Simplistically, our brains and bodies are cross wired. The left side of our brains controls the right sides of our bodies, and the Right Side of our brain control the left side of our bodies. also it means that your logical and analytical side of your brain control you. also you are probably right handed.

Is the dominant hand a good indicator of the dominant hemisphere of the brain Why or Why not?
Yes, many of the functions you do with the dominant hand determines which side of the brain is more used. Be careful though, the right hand is controlled by the left side of the brain, and vice versa with the left hand.
Are left-handed people left-hemisphere dominant?
Well, it depends. 90-95% of right handed people are left hemisphere dominant, but 65-75% of LEFT-handed people are LEFT hemisphere dominant.
Are men right or left brained?
Yes, in a manner of speaking. The brain is divided into two hemispheres, right and left. People tend to have a dominant hemisphere which is what also drives their being right or left handed. People who have a dominant right hand (e.g., it is the one they write with and eat with), have a dominant left hemisphere of their brain and vice versa, those who write with their left hands are said to have a dominant right hemisphere of the brain. So, sometimes those with dominant right hands are called "left-brained" people.It is because the right side of the brain controls muscles on the left side of the body and the left side of the brain controls muscles on the right side of the body.Certain traits and abilities are also associated with the different brain hemispheres, for example:The right hemisphere is associated with:Spatial abilitiesFace recognitionVisual imageryMusicThe left Hemisphere is associated with:LanguageMathLogicMy nephew, who is left-handed, likes the pun: "Only left handed people are in their right minds."For more interesting information about the hemispheres of the brain and some experiments you can do to learn more about them, see the related link below.
Which hemisphere of the cerebral cortex is usually dominant in spatial tasks?
The left hemisphere is dominant in language tasks.
Why do you say that the right hemisphere is the subordinate or minor hemisphere?
It's not always the right hemisphare, the subordinate/minor hemisphere is the NOT dominant hemisphare. In more than 90% of population the left hemisphare is the dominant which makes the right the subordinate hemisphares. But in some (not all) left handed the right is the dominant hemisphere and the left is the subordinate hemisphare.
What is the location and of right hemisphere in the brain?

Which part of the brain is the most functionally dominant in the majority of the population?
the left cerebral hemisphere
Which hemisphere controls the right side of the body?
Neurons cross from the right side to the left, as do neurons cross from the left to the right, meaning your right side of your brain controls your left, and your left controls your right side.
