Are you right or left brained?

Well I'm left handed so I guess I'm left brained I have been told that I have a fun personality and I love to be creative and draw I come from a family of singers so I sing a little and I knit and I love to chat and have fun I also like to meet people and I just, love life and I hope to become a special effects artist someday soon I want be mostly a creature effects artist for film.

Ok this makes me a left brain. I have no creativity, I cannot match colors either. So I have a horrible wardrobe. But my daughter must have the right brain and a leftie too. She is a leftie but loves to draw and paint.

Well I have never been very creative even though I wished I could be. I have always been very logical and thinking but I am not a maths person. I do respond with feelings and I am very sensitive to other people's feeling. This combined with my logic and thinking means I am good at helping people get through emotional traumas. I think I should have gone into counseling. I thought of doing social work once but I was talked out of it when I was young by my mother who believed that I would not cope with the emotional trauma that such work can cause in the practitioner. I will never know now as I am not going back to find out. I seem to have spent my life looking back and wondering if I made the wrong choices. I just do not know. Still someone once said there are no wrong choices just life experiences to learn from. I like that idea.

Hi Sheepie, I think I have a right brain as I am very creative and have lots of imagination but to be honest I don't think its mattter what side of your brain you have because we all different in what we do. Tamara

My understanding is that the degree of right/left brain dominance has most to do with the make-up of the corpus callosum, the organ which connects the hemispheres. In women this tends to be thicker and more complex, and the nett result is that most women can rightfully claim to be ambi-brained. In men the corpus tends to be thinner and less complex, which for some reason restricts them to mostly left-brain dominance. This is also backed up by the results of the MBTI personality instrument, which indicates that men are more likely to be Thinking types (logical, rational) and more women Feeling types (basing decisions on a sense of what is morally/socially right rather than logic and rationality). It should be emphasised that this is talking in generalities, and there are many exceptions: a lot of women have less complex corpi than their gender as a whole and tend to left-brain dominance, and some men have much more complex corpi than their gender and tend to be ambi-brained. There are many exercises in the meditation and concentration areas that can teach us to access our right-brain functions more easily. Lash

Hai lynZ!!!! I had fun today lol. Umm, I'm right brained. But I'm partial for the left, so could I be both-brained? I'm a bit confused, but I am towards both. And yes, you are really nutty

Isn't it that if you are left handed, you are right brained? And right handed for left brained? So I think I'm left brained. What do you think?

Since I am right-handed, so I am left-brained. However, I don't think my math is good. I think I am creative. I love China

I'm right-brained, too. I found out recently, though, that I'm a little left-brained, too. That made me feel good, intelligent and kind of whole. I'm sorry I can't remember the program. If I find it, I'll post it. I'm happy to be right brained! It makes life interesting, if not profitable.

I am bi. I use both sides of my brain. I am creative, maybe not so witty, but still a big goofball. But, the logical side of my brain is always working, as well. I get an idea in my head for a piece of jewelry but can't figure out exactly how to make it work.....left side steps up, and kicks right side's butt. Right side says, "Oh, Yeah, ok, I get it now. Thanks, buddy. " While my thoughts and my words don't play well together, my left brain and right brain play very well together.

I think I am left. i wish I was more creative. but alas, nope! so it must be left.
