Left handed here. I've also heard lefties are more emotional and better in math.:drinker:

I considered myself a lefty even though I'm really mixed dominant. I write and eat with my left hand, but I play guitar and sports right-handed.

Oh and I do everything with my left hand. In sports that involve rackets I can use both hands though.
My boyfriend is only left handed when he writes! Everything else he's right handed! I call him not a true lefty

I am left handed and use my left hand for pretty much everything. I always like how when someone is trying to show you how to do something, they can't figure out how to do it because you are left handed.

Lefty! Both of my parents are righty's, grandparents were righty's so I have no idea where I got it!
Bat left handed, but catch right.
Bowl left handed
Tennis left handed
Kick left footed
Artistically inclined in a crafty sort of way. I also crochet left handed, so I basically taught myself. One grandmother had to use her left hand after a stroke, so as part of her therapy she took up cross stitch lefty. So, I guess we taught that to eachother in a way.
Use lefty scissors in my right hand :huh:

It's nice to have someone post this! But you also failed to mention that unfortunately we have:
1- a shorter life expectancy
2 - and while we're also athletic, we are accident prone - due to the world being tooled for the right handed world.

Also of note, there's quite a few serial killers who were left handers - Jack the Ripper, the Boston Strangler and Jeffery Dalmer. My dad gave me a book about being left handed when I was a kid (he was born a leftie as well but the nuns beat that right outta him!

I'm 100% left handed. My right hand is like a spleen...entirely useless.

Two fellow lefties have mentioned guitar, and both play right-handed. I'd really love to learn to play someday, and have even considered getting myself a loaner or rental and a few lessons as a reward for continued dedication to health and fitness. The issue of whether to try to learn left or right handed is a stumbling block, and there are good arguments either way. Anyone care to chime in with their experiences? Much appreciated. :flowerforyou:

<--BOO-YAH!! Club Card Carrying Member Left here. ( See... see what I did right thar? )


"If the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body, then only left-handed people are in their right minds."

Southpaw!! My daughter is also a lefty and it appears her daughter will be as well!!

Look out righties!! We are multiplying!!

HeidiMightyRawr

I use my left-hand for everything but mousing. Makes working on a computer so much easier...mouse with my right while I'm writing with my left! Let's see a right handed person pull that off!

Haha that's what I thought! I use the mouse with my right hand, that just came naturally because I need my left hand free to write etc. Yet right handers still use the mouse with their right hand

This is the same logic I applied to using bats or racquets. Ex: badminton. I cannot throw/serve with my right hand to save my life, so I learnt to use the racquet with both hands, and would naturally throw with my left.

I am a lefty

I was a music major (creative), went to culinary school (creative), played tennis in college, love to swim, and decorate cakes (creative, too!!!)

I hate fitting a stereotype... LOL!!

Tanig32

I use my left hand for mostly everything, I love being left handed i had a boss once and she didnt want anyone working on her line who was left handed and if you were she would do her best to make your day hell why do people always hate on the leftys

lilscuder

I'm Left-handed and Proud of it ! However with that being said. I only use my left hand to eat and write. I do Everything else right handed. I am what you call very Ambidextrous. :laugh:

ShareeMorty

Left handed and very creative, I do a few things with my right hand though. Have to disagree on the maths theory though.

I am left handed but can only use my mouse with my right hand

I'm the same way! I use my track pad on my lap top left handed, but I can't use a normal mouse left handed.

LaMujerMasBonitaDelMundo

I'm ambidextrous & can move mouse, write & eat with both hands however I use my left hand more especially when brushing teeth, scrubbing the floor, cleaning & when I punch. Not to mention that my entire left arm including hands are stronger & can lift 5lbs. more than my right arm.

One coincidence is that I'm good at drawing & am a graphic designer. I consider myself a creative one :bigsmile:

jesterx888

I bat, golf and throw a frisbee right handed. Everything else I do lefty
