That happens the other way round too, hence the workaround GP suggested. It's a little uncomfortable because you naturally push the other way while cutting, but you can get used to it. When you use left handed scissors with your right hand, you apply some force to the blades that moves them slightly apart, while with right-handed ones, you force them together tightly. You need to actively work against that.
