Who's left-handed?
Hi,
I've missed left-handers day by about a week, despite trying to make it a note in my calendar. Maybe I put it on the right by mistake.
Currently the best-known leftie might be Barack Obama.

So who's a left-handed IISer? (I hope this doesn't get merged with jjj's poll on Stupid Questions  )
Cheers

I voted mostly RHed... I'm right handed for all single handed tasks, but I'm left handed for double handed tasks (like axe, bat, etc).

I am mostly ambidextrous, use both hand nearly equaly,I broke my wrists so many times as a kid that I got to learn to use both equally.
the only thing I cannot do is write with my left,but then I am not much good with the right either  hahaha

I think you must be 'multidextrous' with all those.

Hi All,
RH, With all priority tasks. But, my left arm strength is greater and I punch harder with my left.
I used to prefer to jump (athletics) with my right leg but my coach pointed out I achieved better results with my left leg. It was an effort to re-learn jumping off my left foot.
Cheers

I'm left-handed and left-footed. I wear my watch on my right hand. I love it when people use my computer and go looking for the mouse. My wife says that when I dance I have two left feet and you know what, I'm proud of it!! It's common knowledge too that we lefties are the only ones in our right mind...
Cheers,
Mario
PS MY eldest son is also left-handed so lefties account for 50% of our household!

While I don't right left handed I use the computer mouse left handed, use scissors and knives left handed and I am definitely left footed. So I ticked ambidextrous.

Reading all those post a clear pattern is emerging and it is becoming clear to me that astro people are well versed in the use of knives, firearms, projectile handling, etc... maybe you can drop by my place and take care of my pigeon population control for me?
