Right or Left Handed? - Page 2

AbFabGab · 01-30-2009, 10:04 AM

Like DG, I write with my left hand but seem to do all else with my right hand...

My daughter started out writing with either hand but then the teacher
made her stick to one and now she's a righty.. sigh.

This poll could be rephrased as follows:

Which foot is dominant? Which do put in you mouth?

* Right
* Left
* Both (at once or separately)
* Neither

I chose "none," because I want to ingratiate myself with the socks. They have powerful friends, like the squid, for instance.

I kick with my left, but put both in my mouth, quite frequently.

Cheers,
Marc

Completely right handed, but can site a gun only with my left eye. Which drove my instructors in the military bats. I always replied, "Yes, but the times as a psychiatrist that I have had to actually shoot someone have been minimal, and even then, I only try to wing them."

Most studies show that 12-13% of the population are left-handed, with slightly more boys than girls (about 5 boys to every 4 girls). There's no particular reason to suppose that the demographics of MR should differ from this.

Yes Ma'am I did and I voted before I even posted here! lol
Perhaps it would have been easier just to list the continents?

It's a known fact lefties are much smarter than righties
and readers are smarter than the general population
so I would expect a high proportion of lefties on this forum.
