Ambidextrous.
I can change which side of my brain is dominant.

My left hand's more coordinated, but my right's stronger. I write with my left, so I guess I'm left handed.

Righty here. My left hand is good for typing and playing video games, and not much else.

I think I'm ambidextrous. Apparently when I was little I used to pick up the pen in my left hand but my parents say they made me use my right instead, so most of the time now I do use my right hand - but often if I am already holding something in my right hand, eg a sandwich or telephone handset, I will grab a pen with my left hand if I need to write something, and only notice I have done it afterwards.

Also if I am depressed I find writing for a while with my left hand makes me feel better (! !!)

Maybe I should practise with my left hand more as it was probably my natural hand to write with before my parents interfered.

I'm right handed as well. I believe that 1 in 9 people is a leftie, so it looks like there's a disproportionate number of lefties here. :o

I'm a right hander. I can't really do anything with my left hand, I tried many times. It would be cool to be able to do things with my right and left hand.

Methinks that's 'cause the right hemisphere is an emo.

I write with my right hand, but give obscene gestures with both. ;)

I’m right handed but quite recently mom told me that when I was a toddler, I showed signs that I’d be most likely left handed in the future. She was not very anxious of it though which is strange for me given that she has an aversion for behaviors out of the norm - but here even she realized any attempts to make me right handed would be fruitless and simply harmful. Her fears weren’t confirmed though as I am a right handed person now.

Wow, old thread!

I write with my right hand
Use scissors with my left
And I'm ambidextrous with cutlery
