Do you know the reverse grip trick that lets you use rightie scissors with your left hand anyways?
It’s mostly useful for small cuts because it’s also awkward, but it will cut instead of bend.
It works because your thumb and fingers apply sideways force that pushes the cutting blades together if the scissors match the hand or apart if they don’t, but reversing the grip (as in having the blades on your palm side instead of pointing away from you) reverses the forces they apply.

of course mimi is a leftie. explains that sinister vibe.
Unless the next frame is her intently trying to use the scissors while the paper just bends parallel to the blades instead of cutting.
that or a finger goes flying. leftie scissors (well, rightie scissors for me) are so damn easy to hurt yourself with.

As a leftie who has been forced to use right handed scissors, this is how I’ve done it since I figured it out as a kid.
that just feels dangerous…
Am very confused by this are we saying if she was right wing she would be covering up male nipples?
Or that she would agree that female nipples are somhow vastly different to male nipples?
…she’s holding the scissors with her left hand. sinister is latin for left.
God am such idiot!
I needed that explanation. Thanks.
They’re pointing out that she’s left-handed
