| Left or right handed or both?
Posted: 4/9/2008 6:21:21 PM | There's a great saying, "Lefties are the only ones in our right mind". I am a south paw  (love this icon because it too is a south paw)  (as is this one)
I am able to write with my right hand but this has come to be not naturally, but more of a bar trick. In school I was never struck for writing with the wrong hand, other reasons though. Unless you are a lefty, you don't realize how many things are designed for righties, but we're so used to it we don't even notice and adapt with ease. However, what we do notice are other lefties in a room. | |

Posted: 4/9/2008 11:35:26 PM | | I am both.When I was 18,I cut my fingers on my right hand pretty bad,and had to write my grade 12 exams with my left hand,along with almost everything else for 2 months.Since I play guitar and piano,and do a lot of work with my hands,I am equally adept with both.Its called ambidextrous. | |

Posted: 4/10/2008 6:55:03 AM | So according to this thread there are more ambidextrous people than there are lefties? I dunno about all that, but anyway... I'm left handed. I favor my right hand for many things, but I can only write with my left hand. My dad is severely left handed. He might as well not even have a right hand.

Posted: 4/11/2008 6:54:42 AM | | my dad wouldn't hand me anything as a baby if i reached for it w/ my left hand. i i'm right hand dominant, but in elementary school, i had a cast on my right arm for quite some time, so i taught myself to write with my left with little difficulty. it's legible. i can write backwards too. am i dyslexic? | |
