Posted: 9/12/2009 2:27:40 PM | I'm left handed.I also bite my nails.I just noticed after 36 years that I bite my nails on my right hand but not my left hand.
Right brain/left brain thing?
I think a lot different from most people,everything about me is anti-normal.
If you're left-handed,do you think you're different?

Posted: 9/13/2009 1:20:46 AM | I'm left handed, and so is my daughter. Nothing pleases me more than to see her friends come over, and ask to borrow either mine or the rodent's computer - and then see the look of total confusion on their faces when they try to deal with a mouse to the left of the keyboard, with the buttons reversed :-)
Yes - we're definitely different. | |

Posted: 9/13/2009 9:44:03 AM | I'm the only left-handed person in my family (and suspect that my dog might be too  ). However, I was taught to use the computer mouse with my right hand, and have become so accustomed to it that I wouldn't be able to use it with my left. | |

Posted: 9/13/2009 10:56:32 AM | Yes, I want to be different, too. I consider myself unique as I for one wan to be my own self, not keep up with the Joneses.

Lefties unite!
You have to make sure to alternate hands, otherwise you'll bend one way eventually...
Oh, we're talking about something else? My bad. | |

My sister is left-handed and loves to point out that she's the only one in her right mind... | |

Posted: 9/13/2009 8:40:39 PM | | I was right handed but got a overnight change after an injury. Being forced not only to use one hand only but for it to be the non dominate hand was no picnic | |

I use a mouse with my right hand as well. I prefer it that way too. Since I naturally use my writing/drawing tablet with my left hand, switching between the two is a breeze.  | |

Posted: 9/14/2009 5:49:20 AM | I looked up the definition for ambidextrous as I'm left-handed yet I do things with my right hand as well such as using a mouse. It says that ambidextrous means using both hands equally. I'm not really sure if I use both hands equally or not.
I've tried using the mouse with my left-hand and I couldn't do it. | |

Do try to keep up...we are discussing hands, not wrist-power and overall arm-longevity.
OP, I'm right handed for writing, painting, drawing, and anything that requires complete dexterity and finer detail...but for opening jars, carrying things, and for muscle? I always use my left hand. So I'm sure it's not that uncommon, what you described in your O-post. | |

Posted: 9/14/2009 1:47:27 PM | Leftie here and I bite my nails too. But I do both hands. Can't stand to have nails poking out!
Only time I ever feel wierd for being a leftie is when using certain cutting tools - they're backwards for me! | |

Posted: 9/14/2009 3:39:04 PM | | I don't favor either hand. I once made an effort to have a primary hand, but kept forgetting which hand I'd assigned the task of being the number one hand. Also, the other hand often felt left out. In a way, it was right. | |

I noticed your right bicep is a little bigger than the left ???  *rubs chin* hmmm?
I happen to be ambidextrous left or right makes no difference to me . | |

The primary tool, I find to be most difficult to use as a lefty ....... The common kitchen hand held can opener. Second would be scissors.
As for thinking or feeling I am different, no...... It's fun to mess rightys up in self defense class and other places.
hehehehehe

Posted: 9/14/2009 5:29:21 PM | | Maybe all u lefties with trouble handling certain instruments need one of those shops that Ned Flanders from the Simpsons opened up....What was it called? The Left-o-porium? LOl. I wonder if a shop like that would actually survive or flop.. | |

PS - Sorry about your injury | |

Posted: 9/14/2009 8:15:02 PM | I'm a right handed person, but it seems that most of my life I have been surrounded by lefties. Both of my children are lefties....as was their father (my first husband). My second husband was a leftie too.
Each one of them is unique and not alike in any way except that they favor their left hand.
Anti-normal? What's normal anyway? | |
