My mum is from Italy, she was born near Florence and my Dad was born in Russia.
So yes, the Catholic Church was very present (and still today) in her education so it was tough for her. She really felt ashamed all these years but she learnt to get though this and is now proud to be a left handed woman.
As for me, a teacher once put me desk against the left wall, I complained because I couldn't write with the wall against my arm (obviously) and they mocked me about it. My dad made such a big scandal lmao
