Left handed or Right handed? so what?

I am both..I think I should have been left but I was made to use my right.I have alot of family who are left handed. At work I would freak my boss out by alternating typing with my right and writing with my left to the oppistie.She once threatened to tie one behind my back.lol..I was just faster than she was I think.

I'm actually right-handed but I know of people who have problems being left-handed. In school there are chairs that are made for right handed. It is hard for them to write on those kind of desks and to solve this they would go look for a left-handed desk in the room. Usually it is found at the back and they're put at a disadvantage.

I'm right handed, I'm nearly disabled when I can't use my right hand - like when I had my sholder surgery in 05 or when the cat chewed on my finger in March. Both of my roomie's are left handed. I guess because I live in the States I think trying to supress a leftie from using their left hand is barbaric!

I'm a right-handed. But good news for you. It's said that left-handed people are more artistic, with more creativity juice. I think that's brilliant!! But still, there shouldn't be any prejudice about such things. Humans really enjoy the fun of prejudice, don't they? They compare your skin colour, your hair colour, and strangely enough, even the hand you use to write!!

im a rght handed its gud for u scientist say that left side of the brain is for speech so u must be good in languages

Yes!You are totally right! I am left handed too but i don`t know what is the problem! I`m a artist and i don`t have a problem with the hand if you ask me this is dump to tell people that`s not fear .. And yeas i had been in that situation :)

Older people didn't understand the process that much, so they had this thing about left handed people. I remember when I was a kid at school, even the teachers used to try to "Correct the problem" by training lefties to use their right hand to write and do things. As if there was a problem. Thankfully people learned something since them, and one of the things they learned was to leave well enough alone. Left handed people have the same dexterity. What part of the brain is predominant is irrelevant. I am not left handed, but my cousin is and she did have lots of problems at school and at home with everyone trying to get her to use the right hand.

I am right handed. I can't see what's wrong with left handed. Actually here we think that left handed person are smarter:) I love China

i am right handed.i think both right and left handed is no difference.i can understand your situation.but i will tell you that you should just do yourself.in my country,people think left handed is more smart.

I am left-handed, but thankfully the biggest issue I've ever had with that was learning how to use right-handed scissors or looking for the proper baseball glove. However, my mother is a different story. When she was very young, my mother was put into a religious school. Her natural tendency was to use her left hand, but the nuns at this school viewed left-handedness as evil. Whenever my mother attempted to write with her left hand, she would get that hand smacked- hard- with a ruler or whatever else was available at the time. Her parents didn't realize because she hid it from them, honestly thinking she was doing something wrong. Still, her hand would get swollen and red and bruised. Eventually, she had no other choice but to do as the nuns expected, and she learned to write with her right hand. These days, she can write with both without any real difficulty. I can't imagine having someone tell you that it's wrong to use your left hand, or strange. Granted, it does make some things interesting (like using chopsticks, for example), but that doesn't mean it's wrong!

Some other people are so annal with a lot of things and even to those things that really doesn't affect them. Some other people cares too much about being left handed or right handed.. as if they live on the other side of the earth or I would rather say the lived under because they dont get it that human beings are designed and created percfectly and uniquely by the one who created us. So whe they saw someone not like themselves...they freaked out like crazy and worst of all marked them different and unbelong. I dont know people are just crazy probably. To me there is nothing with being lefthanded or righthanded as long as you know how use it for good reason.

evn i am a lefthanded person and i neva had a problem with it. i absolutely enjoy being a lefty.. and i am proud being a left handed..thanks

I'm right handed.although i never been in a situation like this,i know a little about it.some of my friend a left handed,and they tell me when they are young,their parent don't like this and forced then change their habit. but for me,most people use right hand,and i'm one of them,i try to do sth with left,but i can't control it well,so i think the guy can control it are so wonderful. and sb say,the people who is left handed is clever guy,so i try to train myself to use left hand,but it seems not work

Mostly adult tell me when I was kid that left handed people are more intelligent than right handed people.

I'm a lefty, though I wasn't always. I actually preferred my right hand, but became deathly sick when I was little and fell into a coma. After I recovered I preferred using my left hand. I've been a lefty ever since. Thankfully no one ever gave me a hard time being a lefty. I do remember my sister (she's older) being able to write with either hand for a while (she's right handed). Although I never asked, I'm guessing she was trying to encourage me to write right handed too. But I just couldn't seem to do it and she soon gave up on it. This could be one of the reasons why she didn't like me. Being left handed was just too strange to her.

Hi, LightninStrike. I am right handed and can not do anything with any real value with my left hand. Sometimes I wish I had been taught to do a few things left handed just to feel a little more balanced in some areas. My husband is left handed yet very ambidexterous. He writes, eats and does anything requiring dexterity left handed. He plays sports and anything requiring strength with his right hand. His parents tried to break him from being left handed but he was stubborn.

Well I'll tell you one thing. For any lefties out there wanting to join the Army, You better be able to use your right hand. Cause there weapons aren't made for lefties and its going to be dam hard for you to get used to it before BRM(Basic Rifle Marksmanship)K that is one of the only thing I know where it matters when it comes to lefties or righties.

Hey, Lightnin'. I'm a predominant lefty as well, and my biggest problems have been very minor. I used to get pencil all over my left hand as I wrote because I would drag it across the paper... through the already written words. I had a hard time learning my left from my right, because when people said "Raise your right hand" I thought they meant the hand with which you write, or right as in your "correct" hand. I would always raise my left. Other than that, I've enjoyed being left handed. It was an advantage when I used to box. People expect you to have a stronger right and a weaker left. I do some thing with my right hand, though. I play cards righty, I play guitar righty, and I tend to swing righty from time to time.

I'm a right handed. In China a left handed is not encouraged. The problem puzzles me now is my little son who is 2 years old is left handed. My parents ask me to correct his habit. But his right hand is not agility as the left. Is there anybody tell me the difference between the two habits? Shall I correct my son's habit? Thanks. In my opinion I would not like to correct his habit. I don't think this is a bad one. But how can I persuade my parents?

I am right handed, but I have a very good friend who is left handed. Just a couple of days ago I noticed how odd it looks when he is writing. It's like he makes his letters in a totally different way than I do. With the lowercase "d" for example, I start a the top of the stem, draw a straight line in the downward direction, and then draw the round part of the letter. My friend, however, starts writing the "d" at the base of the round part (where it connects to the stem). He draws the round part, and then writes his stem in the upward direction. It looked so strange to me. I just could not imagine writing like that. As my friend told me, "we live in a right handed world, I've just made adjustments". When I was a junior in high school, all of my teachers except for one, were left handed. I thought that was pretty unique, since I didn't know that many left handed people at that time. I really think people who are ambidextrous have a pretty cool talent. Many things just feel awkward to me when I try to use my left hand, and I think it would be neat to be able to use both hands equally.
