Lefty Righty

Do you have a favorite hand that you use in your day to day life for fine motor coordination and power.

Ditto.

Left hand is pretty useless for fine motor stuff.

Cheers
Mick

BTW Epi get enough info here and you can write a paper on which handedness is most common in computer geeks!

Action research.

Epidemic- I read somewhere that baby becomes lefty/righty/ambidextrous(uses both hands) depending not on genetics/inherited stuff but what baby watches and sees.

The report said that baby will become lefty if encouraged and sees her mom as a lefty.

I don't believe it because I wanted one of my boys to be a lefty ( to balance out the family) and practically forced it on the errr....rat but he refused to use his left hand.

Thought you'd be interested.

Genetics IMO.

I think ambidextrous might be learned. But even the ambi folks really do have a preference. Just are more coordinated with the spastic hand than most.

As a righty FPS player with several years of joystick and mouse control I must say that I can do the same thing with out a problem. I always used the joystick righty while aiming mouse left.

Folks we gots a lefty here should we activate the PLAN.

Well, this kitty is a lefty. I am not quite sure what makes a left or right handed person. I know that both me and my sis are left handed, and both parents are right handed.
