Being left dominant in a right hand world makes one fairly ambidextrous.
I write left. Can swing a hammer with either, but left is more natural. Swing a bat right, play (very poorly) a right-hand guitar. When the right arm was immobilized in a sling from a torn bicep tendon, I got along just fine. Recently had left arm immobilized in a sling from rotator cuff surgery. Got along fine. |

When i was in college, some sociology student did her masters thesis on left-handed people. She had about a hundred questions for me. i was 98% left-handed, whatever that means.

I was born right handed. My spinal injury forced me to re-train with my left hand for 99% of all tasks. I can write with either but only my left is fully functional.

Left. My office of 60 people is significantly left handed. Not sure exact percentages but probably 3-4x.

Lefties are statistically more intelligent.
That explains everything.

Very right handed, but I bat and golf left handed.
When I’m trying to thread a nut onto a bolt I can’t see I have to do it with my left hand. My right just doesn’t have the sensitivity. I wish there was no difference. I’d give my right arm to be ambidextrous.

Left for writing, and swinging a bat. Ambidextrous for everything else... swing a hammer either hand, same with welding... actually starting to thread a bolt in seems easier right handed.
My wife is also left handed, as is one of our 3 kids.

Left for writing, shoot a bow left, but a gun right. Can bat fairly good when I was young either way, but throw the ball left. Use a right hockey stick.

Right for anything that requires fine motor skill like writing or painting. Left for almost everything else. Rifles, shotguns, and my crossbow I shoot equally well with either. My compound bow I shoot left handed. I shift my car with my right hand
