My handedness is like my politics and my correctness - 100% right.

Although I shoot left in hockey.  Probably why I've always been a crappy hockey player. :(

I do deliver curling stones with my right though. :scots:

Very right-handed.  I can go left at all.  :(

Right-handed to a fault.  I'd say I can do shit with my left hand, but I'm not even sure I can.   :(

I've always been curious about the left-hand taboo in Arab and other various societies.  If they largely wipe their ass with their non-dominant hand, aren't they likely to do a significantly worse job?

my mother is left handed. my left arm is stronger than the right; many activities either have a left or right preference; i write with the right and do more with it in general, i think--though there's little problem when the left is used in most cases. so, i dunno?

Right.  I don't know why, but Chinese are also quite adament that children learn to use the right hand.

It used to be that way here, too.  I think we stopped trying to make kids switch to the right in the 1950s or 60s.

Right.
Though I eat in the way people say is left handed, it seems so much more logical to me though...

As I'm a lefty, I use my utensils "European-style" as well.

Right handed, but I shoot pistols ambidextrously.

in a land with a historically limited water supply and a disuse of eating utensils it's best not to eat with the hand you use to clean your ass.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Righty but I use my left for other stuff like most here.

Southpaw for writing.  I play guitar and normally shoot right-handed, though, and I can switch off for everything else (including guns, but it takes a bit more concentration).
Experience bij!

I've learned to shoot right-handed, yeah.
