Left- or Right-Handed?

[Martok]

I consider myself more right-handed than not (it's the hand I use to write and to throw things with), although I'm left-handed when it comes to activities such as driving and some personal hygiene functions. I'm also left-handed when it comes to opening & closing stuff -- anything that has a door, lid, cover, etc., I generally use my left hand to open & close it.

[Craterus]

Left.

Those who believe they are ambidextrous because they can write with either hand, which hand do you use to hold a toothbrush? Assuming, of course, that you use one.

Sadly, Husar, left-handed people are apparently more prone to

auto-immune disorders, learning disorders, dyslexia, and stuttering, as well as increased spatial ability.

In 2007, researchers discovered LRRTM1, the first gene linked to increased odds of being left-handed. The researchers also claim that possessing this gene slightly raises the risk of psychotic mental illnesses such as schizophrenia.

But I think I'm ok with that

[Samurai Waki]

Left Handed by nature, Although I'm from the era that forced people to use their right hand. So Now I do most things right handed, but it always feels a little more awkward.

I'm in that club, too. Started out left-handed, then shown the evil of my ways by Catholic nuns at age 8, and converted to right-handed. Sometimes, in forgetfulness or under stress, I revert to left-handed for some tasks, to the amazement of my (left-handed) wife.

Thankfully, I'm young enough that people don't force me to be right-handed.

It's kinda weird though...

[Tristuskhan]

My parents were asked by the teachers their opinion about a prompt forced reducation as they discovered I was left-handed 30 years ago. I'm glad they refused and was not sentenced to torture and dyslexism.

Well, as long as you don't have any of these you're pretty much a genius.

[Gaius Scribonius Curio]

Right-handed and used to be ridiculously right-footed, but now can use my left for tricks (but not much more).

My brother though is insane. He's totally ambidextrous, both hands and both feet. He bats right-handed, bowls left-handed, can write with either hand, can score a goal from 30 yards with either foot....

...the list goes on.

I'm right-handed. There are a few things that I can do with both hands like throwing or playing table tennis. Right hand is always better.

My younger sister is left-handed, but she was forced (in school) to be right-handed since 3rd grade. So, she is both hands now, but she still prefers left hand, especially when eating.

My second older sister is right-handed when writting. She eats left-handed and she does other things both hands (left hand for precision, right hand for power).

One of my niece is left-handed when righting, but right-handed for everything else.

My nephew is right-handed, but sometimes he does his homework left-handed when he gets distracted or getting lazy (doing homework with left hand and playing with right hand).

[Spartan198]

Gah! I'm ambidexterous.

[CountArach]

Right handed, but I prefer left handed if you know what I mean...

[Tristuskhan]

Left handed, but I used to play tennis with my right hand (except serving with my left hand), and most of the tools are designed for right-handers (ever tried to use scissors or a chainsaw in a left-hand way? Good luck...). I can aim with both eyes but my left is slightly better.

[Ayce]

Left-handed here! And wow, 23% left-handed in the poles?!
