I know it sounds strange, but I am actually both. Although I write with my right hand, hold a pencil/fork, throw an object..,I play sports with my left hand. Catching, Tennis, Hockey, Basketball..lol. I can't alternate hands tho.

Kinda sorta. Does it count if I truly am ambidextrous? Whichever side a pen or a fork or anything happens to be laying when I go to pick it up, I use that hand. I'm equally as skilled with both.

I write better with my left hand, but some things, such as using a mouse, I can only do right handed because that's how I learned. Some things I can do with both hands such as using tools or playing a guitar.

For Videogames it doesn't really matter, since you use both hands!

I'm "south pawed" as you might say in your description. Only, here, they call the south paw the left hand. My family tried long and hard when I was little to get me to use my right hand instead of my left. Tried spanking, tried tying, rice kneeling, the works..but stubborn old me stayed with the left and stuck. Family always looks at the left hand as an evil symbol. I use the mouse with either one though, although at home it's left, at school I have no choice but the right...they lock down all the wires and stuff to the right side. Ehh..video games I use both, although sometimes, I find the right is faster/more handy even while the left is stronger/more enduring, odd.

Well lately i've just seen Shai posting alot of topics. Anyone going to warn him or is that ok? Topic spamming with just a few titles is really lame. I mean why would you do that? Just for some ROMS? Or just for some cool stuff in the gp store?

I thought people stopped doing that like 60 years ago.Your parents sound like religious zealots, especially with the rice kneeling.

Interesting, I'm the complete opposite of that, except that I do throw right-handed and catch left-handed, and can occasionally alternate hands

Eating from the floor is like standing on the dinner table, you can do it, but it wouldn't make sense.

I'm a right-hander, though I occasionally try to learn to use left hand while painting. You never know, you might break your right arm someday!

For music, videogaming, and occasionally eating, I'll use both hands. Other than that, I'll primarily use my right hand.

I used to be left handed, but due to "corrections" by catholics, i am now right handed. And my penmanship sucks with my left hand now...

It depends but I would probably use my right hand more often than my left hand.

Natural born right handed. If needed I can use my left hand to write. I do everything with both of my hands as I see them as equals. But the culture of my country placed the right hand above the left one. Personally I think its ridiculous ^_^
