Upside down. Lefty makes no difference I am a lefty also.
Proper in my example would be the fork between your index and middle finger with the handle of the fork laying at the base of your index and held in place with your thumb. The tines pointing up.
My daughter was holding the fork between her middle and fourth finger, tines pointing down and the handle pointing straight up. Elbow on the table
poke a piece of food, pivot on her elbow and twist her wrist to put the food in her mouth.
For those of you that think manners and being polite don't matter, then you will be just fine if the next time you and your wife are out to dinner. As I pass by your table I belch and pass gas? Enjoy your meal.
Get off my lawn.
