I voted for right, seeing as I feel technically right-handed now. I used to be left-handed when I started Primary School but I was actually forced to write with my right hand. From then, I was scared shitless of being seen writing with my left hand for some reason. I can't even remember or UNDERSTAND the logic behind making me write right-handed but now I can barely write with my left hand (I still can but don't feel the need to). I don't consider myself ambidextrous for this reason, despite doing a lot of things with my left hand. Perhaps this is bizarre reasoning but to me, I write right-handed, therefore I am right-handed.

I make sense, you just have to sift through it.
Yeah, they did start to try and force me to use my right hand as a kid (I use to have no preference, so I'm told) because 'I couldn't make up my mind' - luckly, my mum told to stop it, and so I was able to pick leftie as my main hand.

I do find this kind of unthinking narrow mindedness annoying - right handed everything, aside from in left handed stores, will are rare to say the least. Because is 'Right' to be Right-handed. Although oddly humans are the only primates that seem to have such a massive unbalance. I believe apes and chimps are 50/50 in terms of left/right handedness

Oh yah, I also snowboard with a regular stance, even though they say left-handed people usually prefer the goofy footing because they tend to lead with their right foot... maybe the Navy training that makes me lead with my left foot :D

...so does it feel like a stranger if you do it with the wrong hand?

my best male friend at school used to tell me he'd sit on his left hand til it went numb so he could pretend it was somebody else, shake things up a bit so to speak!

by the way i'm incredibly sorry if that offends anyone! but it made me chuckle ho ho ho...
Why would it offend anyone? lol. We're all open and secure enough to talk about masturbation(at least i hope all of us are)so i don't think you would "offend" anyone.
Surprisingly yes, yes it does feel "strange" which is why i dont use that hand. I feel at home with old lefty, i can hear my right hand crying everytime i jack off lol.
ah i just slipped in the old apology just in case it gets me in trouble! just covering my ass!

I'm right-handed. Although I have varying degrees of use in my left hand. I can't write with it, but I have learned how to do ohter things I can do with my right hand (such as shoot a bow/arrow & firearms).

Ambidextrous, sept in writing. I have crappy penmanship either way, but it's worse when I try and write left handed.

then you are NOT ambidextrous, you are right handed sorry to say

i can do a lot of stuff with my left hand too and so can everyone. it's stupid everyone thinks cause they can type, have a wank, use a controller with both hands that they are a ambidextrous cause they aren't

if you can't write with both hands, you are NOT ambidextrous

Right handed, although I play hockey left-handed for some reason. I am good with my left for just about everything but I write much better with my right.

I do anything that requires dexterity with my left hand, (drawing, writing, using a fork, etc...) anything strength related is done with my right. I take a right handed stance when fighting and in sports. the thing is, I can't do the strength related things with my left.

This poll ignores the ambisinister division of the population! Unlike the ambidexterous who are equally skilled in both hands we the ambisinister are equally worthless in both hands.

What do you have against the ambisinister?

[EDIT] Wow. I just Googled it. There is actually such a thing as ambisinister. I'm right-handed, I thought I was just making it up. That's kind of a surprise, I would have thought that, even if you weren't particularly dexterous with either, one hand would come out sort of superior rather than both coming out equally mediocre.

My apologise to any ambisinister who may have taken my post as mocking.

Doesn't anyone here watch Scrubs or The Dave Chapelle Show? They've both used that stranger line, figured people had tried it out years ago :p

For the record, I really don't think ya'all are right when you say "writing" is the determining factor of which hand is your dominant hand... writing is fairly insignificant in the course of the day, unless you're a journalist or an author...

80% of serial killers are supposed to be left handed.
Only 20% of the population are left handed.
I'm left handed.

85% of all stats are made up....you all hope...
