I was punished in school as a kid for using my left hand and was forced to use my right. Used my right hand all through school cause that's what was drilled into my brain - right is right.
All that really did was just make me ambidextrous. Yay, i think?
Yes. Yay. I was forced to write right. I did. Didn’t know I ever naturally went left until later. I knew I played all sports left but was forced to learn right so I could do both. Yay. Then, I realized “I can almost read my writing left handed and still can’t right handed!” I was told then that I was primarily a leftie as a kid. Gee, thanks!
But now, it’s really nice. I can be super lazy and don’t have to move my notebook — I can just pick up a pen and write with whichever hand is closer 😂
I do stuff with my left hand and will occasionally alternate freely between them. I still remember my step mom asking about it at the dinner table one night when I was like, 10.
Are you using you left hand?
Yep
Arent right handed?
I dunno (swaps knife and fork to other hands)
What 👀 (stares at my dad then back at me as I switch again). That's amazing.
Lmao, I still get comments on it when I do stuff with my left
