My cube neighbor does. He's not left handed either. I can mouse left handed if I need to but only when I'm someone else's cube and they are left handed. I don't mind and I'm sure they don't want me moving their mouse to the right side. I'd probably forget to move it back anyway.

I'm as right-handed as can be.

1) I write right-handed,
2) Ride regular on a snowboard (steer right-legged),
3) Carry my purse on my right shoulder (even had a benign lump removed from my shoulder which is suspected to have resulted from this)

I'm a lefty!

I mouse right-handed, mainly because my work in IT and my upbringing (in a tiny rural town where I had to bring my own left handed Scissors! since they had none and couldn't figure out why I had such trouble cutting.)

I trackpad left handed.
I throw, bat, write left handed.

I've been known to rock the mouse with my left hand sometimes.

I was born left-handed, raised right handed, and am now ambidextrous I mouse with both the left and right hands. It depends on how I feel like sitting at the moment, but for most things, I mouse right handed.

I consider myself a lefty because I write left-handed, but after that I do very few things with my left-hand. Throwing a frisbee I think is the only other thing, everything else I do right-handed.

Physically I'm right side dominant.

I can't throw a ball left handed without looking like a little girl throwing a cannonball. I kick better with my right foot and I favor my right foot when skiing.

When it comes to my fine motor skills I am TOTALLY left handed.

I used to be ambidextrous but the Montessori school I attended as a child made me favor my dominant hand.

Here's a good one to add...

For those of us that write left handed... do you write with the standard pen grip or the wonky handed grip?

Standard:

Wonky:

I honestly thought it was impossible for lefties to write standard. Never seen one do it before. We have always tilted the paper at some ridiculous angle just to get the words on the page and in doing so left huge lead smeared marks on our hands.

I'm a righty, though for archery I'm a 'lefty', as my left eye is dominant. Which is great in competitions because it freaks the other guy out to be facing you (normally he'd just see your back) but which sucks when I'm teaching because I have to reverse everything and, after shooting since I was 11, it feels plain weird to do it the 'normal' way.

I can mouse left handed though and sometimes use the skill to give my right wrist a break when RSI is playing up.

My mum is ambidextrous (though she prefers using her left hand) which completely freaks people out as she can write with both hands simultaneously! And she uses the 'standard' grip.

I write wonky. My sister, who is left handed, writes with the standard grip.

Did anyone else have those ridiculous desks in school with the little writing surface on the right side?
Similar to this one:

I always had to perform feats of contortion to write on these things, or just put the notebook in my lap.

I normally used the standard variantion, but I also used the "Been writing this essay too long and my hand hurts"

Demonstrated here:

I was born left handed but my mom had me start using my right hand, so I'm now actually ambidextrous which means I'm able to use both hands equally well.

It's crazy, I can write with both hands at the same time, like doing two lines at once.

I can also write a mirror image of what I'm doing with either hand at the same time too.

Maybe I could get a side job at a carnival or something? :)

I'm a righty for most things, but when it came to gymnastics, I was always left-leg dominant. Unfortunately, the routines were mostly choreographed for righties, so I had to re-learn most of my tricks anyway.

Scrivs... I must be one of the few who write standard-left.

I'll snap a pic too :)

I don't even tilt the paper either (most of the time)

what a sweet note. I'm with joshawesome. I was born lefty and raised righty.

I write righty, and I mouse righty. After that, I'm mostly lefty (especially sports-wise)!

I am a left hander, I also mouse with my left hand and I write wonky although the paper is never tilted.
I can write with my left hand in the standard way however it isn't long before I go to the wonky way; it just feels too awkward for me.

I remember my mother making my left handed little brother use his right hand. Poor thing. It looked so painful. I don't know if it was so he could use those awful desks at school, or because she was afraid he'd get the evil eye, but it didn't strike me as a good idea.

Still, I'd love to be able to use my left hand as well as my right. It seems like a good party trick, and might come in handy were I decide to change careers and become, say, a baseball player.

Bloglily - my mum had the same when she was growing up. Her dad used to try and force her to use her right hand (which is how she's now ambidextrous). Thanks to that experience, with my brother and me, she just let use whichever hand came naturally. For me, that's the right, for my brother the left, though he uses his right more now as he broke his left hand at school when everyone was learning to write, so he learnt first with his right.

It's all highly odd!

@bloglily and @cas:

Same about my second brother. Actually, it came at the request of my grandmother in Taiwan, that he be converted. My third brother was allowed to remain lefty, but unlike my second brother he was born in The States. My ancestors' cultural tradition, I gathered, viewed being lefty as being "abnormal." I, for one, am kind of envious of lefties (okay and the ambidextrous).

There used to be a school of thought that one had to conform to the majority in cases like lefthandedness etc.

My mother was actually told that if I was to remain ambi, then I would have severe learning disabilities later on in life so I should be forced to use my dominant hand.

Studies now show that they were really full of crap but....

I'm not actually left handed but I mouse left handed. I can write using either hand but when I'm using my left it's pretty messed up. I do most things left handed though.

I am left handed when it comes to eating; everything else is accomplished with my right. Never had any learning disabilities to speak of. I also shoot a gun right handed but my left eye is dominant (as is my left ear - used to be a sonar tech). M'dear seems to think I'm a lefty because I was a "blue baby".

Write with both hands, use scissors with my left hand, otherwise I mix it up, but am right leg dominant for soccer and snowboarding or anything else for that matter.

I write standard with my left hand.

no im a righty, but when im in the shower i write words on the glass shower door with my left hand....lol...it makes me feel like i am conquering something
