Right or Left Handed?
After a beta test of this poll, Hugo and Lefty demanded (that is putting it mildly) that the extra options be added.

I've mentioned this before on this site but it bares (or is it bears) repeating. I would give my left arm to be ambidextrous.

You have the right to bare arms, so wear short sleeve shirts, at least on your left arm.

When you use your foot, in the shower, to pick up a dropped wash cloth and place it into your hand, do you "foot it to yourself" or do you "hand it to yourself with your foot"?

I cannot be the only 'lefty' on this site.

Totally left handed here. Except I do type with both hands, but holding a pencil in my right has always, always just felt 'wrong'...

I voted "both." I write with my left hand, do many other things with my right hand, but have no strong hand preference for learning new tasks or skills.

On the gripping hand, I'm not truly ambidextrous either. That is, I'm not able to learn a skill with one hand and then do it equally well with the other. Lack of preference is not the same as being ambidextrous.
