Right-handed, left-handed, or ambidextrous?

I'm right-handed, but I wish I was ambidextrous. My dad is left-handed. I didn't know that until recently! I only noticed it because his mouse was on the left side of his monitor! (I'm very observant, eh?) :o
A while ago my friend was practing writing with her left hand, too!

What are you?
Is anyone in your family right-handed? left-handed? ambidextrous?
Can you write or draw well with the opposite hand?
If you're left-handed, do you have trouble finding things like left-handed scissors in stores?
Do you like cupcakes?
etc.

My whole family is right-handed, except for me. I am primarily left-handed, but I'm nearly ambidexterous. I can write, mouse, and shoot with both hands about equally well, although shooting is hampered somewhat by having a dominant eye.

As to finding left-handed items, mostly it's all special order, especially with regard to sporting supplies, especially my shooting stuff.

Is anyone in your family right-handed? left-handed? ambidextrous? I am left-handed, but most of my family is right-handed :)
Can you write or draw well with the opposite hand? I think that I can right well with my right hand...
If you're left-handed, do you have trouble finding things like left-handed scissors in stores? Scissors for me aren't that hard to use. I rarely use them, so I guess that is a no.
Do you like cupcakes? Yes but depends on the kind...

I'm right handed and I am terrible at doing anything at all with my left hand.
My entire family is actually right handed...pretty boring.

Saxon 10-25-2007 12:49 AM

I, myself am predominantly right handed. Although I can do most things with my left hand. Albeit a pain as I can't do anything else whilst, say, typing only with my left hand or writing. It takes full concentration.
All of my family are right handed, too. Well, my close family.
(I can write/type/eat with my feet does that count? <__< )

Komitadjie 10-25-2007 12:53 AM

Now THAT is awesome, Saxon. I wish *I* could do that.

helaia 10-25-2007 12:56 AM

definitely right handed... but I do some things with my left hand, like hold a hockey stick.

Saxon 10-25-2007 12:57 AM

It helps to be freakishly flexible and have oddly dextrous toes!
I'm sure some mad Swedish scientist somewhere could genetically modify you so you can.
XDD

I USED to be a lefty. my mom said my kindergarten teacher made me write with my right hand. That kinda explains the handwriting when I attempt to write with my left hand. But it doesnt feel right. It'll come out decent but it feels really uncomfertable. Ya know? Wait. Is that even possible? O-O I just confused myself. >< Help? Is that possible?

clattering shutters 10-25-2007 01:14 AM

I'm ambidextrous.
I used to be a righty. And I still use my right hand predominately; when I'm writing things or drawing. But because I've been playing the drums and flute for so long, it really built up the strength of my left hand and now I'm equally good at writing with both hands. I'm not so good at drawing with my left hand yet, though.
I just noticed that I mostly use my left hand to type with, actually.

I'm right handed and my best friend is a lefty. I've tried to write with my left hand but it always looks really bad and unreadable..

Foxxi 10-25-2007 01:25 AM

I'm a lefty.But I do almost everyything except writeing woth my right hand.Strange.xD

Divine_lil_brat 10-25-2007 01:26 AM

Sadly enough my whole family as well as myself are right handed. Kinda sad to think no in my family is a lefty. lol.

GarretValentine 10-25-2007 01:27 AM

I am a righty. I wish I was ambidextrous also.
I tried several times to write my name with my left hand,
but most of the time, it turns out looking like
1 year old writing. teehee.
I guess I will have to practice more if I really want to be ambidextrous.
However, there are a few things I do better with my left hand.
Like.. drying my hair, drinking water and etc.
Little things, but it still counts... right? ^-^;

Prozac Bunny 10-25-2007 01:30 AM

D: In a waaaay I'm ambidexterous. I can draw with my right and erase with my left XDD

Majinkoz 10-25-2007 01:33 AM

I'm definitely right handed...I couldn't write with my left hand to save my life...

Nesseh 10-25-2007 01:34 AM

I'm just like every other person out there. ;w; I'm right handed. I wish I could be both left and right handed though! ;'D

clock 10-25-2007 01:36 AM


I love cupcakes. ;w;

I do everything right-handed, excpet I eat
finger foods with my left hand. :]
Everyone in my family is right-handed too.

Gradient Otter 10-25-2007 01:36 AM

Right handed. Though... I'm an artist, so I wish I could become ambidextrous. I wonder if you can draw with both hands if you're ambidextrous? o.o That might be useful...

phrank 10-25-2007 01:38 AM

I'm right handed.
But I can also do a whole lot of things with my feet.
It's pretty cool.

Aeola 10-25-2007 02:01 AM

Im right handed, I try to write with my left but it doesnt work as good.

`Aine Chievious 10-25-2007 02:07 AM

I'm ambidextrous, but slightly more steady with my right hand.

I think part of the reason why is because when I was little, as in 3rd grade type little, I was doing a writing assignment. My right hand was getting tired, so I switched the pencil to my left hand, and continued to write. A kid next to me saw, and start shouting to the teacher that I was using both hands to write. I got embarrassed, and used my right hand again.

So, I think after that incident I didn't use my left hand as much, so my right hand became more steady. However, I can do a lot of things with my left hand, as well, and I try to use it more nowadays. XD

ToriKat 10-25-2007 02:18 AM

  • I'm right handed, but I've been training myself to be ambidextrous. My left hand's been getting stronger. :D

    My whole family is right handed. *wants to be unique* D:

Bellazure 10-25-2007 02:45 AM

I'm right handed.
A while ago I tried writing with my left hand, and it looked like my 5 year old sister's writing

MasterChiefrei 10-25-2007 03:08 AM

I'm write handed and I wish I could write with both hands. ><; I can throw with both hands but other than that I can't do much more. T^T
My mom is ambidextorious and my brother is left handed.
I've tried to use my left hand to draw, write, etc. but it looks really bad and can't even be read. XD
I love cupcakes! <3 XD
