Poll
Question:
Left-handed or right-handed?
Option 1: I am a genius lefty, filled with boundless imagination and creativity
votes: 11
Option 2: I am a boring, fascist righty, and act accordingly
votes: 37
Have we ever had a poll like this before, anyway?
I'm a righty, but where's the option for the ambidextrous?
Lefty. Like 50% of the population.
All data previously obtained on that question is totally biased towards right handedness.
Depends.
Mostly righty, but I shoot a goalie stick left handed...

Is that what kids are calling it these days?
But seriously same here, along with guitar and wearing watch on right which always makes people assume I'm lefty.
Northpaw.
Right-handed.
Left-handed.

Much like unicorns, bisexuality and black unity, ambidextrous people are myth and legend.

Along those same lines: I can work a computer mouse left-handed...
:shifty:
Right-handed to a fault. I'd say I can do shit with my left hand, but I'm not even sure I can. :(
Right-handed, but do certain things with my left.
Right-handed, but with some functions that default to left for some reason.
Didn't vote, no option for a genius righty.
:ph34r:
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. :(

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?
Left-handed.
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.
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).
I've learned to shoot right-handed, yeah.
I can give hand-jobs with either. Helps when one inevitably gets tired.
You win the thread.

Proud right-handed fascist. Can't figure out how my nephew & niece turned out to be left-handed, since nobody in our family, nor anyone in my sister in law's family is a lefty.
Tommy initially seemed to prefer writing & throwing with his left hand, then switched back & forth for a while, and now he generally uses his right hand.
I'm normal.
Obviously it is better to be different. It isn't normal to have millions of dollars.
Right handed, although as a kid I held a toy pistol with my right hand but a toy rifle with my left.
And I apparently hold my pen in a left handed fashion, even though it's in my right hand.
Right-handed fascist, 2nd battallion "The Willing Executioners".
Lefty. :)
