I'm right-handed for writing etc, but I use my left hand for using my phone. I, fact, any time I use a gadget, it's with my left hand. I also use my left hand for other random tasks. I'm not fully ambidextrous, but close enough for my liking.

I'm left handed, my wife's left handed but have two righthanded kids!! Struggled all my life with right handed things, worst being the bread knife and uneven slices! Found a company called http://www.anythingleft-handed.co.uk/
and now am getting a left handed bread knife!!
You don't realise just what a right handed world this is until you really look into it!! My right arm fills my shirt apparently and that's all!!

This bit is wrong though! The everyday Stanley Tape measure you can buy is actually better suited to the left handed individual and the one pictured below far more suited to that of the right handed gent such as myself, after 12 years being a Carpenter/Joiner I am still amazed they haven't done something about it!

the very same way you end up being gay, straight, bi etc etc, it's inbuilt.

When your being made by dad and mom the genes or coding of your characteristics or how you perform is all done. When you grow up your genes or coding kick in for such things as liking girs/boys left handed/right handed or smart and stupid. Put coding and performance for geeks who dont know biology.

Being utterly left-handed, I find myself not using my right hand that often, really
Before switching to a VAIO desktop replacement notebook, I struggled with an ergonomic mouse for the right-handed. The only lefty solution I've come across, albeit not a gaming one (with extra keys for e-mailing, IMing or picture and document editing) is the Logitech MX610 Cordless Laser:



Currently, I'm rather happy with Logitech's ambidexterous notebook solution the V500 Cordless Notebook with switched left and right button functions.



BTW, I cannot wink with my right eye, seriously.

Any other fellow Esatonians with a similar glitch?

Well old man, certainly not this hitherto unannounced one......

I may write left-handed, but am close to 'ambi'...eat right-handed; can web of death with either happily, and use katana/wakizashi 'properly' too...and I've also owned a LHD MR2(which I did 10 laps of Donny in ), out of my 8 all told......
