Which hand are you?

[LuvBug]

I'd like to add--that the poll specifically asked which hand you write with.

and I never saw that! I always take the name of the thread as the question in a poll... I never realized there is a question under the title(which happens to be a question) lol!

I prefer my right because my left writing sucks! But I can and do write with my left time to time. I do a heck of a lot more typing than writing

 

[southpawboston]

Lefty, but I use my right hand to cut with scissors and drive. LOL

i use both hands to drive, lol...

I am right handed, Dh is right handed, DS1 is left handed to eat, write and draw...not sure what he'll be for sports, etc, he tends to use his right for stuff like that. DS2..who knows what he'll be.

DS1 - That's pretty much me - so I marked "other" since I'm not able to switch hands for much.

I eat, write, do needle crafts (back when I used to be creative with such things), play ping-pong, and frisbee (badly) with my left. Most everything else is right.

The family lore says (and photos/home movies show) that when I was 2-6 years old, I would eat left, EXCEPT for ice cream and other desserts, where I would use my right.

I am definately a righty when it comes to writing. I can do many things left handed however. I used to feed myself with my left hand while feeding a student with my right back in my working days. I taught severely multiply impaired. I play hockey left handed, I think because my lefty brother and lefty sister taught me.

My oldest dd is hopelessly left handed, she can't do anything with her right, lol. She showed a strong preference for her left as soon as she started reaching for objects as an infant. My other two are righties and didn't show a preference until they started coloring with crayons as toddlers.

I've often heard that kids don't show a strong preference until age 5 or so, mine were MUCH earlier!

I voted right-handed.

 

[AdventureMom]

I voted other, because I don't have any hands, I attempted to install some crappy Cosco seat (the AO?) and they got stuck in the belt path, so my hands had to be amputated.

ROTFL!!! Thanks - I needed a good laugh!

 

[AdventureMom]

I voted RH - like Amber, my left hand is useless. However, DH could vote "other" b/c he can use his toes almost like fingers... ... Seriously, I call him "monkey toes" b/c he picks up stuff with them! Freaks me out.

 

[Simplysomething]

Monkey toes is my nickname. lol
We have freakishly long toes in my family, what can I say?

 

[broken4u05]

I am right handed but can do some things with my left. But when holding a child they are always on the left. not sure why. Right arm gets tired. But i can hold 2 at once for a while(do this all the time with the twins)

 

[solmama]

I'm right handed along with my husband and son. My daugher, however, is a lefty. .

 

[Synchro246]

I voted right, but I also do a lot of things left-handed - most sports, wear wrist watch on opposite wrist from most people... carrying kids, that kind of thing.

I voted right, but I'm in that boat too. I shoot a gun lefty. I CANNOT shoot any other way.

 

[Lea_Ontario]

I'm a righty.
DH and Boo are lefties.
Bug is a righty.
