Left-hand/right-hand dominant
The post about guitars and all the folks saying they were left handed got me curious about hand dominance... so simple question. Are you left handed or right handed, and how dominant is that hand? Are you almost all one-handed or do you just favor one over the other? Or do you feel you're truly ambidextrous?

I'm strongly left-handed. The only thing I can think of off the top of my head that I do right-handed is use scissors, and that's mainly because growing up, left-handed scissors sucked balls.

Most of the time I use my right hand, but now and then it's like cheating using the left hand.

Write RH, Throw RH, can kick both, bat LH, L eye dominant (shoot LH).
I don't know how to explain it. Maybe was LH dominant and just was taught to use mah RH for writing early?

My grandpa says when he was a kid and first started writing, he naturally picked up the pencil with his left hand. However, that was "of the devil" and his mother and the teacher would smack his hand if he used his left to write. He says that forcing him to use his right hand only resulted in him being clumsy with both hands.

Bummer I loathed baseball. Additionally as far as boxing/MMA is concerned, I traditionally spar out of a right hand stance but LH is dominant while I feel my RL is more dominant for leg kicks and my left leg is dominant for high/body kicks. I'm just a mess. It did create some unique sparring sessions and was nice to have a solid switch-kick. My right hook out of a SP stance sucks but my OHR out of regular is okay. LH out of orthodox is fine as is my straight L out of southpaw. OHL out of southpaw is beyond slow and telegraphed.

In nice settings/occasions, I eat LH.
