I'm a skeptic.
Why actually are people trained to limit their handedness to the right and consider left handed people different kinds of ways?

@helenS That's a mythical carry over from the days of the split point fountain pens, the teachers using a warning about developing a "contortion wrist joint", and kids who's parents bought cheap pens or were too dumb to wipe off excess ink accumulating at the ball.
I never had a problem but I've been sufficiently scruitinized and admonished to have ample recognition about anything said on the subject.
It's a scholastic mystery by now. Science knows all about agreeable communicating reasoning brain and cautiously mute creative brain hemispheres.
I'm just pretending to be dumb about this.

@SteelHands Thank you – it was what they said why I had to learn to write with my "wrong" hand.

Not fully ambidextrous. There are certain tasks I do better with left and others with my right.
✍ I write with my RH and use the computer mouse with LH.
Opening jars - always LH
🔪 Knife - LH/RH
🏀 Shoot basketball with either hand, but dribble with RH
🏓 Table tennis - RH/LH
🎱 Billiards - RH
Hammer 🔨 - RH while screwdriver 🪛 LH
How about you?

On the whole, I'm ambidexterous, but there are some things I'm either exclusively right-handed for and some things I'm exclusively left-handed for.

I generally write with my left hand and lead with my right in other areas. I do not really have a dominant hand.
Right-handed, although there are some things I can do better with my left (ex. change gears in a car).

born left handed- I write and eat with my left hand but i do everything else with my right...

Feel sorry for those eons back that were left at birth but forced too change in school! Shows humanity’s inability to accept differences!!

Right, but in baseball, both

Both in some ways. Was right handed till I broke my right arm and I had to learn left handed.
The hardest thing was learning to do was relearning to wipe my ass with my left hand. First time I fell off the toilet

This poll seems to indicate more lefties than the general population. I’m one and like it. I play golf right handed exclusively, bat both, eat right handed (slapped into doing it by mother as a child).
