Why doesn't anyone discuss whether "yemin" means the right side when the
baal habayis is a lefty hanging a mezuzah for his own hom?
Or to be less pretencious: *Does* anyone discuss if a lefty should hang his
mezuzos on the other side?
My wife is a righty and we use joint accounts. We are both listed as owners,
and both of our names were on the mortgage. Even if I were supposed to hang
my mezuzos on the left, are we shutefim in owning the house and therefore it
should follow the rightward norm?
I asked R' Gidon Rothstein, since it was his recent post on Torah Musings
that launched my wondering, and he felt that it would go by the assumption
that typical people coming in and out of the house are righty, and the
owner's handedness shouldn't matter.
:-)BBii!
