Are you right or left handed? I am left handed, so is my husband and our youngest son (the twin), our other three children are right handed.... so we have a right handed twin and a left handed twin. I use my spoon with my left hand but use my fork in the left hand and my knife in my right hand.

They call me left-handed, but I only write and eat with my left hand. I do everything else - throw a ball, bowl, cut with scissors, etc. - with my right.

I pretty much do everything I do left handed except when I am on my computer I do everything I do on it with both hands but it takes me longger to do anything.

I am right handed. Everyone in my family is right handed except one of my brothers. I can sort of write with my left hand. I used to practice when I was in school. I can even write in cursive left handed, although not that well.

I used to attempt to write with my left hand too and I got pretty good. However, my right handed handwriting still looks better.

I'm right handed. All my family is right handed. My roomie is a south paw and so is her mother, but the males in her family are right handed.

I am left handed. I was actually right handed when I was little, but after I recovered from being deathly sick and in a coma I switched to my left hand. I have been using my left hand ever since. My husband and both of our kids are right handed. My parents and sister are right handed as well. And as far as I know I am the only lefty in my family. That's okay though. It makes me unique.

I am a right handed person but mom tells me that when I was a kid I am actually left handed, but you know in the old days that being left handed means you are abnormal, so my grandmother taught me how to use my right hand instead. Now I get confused a lot of times. I can eat with my left hand, sometimes my spoon is on my left, but I can not write with my left.

I am right handed. So also the members of our family! I think it is a matter of coincidence. Thanks!

I am left handed ,but write with my right hand,there are some things I do better with my left and others with my right.One of my daughters writes with her left hand and the rest of the family write with their right hand. It kind of makes sense for twins to be a mirror image where one is left and one is right ,I wonder if this applies to all twins ,but then how would this work with more then the twins say three or five. cheers.

Hi Anne, I'm right handed and noone in my family is left handed, I always use the knife with my right hand, and also my spoon, but I change the usage of the fork from time to time to fit my needs to take the food

I am mainly a right handed person. Although I play hockey lefty. I'm pretty sure that is it though. Maybe I do some other things lefty too.

I am right handed. My husband is prodominantly left-handed but very ambidexterous. He eats, writes and does anything requiring dexterity with his left, but plays sports and does anything requiring strength right handed. Our son shows most signs of being right handed (he is 4) but once in a while picks up sporting equipment and performs whatever task left handed and very accurately. We are waiting to let him figure it all out himself.

Hi ya Anne18 Both of my brother's are left handed (they are not twins) and me, my mum and my dad are all right handed. I will have to aske my brother to see if my nephews are right handed or left handed though it might be a bit early to tell as they are only just 3 years old. Do twins run in your family or your husbands?
