Are you left handed, right handed or amphibious?

Anyone remember Man From Atlantis?

Patrick Duffy was the amphibious star

 

[Pat "5mph"]

I'm ambidextrous

Write and hold a fork with my left. When I did martial arts I would throw a punch with my right arm.

Whilst I am right handed I have to carry out a lot of my trade left handed. I also swim at least 6 miles a week.

Do you swim round in circles a lot?

Left handed for writing but pretty much right handed (and footed) for everything else.

 

[Dayvo]

Nah, more of a cinema/theatre man myself.

Never been into amphitheatres.

Predominantly right handed, but ok with left hand.

Was caught red-handed once, though.

 

[User33236]

Was heavily left handed until I damage nerves and tendons in it when i was 12. Fell on a broken Irn-Bru bottle! Was two years before I got reasonable use back by which time I'd become very capable with my right hand too.

 

[Biff600]

A bit of both.

I write right handed, and also wear my watch on the right wrist.

I hold my knife in my left hand and my fork in the right.

But best of all...I play guitar right-handed, but bass left handed !!

I thought The Man From Atlantis was really The Man From Norfolk !!

 

[Old jon]

Yes

 

[Drago]

Right, but my right arm isn't good for much at all right now so I'm struggling.

 

[slowmotion]

I'm right-handed and footed but left-eyed. I can just about swim in a straight line but my left arm and leg are functionally vestigial. I'm still fond of them.

 

[Ian H]

I can write right or left-handed, but mirror-script with the left, and simultaneously script and mirror-script. I use some tools with either hand, including paint brushes. Scissors, right-hand only. On a bike I clip in left-footed.

No, oblongs.

interesting phenomenon. Righties see the thread and think "meh" and click the link or not as they feel. Lefties think "this is a thread about me" and vote. Thus while 90% of population is right handed, it's less than 50% of the poll votes.

(Not judging, it's the same as if there is a post about gender, you'll find a large preponderance of women in the responses even though they are about 10% of the members here)
