I’ve coached junior basketball for 10 years and on average 1 player out of a team of 8 or 9 is left hand dominant, so the percentages seem to stack up.

Many - and I’m not sure the exact number- of our American presidents are left-handed. My understanding is that left handed people adapt to change faster and easier than right handed people. I am somewhat ambidextrous- where does that lie in this equation?

I'm a lefty. I've always been great at math and have great writing and drawing skills. Learning to play guitar but find it pretty difficult. drums came easier. I'm a lefty but bat and kick righty

I remember like 1st and 2nd grade my teachers slapping my hand with a ruler and forced me to write right handed as soon as they walked away I went back to being a south paw

I’m a lefty. As are my husband, my son and his fiancé, both my best friends, both my grandfathers and two of my five brothers. Also, I’m the only female on either side of my family that is a lefty. I always tell people that I’m a lefty collector.

My belated oldest brother was a left handed, I’m ambidextrous, only bc I trained myself to write with both hands, in case I were to ever get seriously injured in a car accident or by some other means. And it paid off bc a few years ago I had a very bad stroke while sleeping one evening and during my sleep I was awoken to having a terrible violent stroke. But I was determined to pull myself out of this situation and exercise my upper and lower extremities bc I was Paralyzed on one side of my body. Anyways, i managed to regain my speech, the ability to walk and the ability to use my hand and arm again. I am walking and talking and using both hands. I’m ambidextrous and proud of it. And I’m sure due to my stroke and training myself at an early age to use both hands in case one should need to that a lot of you would agree?.
