Agent_Smith Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 I came across this fact that one in one hundred people are ambidextrous, and scientists don't know why. I also learned that 1 in 100 people are ace and scientists don't know what causes people to be ace. I used to be ambidextrous when I was younger, but then gradually preferred my left hand. In summary, I'm just curious if all or most aces are ambidextrous. Link to post Share on other sites
Skycaptain Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Very right-handed Link to post Share on other sites
Joel. Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 I'm right handed with everything except writing. I broke my right arm when I started learning to write, so I had to learn it with my left hand. Link to post Share on other sites
EngineeRaven Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 I'm a mixed-rightie, I'm primarily right-handed, but I do certain things with my left (mostly stuff that require short nails, like putting in my contact lenses. I play the guitar, so my left hand is my short-nailed hand). Link to post Share on other sites
Lunala Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 I'm a right-handed person - like a lot of people. Once I got bored and tried to train myself to be ambidextrous (apparently you can train yourself, it just takes lots of practise) but I gave up after day 2. Link to post Share on other sites
GoneForGood Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Left hand mixed. I was born pretty much ambidextrous but with a preference for my left hand. I injured my right arm seriously once when I had a seizure and now I do very little with it (basically the things which can only be done with right handed tools like scissors, I don't have the money to spend 10x extra on items that work in my left hand) Link to post Share on other sites

Alejandrogynous Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Left-handed. Maybe a little mixed? Some tasks I use my right hand for but that's mostly because I live in a right-handed world so I was forced to adapt. Link to post Share on other sites
SpaceDustbin Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Definitely right hand. Broke my left arm when I was 7, so I trained my right even more, while my left hand/arm was fairly useless for a while, even after it had healed Link to post Share on other sites
Muledeer Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Right hand mixed. I can skin a beef with my left hand, and certain other tasks, but I prefer to use my right hand most of the time. Link to post Share on other sites
ColeHW34 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Mainly left hand but I do tend to use my right hand if my left hand cramps up or is asleep. Link to post Share on other sites

I'm left handed and when I wear a watch, it's on my left wrist...and omg the challenge of using my right to put it on. 😂 Link to post Share on other sites
J. van Deijck Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 in my case mostly left hand, but I'm probably ambidextrous or mixed since there are things I can do with my left hand only, and most of things is easy for my both hands. Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Heart Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 *raises right hand and waves* Hi! Another right-handed person present.

Most people who I have known to wear a watch on the right were left handed. *looks down at the Ace bracelet currently on my right wrist* I tend to wear my bracelets - which usually have a clasp of some sort because I like them to be smaller than they would need to be in order to slide on - on my right wrist.

XYZ96 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 I’m right-handed, though there are a few things I do more with left, like drinking out of something I do with left usually... Link to post Share on other sites
ametrine Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 I'm ambidextrous! I also have synesthesia. I've often wondered if those are connected, and if they are connected to my sexuality as well. Link to post Share on other sites
Life With Masks Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 I'm a boring right-handed. Not that all right-handers are boring. It's just me. Link to post Share on other sites
AngelWolf53 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I am left handed for everything except using a mouse. I use a mouse with my right because that's how I learned it in my first computer class, and when I originally did try changing it, my computer teacher got annoyed, so it just kind of stuck. I've tried using it with my left hand when I got older, but I could never get used to it at all. Link to post Share on other sites
8Lottie8 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Leftie, uses right hand for computer mice and phone In terms of bracelets and watches, I always wear my watch on my right wrist so everything else (usually just my ace bracelet) goes on my left Link to post Share on other sites
Goonie Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 mostly right hand. there are things i do better with my left. when I get bored in meetings I start taking notes left handed to keep me awake and practice my penmanship Link to post Share on other sites
Tree snake Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I'm ambidextrous but with preferences, I like to write with my right but I eat and drink with my left. I can switch between them but I prefer to do it that way. Link to post Share on other sites
Kappa Sigma Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 I'm mainly left handed but can do somethings right handed, mainly because somethings feel odd to do them left handed. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Right-handed with one pretty major exception: I learned mouse use on my dad's computer (he was a leftie), and can't use the mouse on right for the life of me. Link to post Share on other sites
acemylife Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 I was born left handed but due to the old wives tales and superstition of the region I live in, I was raised to use my right hand. I have horrible handwriting and I really struggle to do some things with my hands Link to post Share on other sites

Karst Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 I'm right-handed, but my left hand seems to be more agile, for want of a better word, than most right-handers'. I can do everything except write and draw with either hand. Link to post Share on other sites
Larkaloke Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Very strongly left-handed. There are one or two things I do with my right hand; mostly using scissors (I had supposedly ambidextrous ones growing up, but they didn't cut as well when held in the left hand) and can openers. I am not good at either task. When I tore my left rotator cuff a few years back I discovered that I can, in fact, barely manage to use a fork properly with my right hand. (I wear my watch on my right hand. Much easier to put on that way, and I don't like having anything on my left wrist. It feels like it gets in the way.) Link to post Share on other sites
