left handed but right armed....one of my friends is like that too. also my right eye is stronger than my left eye if that even matters.
Ah, a topic of great interest to me (as it is to most left handers). I'm left handed, whether it be writing, using a mouse, whatever. I have reasonable use of my right foot playing football (soccer), purely due to practice. I play golf left handed (16 handicap), but I can hack round to about a 30 handicap right handed. I'd imagine that I'd be a switch hitter if I played baseball, but with more power from the left side. A good book that I would thoroughly recommend on this subject is Right Hand, Left Hand (link to Amazon) which looks at handedness, and all kinds of asymmetry in nature. Very interesting.
I am right handed but I write (the way I hold a pen/pencil, the angle of my wrist, etc.) like a lefty. Who knows why, I just have always had people stop by me if i am writing and wonder why I am left-handed but writing with my right.
I write right handed but I bat and golf left handed, don't know why I do. But that could explain why I suck at both.
I am left-handed all the way. I like being somewhat unique, but it absolutely sucked in college, trying to take certain finals at desks clearly made for only righties. There are lots of those little things out there made without a lefty in mind.
Lefty, always been a lefty. Write, hold a fork, throw, shoot, bat, catch, dribble, golf, etc. all left-handed. When I was a kid my folks tried to get me to use my right hand instead, but I kept switching back, and I guess they didn't force the issue too much. Desks, spiral notebooks, the left-to-right system of writing all sucked when I was younger. Now I kinda like being different from 80%+ of the population.
I always thought about an ambidextrous pitcher in baseball. One that could pitch as good in one hand as the other. Then, when he would go against a switch hitter, the two would go on for hours, switching. I guess they would eventually have to stop somewhere...but that would be strange.
Hmmmmmmmm - Mr. Meowgi is left handed, i'm getting increasingly close to figuring out who you are (I know i'm very close now) ... Oh btw i'm Am*bra*dextrius - I really am actually, which makes me super cool.
I remember back in '94 in and Oilers preseason game against the cowboys, Bucky Richardson threw a pass for a completion with his left arm.
There is a kid doing that exact thing (in college I think) he even has a special glove so he can switch back and forth. I only saw a few highlights of him pitching, but it was pretty cool.
If you are right-handed, you are manu diexter, which is where we get the word "dextrous." If you are left-handed, you are manu sinister (sin-es-stair), which is where we get the word "sinister." If you can use both hands equally well, you are ambidexter, which is where we get the word "ambidextrous." In ancient times mothers forced their children to be right handed because, if the child persisted in using his or her left, the child was deemed "evil" and summarily dispatched (and I don't mean exiled).
Dexter is pronounced "dex-stair." There is one more. If you are manu ginobili you can play basketball with flair. From this we get the word "Gee, what ability."
