Left-handed for writing.

Right-handed for everything else.

Right-handed with some left-handed tendencies.

I am cross dominant-
I use both hands equally well,
but for different tasks.

For writing and using a fork, it's my left.

For opening jars and using scissors, it's my right.

Extremely left handed here from a baby. Although I severely injured my right hand when I was 9 or 10, & didn't use it for years for anything (it was really weak). When I got into my late teens, it struck me that something bad could happen to my left, so I taught myself to use my right hand. I learned to write, eat, do some stuff, etc as long as it didn't require a lot of finesse. I can still use it, but because I am still slow & it's painstaking, I much prefer my left hand for most tasks. I voted lefty, but am somewhat ambidextrous since I developed right handed skills fairly late.

Mostly right handed, but I do a few things left handed, like bat in baseball.

I am right handed also and do the exact same with watches, first thing I did when I was a child was put it on my right wrist then was told that wasn't the way to do it and whoever I was with put it on my left wrist much to my digust. Thank goodness my mum got it and let me wear it on whatever wrist I wanted.

I'm right handed, and used to wear watches on my right wrist, but because of people commenting, I managed to train myself to get used to the watch on my left wrist.

Right-handed.

Seems that there's a disproportionate number of left-handed people, though...

I'm pretty much ambidextrous, but I'm a little cross-handed as well.
