GeneRally International Forum

Well, I read that even 15% of all population is a left-hander people.

So... what about you, dear users? Are you left or right-hander?

Personally, I'm a right-hander but sometimes I'm trying to play billiards games (pool/snooker) also like a left-hander.

I am both-hander.

I'm a right-hander that can do some stuff with the left hand (just a few, actually)

Why can I choose only 1 option, I feel I'm being discriminated.

Is this forum full of ambidextrous people here? Since I am also able to do some stuffs better with left hand (for example opening a jar), but I still consider myself as a righthander.

Well, the decision about left/right-handing depends mainly about basic operations like writing, using knife/fork/spoon for eating etc.

I was actually joking as I'm a 'regular' right hander and have no doubt about that, but what you say is quote common I think, that there are some activities that we perform surprisingly well using our weaker hands. Opening a jar is one of such things that comes to my mind first in my case as well. I suppose that it's mainly strength vs precision thing, as muscles in weaker hands might be stronger because we don't develop their flexibility every day, and doing so to our 'better' hands might be stopping growth of their muscles, making them actually weaker in terms of measurable, physical force.

Another fun one is being right handed, but being left-eye dominant. I am right handed, but I do things like shooting left handed because my left eye is my dominant eye.

i use both but i am a right hander

Left-handed here... although I mostly use a mouse with my right hand...

Also a lefty here.

You know, lefty's are said to be more versatile, as the world is predominantly designed for righthanded people.
