I can't write left-handed anymore, I don't think.
I haven't tried in years.
I haven't tried in years.
When I was growing up in elementary school, I would write with my right hand, erase, and then write with my left hand.
They labeled me 'confused' and trained me to be right-handed so I would fit in with the majority.
I have always been left-footed. Of course, I learned to bowl right-handed. Watching the last stutter-step always made my friends laugh.
Today, if I am learning to do something new, whichever hand I train with, works just fine.
<--notice he is left-handed.

Both The Princess and I are left handed. We point out when we notice people in videos are lefties.

I can write with both, at the same time, had to prove it the other day. I need to do that more often to make it easier when called out on it! I have to concentrate when writing two different words at the same time, except my first and last names!
I write left-handed. I bat left handed, but my Dad, an avid golfer, told me early on that if I wanted his used golf clubs, I needed to learn to golf right handed... so I did.

I shoot right handed because that was how the Navy taught me and I wanted more options for purchasing funs.

Kinda depends on what I am doing. Mostly right, but the pool guys freak when I shoot left handed.
Right side everything is dominant. Sadly, my right eye is near blind, so I have to shoot using my left, which is surprisingly HARD.
Just looked at the poll results so far, looks like the right is losing, lol!! Who will get 81million votes??
Right-side Dominant, but the Left is being reformed nicely. (for Once..

WHAT ABOUT THE NON-DEXTROUS FOLKS AMONG US WHO CAN'T DO SH!T WITH EITHER HAND?! HUH? DID YOU CONSIDER US? NOOOOO!
Seriously, I write with my right hand, play tennis left-handed, bat right-handed, eat with my left hand, shoot handgun right handed, shoot long-gun left handed, throw darts right handed, drink with either hand...and so it goes. I'm one confused s.o.b.

I'm mostly right handed. Left Eye dominant. Can do a few things lefty
I was left handed. An evil teacher made me switch because “it’s a right handed world.” Messed me up big time (think vertigo). I’m using that as my excuse today 
If you’re left eye dominant, you should shoot as a lefty.
Probably so. But it just feels strange to even try. I do try and force it with a pistol
I knew it, that's your deal!!I was left handed. An evil teacher made me switch because “it’s a right handed world.” Messed me up big time (think vertigo). I’m using that as my excuse today
Can anyone write with their TOES??

I typically shoot rifles left handed and pistols right handed but can switch to either hand. I do practice shooting with both hands, with both rifles and pistols. Left eye dominate, due to a botched eye surgery.

On the farm I did a lot of things with my left hand, but use my right hand more, never tried to write with left hand.
I chop wood & milk cows with both hand, so it not one or the other.
I heard a story about a boy who was right hand & his Father was lift hand. The father had bow & arrows, Goff cubs & many other lift hand tools. Not wanting to buy more stuff for a right hand son, he taught him to use left hand tools, when dad was not around the boy, being a boy, switched to right & learned to use both hand Technik.

I can transcribe Biden or Fetterman that way. Not too legible....
Never tried, lol!

I guess I'm ambidextrous when it comes to typing since I use both hands.
I'm left handed as it relates to writing.
I otherwise use both, depending on finesse. E.g. I do power things right handed but if it requires finesse, I'm left handed.

I'm left eye dominant, rifle I shoot right handed with optics, pistol I shoot right handed using my left eye to aim.
