I'm righthanded

I'm a lefty.

YAY

It's a strange thing, but my left-handed mother always keeps the mouse on the right side of her keyboard. If I use the computer while visiting my parents I always move it to the left side because I always use my left hand to operate the mouse for my own computer. But afterwards she always moves it back to the right side.

I'm nominally a leftie but I use my mouse right-handed. part of the reason for that is because I'm a better left-handed typist, so I save my left hand for typing when I fill out online forms, but my right hand can stay on the mouse, as I hate continually having to move my hands back and forth from the mouse to the keyboard and back, in filling out forms.

As a kid I used to swap hands to draw and write with until one particular primary school teacher insisted that as I could use my right hand I should only use my right hand. I was never any good at sports or playing musical instruments 'cos no matter which way I hold bats, racquets, guitars etc. it always feels as though I'm holding them in the wrong hands. Until recently I used my PC mouse in my right hand, I also wrote and drew with it too, but I began suffering from RSI, so I swapped hands and now I used my left hand for my mouse and for drawing. I hardly ever write any more but when I last tried my writing with my right hand had deteriorated to virtual the same lack of use level as my left hand.

a benefit of ambidexterity is being able to give the other side a rest when needed.

<-- Left-handed
It's very useful on the computer, cause I can eat and drink comfortably while holding the mouse.
I used to try shake hands with my left hand as a kid.

I'm right handed, being ambidexterus would be cool though. I'd say I have good use of my left hand though.

Technically I'm ambi, but I prefer to call it, "equally clumsy with either hand".

Hey! I'm Ambi-aspie! ...Or is it "Aspie-ambi" ?

Right handed mostly, but I've been teaching myself to use my left hand since I got my right hand in this brace. It's not terrible, but I've got a long way to go before I can claim ambidexterity.
