Are you left handed?

I am, and was wondering how many of my Linux brothers and sisters here at Linuxforums.org were too...

No, I'm right-handed but left-eyed, and it's always caused me some problems...

Yes, that can be a problem. Do you do anything other than write, right handed? Did you have a teacher who made you use your right hand?

Everything is righty for the most part. No, I don't really remember ever being forced to go righty, but I might have been. This causes lots of grief any time I try to do any shooting with firearms, or archery.

i can only write with my right hand.. but just barely. i do brush my teeth with my left hand and just about everything else i am about the same skill wise between the two. however my right hand seems better for doing individualized, high control tasks while my left is way better at repetative tasks. but i guess technicly that makes me right handed since thats the only one i can actualy write with even though its just barely.

Writing - Right
Vision - both
Trigger control - both
batting - both
Throwing - right
Bra unhooking - left

Weird stuff like that.

Lefty over here.
Did you know that the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body, and the left side of the brain controls the right side of the body.

So only left-handed people are in there right mind.

I'm right handed, but I also wear my watch on my right hand - which many people find weird.
