I gave up a long time ago and do everything but eating and writing with my right hand.

I write left handed, but that's about it (I bowl left handed, and would play guitar left handed too, if I could play, as it is, best I can do is pick one up ;))

Left-handed: Writing/Drawing, Baseball (throwing), Fishing (feels more natual to reel in with my left hand)

Right-handed: Golf, Bowling

Either hand: Baseball (batting, but stronger at right), Computer Mouse

Does that make me ambidextrous?

ok guys, i have a confession to make. i'm left-handed. i figured it out when i was 4 years old, but i didn't have the heart to tell my parents until i was 5. i still bowl and play guitar right-handed though, cause i don't want to shove my "leftness" into people's faces.

Wow there's an actual left handers day??? I never knew!

I'm left handed but only when writing and eating (using silverware). Everything else I do right handed. What does that make me?

It actually never occurred to me to use the other hand for the mouse. Maybe it's because my mice at home are right handed, but I never moved the mouse/mousepad over and ended up getting used to using it with my right hand

When I pulled a tendon in my right arm, i learned to play frisbee with my left hand. I couldn't throw with my right before because i was too tense. After my arm healed, i taught my right hand, and now i play frisbee catching and throwing with each/both hands.

I drive pretty well with my left hand and thumb.

Otherwise, i am right handed.
