Have any of you people out there thought there could be a phenomenon that exists like this.Many people would not go beyond thinking about being left handed or right handed.It means that you do one task which requires specialization with one hand efficiently and the other task which requires specialization with the other hand.
Ambidexterity or the ability to do a particular task which requires a specialized skill or talent equally with both hands
is one form of mixed handedness.
(1-2)% of the people in the world are mixed handed without even realizing it and many of them are also looked at by other people as clumsy and sometimes even with envy.
A more appropriate term for mixed handedness is known as cross dominance.Quite a amny people with this condition of cross dominance have a tendency of being dyslexic.
