I think I'm mostly left-handed though I can do some things ambidextrously caterpie;
I write with my left hand, I hold the DS stylus in my left hand, I hold my Wiimote in whatever hand I feel like (more often right than left), I use scissors in my right hand, I throw with my right hand, I use the mouse in my right hand only because it's default like that (I probably could alternate if I felt like it), I wear my watch on my right wrist, and in one-handed typing, I'm equally good with each hand.

I think I was ambidextrous but just got used to using certain hands for certain things. I haven't tried legitimately writing with my right hand since kindergarten, and back then I wrote equally well with both.

Left, although for things like sports I'm completely ambidextrous. This is most likely due to never having practiced any sport with a particular hand (or at all, for that reason).

Musical instruments are similar; bass is playable both ways although better left-handedly, and drums are a matter of how I'm feeling on a particular day. If left-handed saxophones existed I could probably play one of them.

I'm mostly right-handed, but I use my left hand to eat and stir food.

I use my right hand for everything. The only time I use my left hand is when my right one is busy. Awesome logic.

Wow, aren't we all weird.
The largest group is actually the same one I'm in, and I'm the only person I know IRL like that. I'm surprised there aren't more right-handed people here.

Mostly left but I can use right in some ways     - 3 (37.5%)

Right, but I can do things with the left as well.

Almost totally right. Obviously there's some things I can do with my left, but those can usually be done better with my right unless that's just not possible (like fretting a guitar with my left hand...can't be done with my right because my right is for picking/strumming)

I'm mainly right-handed, but I open jars and play baseball the lefty way. powerofone;
I do other small things with my left hand, too.

I'm right handed, can't write at all with my left hand.

Post by: Kalahari Inkantation on December 17, 2007, 12:56:58 PM
Oh, I can also write pretty well with my left hand. Better than most, if not, all of the righties I know. I'm sure that if I wrote with nothing but my left hand for a week I'd master it. powerofone;

Pretty much right handed... Can't write or throw at least.

Mostly right, use left in some ways.

And my feet are pretty dextrous, too.
