 Topic: Your hand preference?

I would just like to know is the PA community sharing the same ratio of lefties and righties as the rest of the world...
Curious to see the results. Shoot!

I'm left handed, left footed, but luckily I am more to the right (side) in politics 
However I do most of the things that require precision with my right hand because I was taught to write with my right hand.

I'm right-handed
But one can be righty for the hand and lefty for the foot and oppositely
So the subject deserves another poll

I am a leftie; I do the majority of the things with my left hand, including brushing teeth, writing, holding spoon/fork. Strings on my bass / guitars are turned upside down to fit the leftism.

I'm right-handed. I wish I was left though, since it's more Prog. (  )

An interesting on-topic story - there's the case of a man who lost both his arms in an accident, the doctors were able to save one of his less damaged hands/arms by re-attaching it, but on the other side (because muscles and nerves on the left side were too damaged). Now he has his one hand - left hand on the place of the right hand, with his thumb facing inside. After a long therapy, he started to use a hand again, for smaller tasks and basic writings. Is he left- or right-handed?!?

I'm ambidextrous, but at one point in life decided to go for right-handed (basically after everyone told me I had to use the "beautiful" hand for writing and holding a knife. Yes, they still did that kind of bulls**t when I was a kid).

Ambidextrous, I'm bound to symbolically or realistically be that way, since I don't joke with my instrument. Gotta have the perfect balance in order to master my skills.  In the rest of life however, I'm not that ambidextrous, but right-handed.

Find a fly and eat his eye
But don't believe in me
Don't believe in me

I'm right-handed, and my right arm is almost double bigger than my left one. I'm almost "handicapped" on the left side. Training the left side when you're right-handed requests brain parts that you normally don't use
and it's good.

I am sort of ambidextrous. Like Rico I try to maintain equal strength in both hands to master the piano (okay I'm a beginner but still). I am mainly right handed but I can write left handed if I want to. I can't play bass left-handed though.

There's something odd about the topic title... something sounds weird in that question....
Anyway, I'm right-handed.

I am left handed, and the difference in numbers between left-handed and right-handed people here on the archives seems pretty slim...
