Left Handed People....talk!

I'm a lefty. My oven mitts are from Ikea, and the same thickness on both side. Though to be honest I just use a folded up kitchen towel most of the time

I have a smooth edge can opener like this:

It's either not hand specific, or else I just never noticed. My biggest gripe is with scissors, always! Finding good left-handed scissors is such a pain.

Lefties are the Devil...... Joking. I never actually thought about the difficulties in day today tasks I take for granted.

check a restaurant store for good mitts and can openers. I'm a lefty too. For the most part I don't have any issues with finding things. I work in the food industry, so I'm use to the issues with right handed gadgets.

I eat and write left handed but do everything else righthanded. It confuses those around me

same here, I was taught to do everything righty because I was the only lefty in my classes growing up.

DITTO

Only eat and drink with my left hand.

I cut with scissors and use a butter knife, steak knife with my RIGHT hand.

I am a lefty. But my dad didn't want me to be, so everything he taught me, batting, throwing, catching, bowling, etc. was from a right-handed perspective. So I do alot of things right-handed, alot of things left-handed, and alot I can do with either. As far as scissors go, I've tried to use left-handed scissors but I can't, it seems odd. I was taught at school to use right-handed scissors with my left-hand because there were no left-handed ones available. But, I don't mind, it's who I am. I like being able to use both.

I am am ambidextrous. I think this is part of the reason I don't write left handed. I don't think it was that my mother didn't want me to be left handed, I think she just didn't realize i was ambidextrous until I was older. I write right handed because I never practiced left. I never practiced left because my mom thought I picked up the pencil in the wrong hand and would correct me. I eat left handed, I write right, i use the computer mouse left handed, I throw right, I brush my teeth with both. Figure this one out lol. I have oven mitts that can be used on either hand with equal thickness. Due to previous injuries to my left wrist, I pick up heavier things in my right hand but when something needs concentration or detail I usually use my left hand. I have to sit at a computer when I interview people at work and a few clients have noticed how fast I type. Well, part of that is because i can type in numbers and such with my right hand while mousing through with my left. Comes in handy for efficiency

I'm a lefty, been one all my life. Both my 2 girls turned out to be lefties too! My oven mitts are the same on both sides so I have no problems getting food out of the oven. For a can opener, we have an electric one so that's no problem either. I think someone should open a chain of Leftoriums like there is in The Simpsons.

Tin openers! Bane of my life.
At my university there are seats with the little pull up table things for you to write on, but they're only on the right side so you have to write so awkwardly as a left hander when using them -_-

I use both hands depending on what I'm doing, My Grand daugter is a lefty lucky for her there are scholarships for lefties

I eat and write left handed but do everything else righthanded. It confuses those around me

Ditto!
