Left or Right Handed?

11-01-2005, 02:34 PM

Left.

RLacey · 11-01-2005, 02:35 PM

Right. Left-handed people are sinister.

What? They are! Go look up "sinister" in a Latin dictionary!

squarejawhero · 11-01-2005, 02:38 PM

I agree, I'm sinister.

But left handed people tend to also be more creative. I'm actually ambidextrous and don't exclusively use my left hand for anything other than drawing.

Also, masturbation is better with the left hand. Not that I would know, er, of course...

Yea....... riiiiight.

I am right handed. When I was little, I used to pretend I could write with my left hand 'cause I thought it was cool.

More or less same here. I write and draw with my left hand but everything else I mainly do with my right hand. It's really handy (get it, heh) to be ambidextrous. When I get tired in my right hand I just shift to my left.

But then again I'm a slow writer, which might have something to do with me being ambidextrous with the right hand as the dominant one in everything besides writing/drawing. Or not, I don't know.

How could you answer other? (i.e. what conditions would need to present to warrant picking 'other' - just to clarify)

I'm right handed by the way.

11-01-2005, 03:16 PM

Just my little joke. Everytime I post a poll, I include "Other.", even when it's not needed. However, it could be taken seriously. What if you don't have hands?

Intrepid Homoludens · 11-01-2005, 03:23 PM

I'm left handed and I write with a hook.

11-01-2005, 03:29 PM

I knew it. There's no way you could be right handed.

Once A Villain · 11-01-2005, 03:31 PM

I'm both. I cut food and type with my left hand (yes it's true, I barely use my right hand when typing and I still type faster than most people I know). However, I can only write with my right hand.

I'm too sinister to be right handed.

DustCropper · 11-01-2005, 03:34 PM

I chose other.

By both I thought you meant if we could do the same action with either the left or right hand. My bad.

Some things I can only do with my right hand, and somethings I can only do with my left.

Fairygdmther · 11-01-2005, 03:42 PM

I use both - I'm not very good writing left handed, but I can do it. I can't draw with either hand! I use left for the mouse and eat or write, or whatever with my right at the same time. I'm mostly right handed, I guess, but pretty good left handed as a whole.

I'm mostly right-handed, but I can handle some coordinated things with my left hand. I can write somewhat legibly with my left hand, albeit going really slowly...

Peace & Luv, Liz

Crunchy in milk · 11-02-2005, 02:23 AM

People still write by hand?

I recall in primary school we where taught cursive writing, I was generally poor even then but lack of use over the years has seen my handwriting deteriorate to illegible scrawl. They forced me to pick a hand and I was pressured into learning to write with the right hand.

I'm right handed then I guess, but I still open jars with my left hand (on the lid) and tend to carry bags in my left hand or on my left shoulder... I guess to keep the right hand free, the prevailing hand of society used in greeting and obscene gestures to great effect.

Ninth · 11-02-2005, 02:27 AM

I left-handed, in that I write with my left hand (and I'm much better with left handed cissors).
But really, I do almost everything else with my right hand...

Tobbe · 11-02-2005, 03:24 AM

I´m right handed..

Dark Veil · 11-02-2005, 04:12 AM

I'm a lefty

I'm also pretty left from center as far as pollitics are concerned but that would be another poll...
