BarefootDawsy Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 I just read an interesting article that suggests that the percentage of left-handed barefoot runners is higher than the usual average. This got me wondering if the same holds true for nerds....so let's do a poll! BAREFOOT DAWSY Scout Commander (ret.) Link to comment

bigm141414 Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 Left handed all the way. We're genetically superior you know. I read it in a book "Pull the bar like you're ripping the head off a god-damned lion" - Donny Shankle Link to comment

Caution Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 I write with my right hand but draw with my left mostly. Sometimes I switch it up, but when I was in grade school I was forced to write right handed because the teachers made me. My Current Challenge Link to comment
BarefootDawsy Posted August 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 What about ambidextrous people? Don't wanna leave them outHa! I knew it wouldn't be long until someone asked this Even ambidextrous folk tend to favour one hand or the other, so we'll go with that.Incidentally, my grandfather was ambidextrous, my son is a lefty and I'm a righty (though I'm goofy-footed)....got the whole spectrum covered in my family BAREFOOT DAWSY Scout Commander (ret.)

MegaCarp Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 Can I boycott this poll since God never gave me a choice? (although as long as my batteries are charged I'm getting better at writing lefty) Link to comment
Razor Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 Lot of lefties in this thread. My grandfather and father are both lefties, so I'm the rebel.I write with my right hand, I throw right handed, swing righty, and shoot right handed. My pimp slap is a southpaw though.Incedentally though, my left hand is much more nimble and sensitive than my right, and the fingers have a much better range of motion.

Ghost Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Left handed, but for some reason right is better at a lot of things.Also right eye dominant. Stronger right side, right foot kicker. Link to comment
leadchipmunk Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 A lot of ambi people are/were also originally lefties that had it taught out of them at school.I'm mostly a righty, but I'm left footed and I take a southpaw stance around 80% of the time when I get in a fighting stance. Oh, also left eyed and slightly more accurate pistol shooter with my left hand (though I can't control the recoil as much).

Lefeux Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 I am ambidextrous (breaking your left arm will do that) but I favor my left hand for writing, eating, shooting, and fighting, but bat and throw right handed.

realbrickwall Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 I'm right-handed, but I perform some tasks better with my left hand (throwing, for instance.

andygates Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Yo leftie. Even though Evil Miss Lewthwaite made me sit on my left hand and write with my right, my sinister side won through (incredibly precise penmanship with the left; drunk child in a washing machine with my right). Now, are lefties somehow more into weird sport gear? Are we into barefoot running? Or are we into niche subcultures like our lefty one? Link to comment
Lachy Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 I'm lefty, but I broke it when I was about 6 quite badly, ended up with my left wrist out of commission for about 6 months, and I learnt to do a bunch of stuff right handed, like play tennis with my right hand. I use a knife and fork like rightys, but I use a spoon lefty. Battle Log - Facebook Link to comment
Grubby Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 Lefty here, but I pretty darn ambidextrous. Can pitch, bat, shoot guns, play basketball, etc all right handed. Link to comment
