I was dominantly lefty until I started playing sports around 6 or 7. I started batting righty, and eventually played hockey as a righty. I did this because I followed what the coaches were instructing. Anyways, that developed my coordination and I can now do everything with both hands. I write neater with my right hand, but write faster with my left. On a whiteboard, I can write two different things at the same time, but it gets difficult on paper. I choose to write with my left hand, but do other things as a righty (such as eating).

I rule myself ambidextrous.

Lefty.

I do use scissors with my right hand. Actually, I'm pretty ambidextrous, and could easily learn to write with my right if I had to. But my left hand definitely dominates for most things.

I'm a righty, but I can do fairly well with my left hand - writing and such. But I wouldn't call myself ambidextrious (sp??).

Having tennis elbow issues with my right arm has made me do more things as a lefty.

I write right-handed, but do several other things left-handed. I'm fairly ambidextrous, but generally consider myself right-handed. Being ambidextrous came in handy during the 10 years or so that I was a wallpaper hanger. Never had a problem using either hand to do the trimming and getting in to tight corners.

Righty or Lefty.. Hmmmm... I don't know, I thought I was a Righty, but as it turned out, I was a Wrongy...

I'm right-handed.
