is discouraged, many lefties are ambidexterous....they can use either hand for writing or other activities (but still prefer the left).

Do you know about the left and right halves of the brain? The right half of the brain controls the left half of the body, and vice versa. The right half of the brain, which controls your left hand, is good at abstract, creative, artistic, emotional things. Here is a very enlightening article on the subject. I think it will help answer your question.

Left brained (right handed) people are good at mechanical thinking and right brained are good at artistic things.

Everything, because right-handed folks just can't cope outside of their righty world, so us lefties adapt, adopt, and excel.
