I am right handed. My brother is left handed and I always say that left handed people can do many things different ways. They can see better under the water. Approximately 10-13% of the population is left handed. People who can use both hands equally well are ambidextrous. True ambidexterity is rare. Generally, males are three times more likely to be left-handed than females.

I am totally right handed. I can hardly use my left hand. My hubby is also right handed, but he can sometime use his left hand succesfully. I try sometime do some thing in special circumtances, like if I get pain or have got cut my finger or something of my right hand. In that case also I can't use my left hand successfuly.

I am more of an ambidextrous person. I write with my left hand, but I do most things with my right hand. Weird I know, but then that's life. I write left handed, but I shoot a basketball with my right hand. I bat right handed in baseball, in fact in all sports I use my right hand for the majority of things. Except in baseball I throw with my left hand and not my right hand. I also can't throw a football with my right hand, only my left. Strange how it all works out and stranger how the brain configures everything. :-P

I use both my right and my left hand. I suppose given the fact that I have been a musician for many years, both my hands have always been in use. I have to admit that I prefer to write with my right hand as it is faster than the left.

I am left-handed, but there are many things I can do right-handed, mainly because of necessity. I can cut paper with my right hand better than with my left, as when I grew up there were not lefty scissors. Those little dandies didn't come around until my later elementary school years. I can throw a ball with both hands. Get this, I am most accurate with my left, but I can throw further with my right! I always start walking with my left foot, even though in school they always wanted us to start with our right foot when walking in formations. I always got yelled at! It's just more comfortable starting with the left foot, as I am uneasy and unsure of my footing when I start with my right foot. Kind of like feeling dizzy for me.
