I thought it was just me. It's pretty kool to find out if someone is left handed. I'm also working on ambidexterity, it's hard. ;p

I find it especially interesting as I write left handed, but do other things right handed. I'm not exactly sure why,but I think alot of it has to do with the hydrocephalus I had as a baby (and I'm totally healthy now). It's just how my brain worked itself out over the years.
I guess you can say I'm sorta ambedextrious. What makes it really interesting is that my bro and I both write left handed, but my parents are right-handed. My dad's side of the family is almost completely left handed. I"m not so sure on my mom's side of the family...I believe they were righties. So which handedness any future may have could be a complete 50-50 toss up.
Now, what would really strike my interest is learning about personalities through which side of the brain tends to be used more often.

Left handed is sinister. This is simply the word "left" in Latin. I first attended Catholic School in 1971. I was never restricted for being left handed. This practice or trying to teach students to write with their right hand went out with the second Vatican Council ( 1962 ) This practice of teaching children to write with their right hands is because writing with your left hand will drag the palm across fresh ink smearing the letters. In the first grade 1969 (a public school), I had straight A's except for penmanship. A left handed writer is simply not as legible. Grammar and spelling have nothing to do with handedness. However, the negative memories of harsh discipline might have adverse effects. Good Luck and God Bless

it does. Som person who is left-handed primarily uses his or her left hand, more so than the right hand; a left-hander will probably use the left hand for tasks such as personal care, cooking, and so on. Writing is not as precise an indicator of handedness as it might seem, a better determining of left-handedness results when the differentiation between an individual's major motor activities versus minor or small muscle motor activities is employed. Thus the applications of one's left-hand for eating, writing and similar minor motor activities would be differentiated from major motor activities such as throwing a ball or swinging a bat, etc. While there are numerous individuals who use their left hand for the minor motor activities, there is a much smaller group of people who are "total lefties" i.e. do both minor and major activities with their left hand.
e people write with two hands. I think it's cool.

I'm always interested in that, too. One of my friends, a lefty, and I decided to see if we could write with our feet, and if so, whether we'd be left or right footed.
We both took chalk and went out into her backyard and started writing and drawing with our toes. Her kids thought we'd lost our minds. Turns out I was a righty, and she, again, was a lefty. However, she could do almost as well with her right foot as her left - she just felt more comfortable holding the chalk with her left toes.
I can't believe I just posted this. Wow.
