Hi mylot-ers... Can you write with both hands? For me, i can write with both hands... im a right handed, thats why my handwriting with right hand is better than left hand. But i know how to write good with my left hand. It just that while my right hand is a professor style... my left hand is elementary... hahahhaha I have a professor in biochemistry, she can write in both hands and the hand writing is the same... nice and clear.. How about you?

No, I can't write with both hands. I can only write with my left hand. I have tried to write with my right hand before, but I have to go really slow in order for it to be somewhat legible. But no matter how slow I go it still turns out a little shaky. I could always practice, but as I can write with at least one of my hands that is good enough for me! LOL

No, i cant write with both hands, but i try atleast one by one hand. As i am right hand person so i usually using right hand for writing and other works. But sometime i trying to use left hand also - for example i trying to write from left hand or playing criket with left hand batsman. For me write with left hand if not so possible.

I'm right handed and only write with my right hand but I think that I'm leaving this kind of writing in the past. I much prefer to type, it's fast and I'm also quite fast on the keyboard. That is quite a gift to have though, I'm referring to someone that can write with both hands. I like the age of technology though and will always prefer the computer I think. Andrew

wow!! i really appreciate that gift of yours, seldom i can hear people that can write both hands it is just a good skill for you, I can never do the same like yours even just as an elementary style i couldn't do it, i've tried it hard but i still can't do that... I am right handed.. sad to say this reality that even i wrote using my right hand but still the result is not good. it is readable but not as neat/clear as the others did.

I am right handed. I cannot do much with my left hand at all. I cannot write with it either.

No i can't. I can write with my right hand but i can't with my left. My left hand is pretty stiff when it comes to writing. I write very slow and crooked with my left hand. It's the opposite when i am using my right hand. I am not ambidextrous. I can do other things with my left hand except to write.

I can not write very well with my left hand and I rarely use it. I write with my right hand mostly. I dont think any of my kids can write with their left hands either, they are all right handed.

For me, writing with both hands is like trying to lick my elbow. It's impossible! Haha.. You can do it but the writings won't be eligible. Or is it illigible. Yeah.. Something like that.

I can write in both hands but I can't write well with left hand. When I was a middle school student, I broke my right arm one day when I went out to play. During the period of recovery, I learned to write with my left hand and it really worked. People could know what I am writing although the characters were really not good in looking. That is really an interesting experience for me. Now I seldom write since the computer comes out. We use the keyboard to type nearly everything except our signatures. Cheers.

I am somewhat ambidextrous and can write a little bit with both hands. I have actually been told that both are readable as well. My main hand that I use is my left hand, but due to issues I have learned how to write with both. But I am sure people would know if I wrote with my right hand it was from that hand due to it would not be as neat.

Hi, I am right- handed but I have tried writing with my left hands. My handwriting of left hand is terrible and I have never think of training myself to write using left- hand. I heard that people who are left- handed are more creative but I am not sure how true is that. Its good to be able write using either hands.

I still remember my mother scolded me during my school days because i was trying to write with both hands. She discouraged me by saying that if i write with both hands my handwriting will become bad. So i stopped writing with left hand. So I can not write with left hand. But My writing with right hand is good. I don't know whether it is because i stopped writing with left hand.

I can write with both hands. However, I can only write well with my right hand. When I was very young, I broke my right arm. Then I tried to write with my left hand. That's why I can write with both hands. Usually I prefer to write with my right hand.

I *can* write with both hands, but it isn't pretty xD I had a period of 3 months when I couldn't use my right arm at all because I broke my hand so I was in a cast up to my shoulder. Of course, this happened just before a big exam on which I had to...write. So, I had to quickly learn to write with my left hand. Oh yeah. That was fun. xD
