I can't masturbate with my left so I guess I perfer my right

I'm right handed And miserable at everything with my left, although I treid training myself to become ampidexterous and failed

First thanks to TMW for posting this. I'd never given it any thought before. The results are... intriguing.

Left hand:
writing,
typing (my left hand hits 3/4 of the keys - though I've been a software engineer for decades I was never taught to type),
painting with a brush (painting a wall/ceiling that is, I don't do "art"),
using a wallpaper steamer (wallpaper stripper in right hand - but see below)

Ambi:
all sports requiring a racquet (tennis, squash, badminton),
scraping ice from my car windscreen,
painting with a roller,
lifting a beer glass,
computer mouse - left handed for shoot-em-up games, right handed for work/typing.

Right:
all sports requiring a bat/stick (cricket, baseball, golf),
Using a wallpaper scrapper (with wallpaper steamer in left hand - which is why I currently have 4 sutures in my left hand - ouch!),
drinking coffee/tea/from a mug,
eating hand food (sandwiches, chocolate bars, apples).

I am right handed but when I play football prefer to kick with my left foot.

Right hand for most things, but I masturbate left-handed because my right hand is using the mouse.

Entirely ambidextrous. Fractured my right wrist in a bad way numerous times as a child, and so I was forced to know how to use both. Now I alternate just to keep the skill, it can be useful. Also it's a cool trick to write the same thing at the same time twice.

left handed for everything apart from:
PC (righthanded mouse, saves having to move it all the time)
eating (as above, and you don't make a scene)

I have been known to play tennis ambidextrous however, as it gives you that little extra reach.

Right handed only. The left is only there for balance.

Ambi- "lifting a beer glass" .. interesting haha. I find that my latin class has 9 out of 14 students left handed including myself, which is rare being that lefties are usually the minority. I write pretty well with my right hand too but prefer I the left

SpeakerToAliens.

You and I are what is called multidextrous.

Meaning you can do some things with one hand, some things with the other, and some with both.

Not equally proficient in EVERYTHING with both, so not ambi, but also not unidextrous

personally i write and eat with my left hand but my strong arm and anything else is done on the right, so driving punching swinging a bat or racket or sword or lifting something heavy etc

@Thucydides - I'd only heard the word "Ambidetrous" before. "Multidextrous" and "Unidextrous" are new to me, so thanks for that.

I'm right-handed but left-footed. I eat like a European so I hold my fork in my left hand. Opposite of pi r round.

Swing bats with left. Write with right. My right half is the stronger one.

I prefer using the left hand to get the "job" done so that I keep the right one free for the mouse.

hahahah

Swing bats with left. Write with right. My right half is the stronger one.

Sinister

Swing bats with left. Write with right. My right half is the stronger one.

Oh my. I've refreshed this page twice since 3:54 and I don't remember even coming back here.

left handed, i'm better with most things with my left. I think my right hand is stronger, but lacks in dexterity.

FYI about 1 in 10 of the population are left handed, but 1 in 4 of Astronauts are. (if my rumours are to be believed) i wonders what the ratio here will be...

I'm right handed, but I'd cut off my right arm to be ambidextrous!

I'm very interested in that one as well Orathaic. Perhaps we should start a poll?

i would say i was left handed if asked on like a poll or something since that's what i write with. and that's normally what people use to ID you. but my right arm and hand are stronger, so idk.

Ambi, I do everything with both

Right with my left, and eat left handed ( knife in my left hand, weird i know), but do all sport and anything related to strength with my right.
