I can do both, I am more right handed than left though when it comes to writing, still I can write with both hands. As far as using my hands for other tasks I find myself using the one that fits the job. Hammer and nails right handed, Unscrew a cap many times it has been my left because the right has lost alot of strength from the CPT syndrome. Same with screw drivers I can use either hand.

I am almost absolutly lefthanded. But I don´t know why, the only thing I do with my right hand (and can´t do it with the left one) is to blow my nose. I have thought many times about this over the years but I have no explanation.

That is probably because as a child that is how you were taught to blow your nose was with your right hand.. Its the only thing I an think of..

I am right handed all the way. When I was a kid I used to be left handed but i guess my mum didnt like that so she made sure I switched to right.. Now I'm trying to get my left hand back in the game.

If you keep practicing you will gain the left, thats all I did as I grew up, I worked with both when no one was around...lol Thing is it worked.. I know alot of children went through that, left handed "oh NO" Got to change that quick--so parents do, and they shouldn't. I did'nt with my children, they became who they were suppose to.

I used to be completely ambidextrous but then I nearly severed my left hand. While it healed & because of the damage my right hand became dominant.

Good Evening Youreyes4Today! I use both of my hands. Actually, my husband says he can tell if I am in a good mood or a bad mood by the hand that I am using! LOL Take care and have a super night!

i was naturally born a leftie but since i was the firstborn my father took it upon himself to teach me to do all things with my right hand. he said it doesn't look good on a girl. however, he forgot one thing. he forgot to teach me how to eat chips with my right hand. even up to know that would be the only give away that i was a leftie.

I am actually right handed. However, I have found that when I'm shooting pool or doing some other activities I am left handed. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm not ambidextrous if that's what you are thinking. i just perform some things with my left hand since it's more comfortable. Maybe I was just taught that way and it feels wierd to use my dominant hand.

Oh, nice! I wanna be ambidextrous also. I am right hand, but when I was in high school I have this seatmate who was left handed, so I tried to practice writing with my left hand. For a while, I was able to do it, but I didn't keep practicing so I probably forgot how to do it again.

I can use my right hand to 100% efficiency, and I'd say about 45% on my left. I write and do most things with my right, but I can also use my left pretty well when I need to.

I am right-handed. I can only write with my right hand. However, I do somewhat wish that I was left handed, or ambidextrous and be able to write both hands. I'm really sure why. It's just something that I've wanted for a while.
