Anyone here both-handed?

Okay, I'm assuming a majority of you guys here at right-handed, and a less amount of people left-handed. I dunno. But the question is, is anyone here both-handed? (As in, writing, other stuff, etc.)

I'm actually learning a bit to write left-handed. It's damn hard alright. It's kinda good I assume to use both hands because it uses both sides of the brain.

When I use a big pen like a whiteboard marker for example, I'm awesome at my left-handed writing. It's a bit similiar to my right-handed writing - however, a standard pen, it's a bit hard!

Im not too bad, im not a ambidexterous person from birth, but if i have to I can use my left hand to perform most tasks. I am sort of odd in that im contralateral (only 4% of people), right handed, however my dominant leg is my left leg. Which is useful in sports, but neropsychology tells us that language skills (particularly the ability to interprate and learn languages) will be a lot harder for me...

Anyone that's a right-handed shooter and uses his/her left eye must have skills lol.

i can hammer with both hands, get the chissle set up or have some1 to hold it and i can use both hands to hammer it.

did that just yesterday using a chissle to cut some glue and sand off of a transformer, a 5gal bucket of copper will bring 280$-290$ where i am.

can shoot with ither hand.

can write with ither hand .

i can also read backwards and upside down but that isnt being ambradextrious.

saying it a wast of time to learn to use both hands doesnt work with some jobs, if ya right handd get tired you better use left hand or ya will get fired, thats where i learned to shovel with both hands and hammer with both hands, would have worked great with the old chissle type drills and drill hammer.

I wish I could hammer with both hands. I'd probably beat the hell out of my right hand if I were to hammer with my left

I switch hands every now and then so one of my arms doesn't get bigger than the other.

because of certain birth defects with my hands i'm pretty much ambidextrous

write left handed
swing a golf club right handed
shoot a gun left handed
swing a hammer right OR left handed
swing a bat right handed
play pool right handed
play the drums right handed
kick right handed
if i were to box i would lead with my left though ..

i feel like i'm left handed .. like if i wanted to go pick something up i would probably use my left hand .. but i think it would be the weirdest thing in the world to shoot a gun right handed .. then again it would be weird as hell swinging a golf club left handed..

baseball was never much a sport for me cause i'm not really comfortable swinging a bat either way .. and if i wanted to catch a ball i'd use my left but i could use my right (with a mit) but theres no way i can throw a ball right handed

duno .. i never learned how to use my hands like anyone else .. so i'm pretty unique .. theres not a damn thing i can't do though .. i type 90 words per minute still heh ..

and i lawl'd at spazz.

I reckon anyone accurate at firearms that's left-eyed and is right-handed (or the other way around) are pretty good marksmen.
