• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Are you right-handed, left-handed, or ambidextrous?

Oh, I'd also like to say, despite being left handed I almost never smudge while writing. :D

I even use smudgy pens. Maybe because I used to smudge so much that I adapted the way I write to not smudge, with the cost of a more achy wrist.

Oh yeah and I use scissors with my right.

Mainly because there are hardly any left handed ones in my school and you know when you use your wrong hand with scissors? They only scrape the paper and don't cut it. The sound that makes is like nails on a chalk board to me. Even thinking about that noise has made me flinch so much that I would've finished writing this post ten seconds ago.

As far as I know, lefties have an advantage in situations where people are expected to be right-handed. In a game like cricket, a leftie hits the ball in a completely different direction than a right-handed person would, giving them an advantage.
This is especially true in fencing. You think you're on a roll, and then a lefty comes along and totally screws you up. :0
 
I write, draw, and use a writing tool in some way with my left hand. I do everything else with my right.... Throw, hit, slash, use a stylus, use a mouse, etc.

Which sucks dick, because I hate writing left handed but my right hand locks up and I have to focus to relax it so I end up writing poorly anyway.
 
I'm ambidextrous. >:D

D: I wanna be ambidextrous... It sounds so fun... Kidnappers can be tying up my right hand and I can be all like, "HA!" and whip out a gun with my left. That's probably not going to happen though.

I'm a righty. I have tried doing stuff with my left hand, but most turn out to be fail.
 
Ambidextrous :3
I do all right-hand designed things with my right (mouse, wiimote, can-opener), and just about everything else with my left. It's fun to freak people out in baseball when you hit with your right, strike, then switch hands.
 
I'm right handed. I always wonder why people are more likely to be right handed then left. Does anyone here know?
 
Oh look, another boring rightie. Yes, I am almost exclusively right handed. Except when playing a guitar or typing. It's sort of odd that I can only play a guitar with my left when I'm very right handed most of the time. But my sister can do this too. Also, for typing, I use both hands.

Tried some other left handed stuff for a while, but failed. With my left hand, I have the ability to write like a five-year old having seizures. Isn't that greatiful?
 
Plus, I think brain-dominance is really interesting. Like how right-handed people tend to be better at mathematics, while lefties are more creative. And how, apparently, lefties are 39% more likely to be gay.

Pfft. I'm right-handed, gay, creative and not particularly good at maths. :D Guess I defy four - or three, depending on whether the creative and maths things count as one or two things... no wait, being right-handed doesn't count, does it...? Uh, oh well - likelihood things at once. Kinda. Well, not really, seeing as they're only... I dunno. Slight likelihoods that aren't true in all cases. Or something. But you know what I mean.

And I'm right-handed and can't barely use my left hand at all ;_; Everytime I do something with my right hand, that I could have done with my left hand, had I been more lefty, I feel bad about myself and my lefty :<

...then I try using my left hand and proceeds to fail.

... ;_;

Person 1: Hey, did you know men tend to be taller than women?
Person 2: NO NO I'M TALLER THAN LIKE THIS BOY I KNOW D: THIS MUST BE COMPLETELY WRONG

Please, guys. Please.
Don't do this

I dunno what I am. XD My dad says I'm ambidextrous, but it's not like I'm that equal with both, it's just... really random.

I write with my right hand, but my left hand can do it almost as neatly, it's just wobbly because I've been using my right hand twelve and a half years longer. I play most sport with my right hand when needed.

BUT I play guitar left-handedly, and I use the bow left-handedly. And there are probably more equally messed up stuff I've forgotten. I think my left hand has more strength, but my right hand is more stable or something because I've used it more.

Maybe I just picked up a pencil when I first started to write with my right hand, and it just never occurred to me to use the other one or something.
 
"Sarah... you're playing the guitar upside-down."
"Oh, I know."
"... Why don't you turn it the right way...?"
"MINDFUCK."

My Music teacher hated my guts. :B My guitar-playing was also shit. I didn't even pass the course.

I don't really like my right hand. If I didn't type so much I don't think I'd use it at all. xD
 
Ambidextrous :3

I love doing that during P.E.

Plus I type faster than anyone I know, and I didn't even bother with the finger positioning or anything.
 
Leftie.
But when I´m eating I eat like a rigth-handed, and my sister (who is rigth-handed) is eating like a left-handed...
 
I write/eat left-handed, and I feel my right-hand is stronger than the other (either because I always use it or it's from pressing the A button so much. xD) When I'm typing usually both of my hands are at use but my left hand seems to be typing more than my right-hand.
