    Well, not that it really matters, it's just that it would be interesting to know how the different people on BoM are.

    [​IMG] I voted ambidextrous - but I'm more ambisinister (useless with both hands :p )

    I write normally (pfft) with my right hand = backwards with left

    can use a mouse either way

    I'm ambidextrous but use my right hand most of the time. I use the mouse with my left hand but Vermillion keeps moving it back to the right so I have to make do

    Right-handed, even though early in my youth I learned to use my left-hand almost as well as I did my right.

    I am right handed but I can do most things almost as well with my left hand as I can with my right hand. When I used to play hockey I used a straight bladed stick and switched from being a right to left handed shot when needed.

    The real exception to this is hand writing, my writing with my left hand is just terrible, not that my penmanship is particularly good with my right hand but even I can't read anything that I write with my left hand.

    I write miserably with either (someone said "ambisinister"?) but I use my right for everything. However, when batting at baseball or shooting with a hockey stick, I do so left handed. I'm just generally uncoordinated, though, to tell the the truth!

    I was probably left-handed as a child. I used to write with my left hand doing many other things with the right one however. With weapons, glasses or mouse I'm ambidexterous. With a pen less so.

    Right handed. I can't imagine how people can write left, it's so damn hard.

    i am left handed but was forced to use right hand during childhood, now, i write with my right hand, draw with left hand
    and just like 8people, i can write with left hand but the words are of mirror image (just like da vinci)
    about feeding..that depends...spoons, fork with left hand, knife, chopstick with right hand
    ball games left side seems to be better
    and mouse...depends on my mood =_=

    I'm right handed, but I'm almost as good with the left hand in everything except writing.

    It's hilarious the number of people who think they're ambidextrous just because they eat with their knife in the left hand, or wear a watch on their right wrist, or hold a phone with their left hand.

    I'm right handed. No crap. Right handed.

    I've had the Ambidexterity and Two-pen/fork/knife writing/eating feats since I was like... really little...

    I usually just use my right hand tough...
