YES, I was the same way.

Yeah, I'm a lefty too...

When I write, I have to turn my paper to a 45 degree angle to write up and down (it's really weird). Otherwise, I would get ink on the side of my palm (when I used an inkpen). But pretty much everything else is right handed, so I'm lucky!

See? Explain this to me! How does this work, this 45 degree magic you speak of?

Oh man, i hate math class... my left hands gets silver... and people in the next class are like.. "OMG what did u do?'. But i have real neat handwritting.... til it all gets smeared

and im the ONLY one on BOTH sides of the family for every down the line that is lefty

I'm not left-handed but EVERY guy that I've ever dated has been.

Most of them have been engineers so they did the hand/wrist at an angle thing to avoid smearing/smudging their handwriting and not getting the side of their hand dirty.

My daughter is left-handed, but can do a lot of things with her right hand (eat, use scissors, etc.). Her father and I are both right-handed, so I guess she fell into the 2% category (chances that she would become left-handed). I wouldn't change anything about her writing abilities. She's also a great artist. :D

My nephew started off as a lefty, but my sister forced him to be a righty. However, when he played little league baseball, he would always hit from his left side - perhaps some latent lefty tendencies still remained with him.

Met a guy on a bar yesterday, and I could guess right away he was a southpaw - he was wearing his wrist watch on his right wrist. When I asked him about this, he took it by surprise. If you're a southpaw, do you wear your watch on your left, or right wrist?

I wear mine on right wrist, simply because then if I write or do anything with my left hand, I won't get tangled doing something :)

Long live the southpaws ;)

My 9-year old daughter is a southpaw. Her dad and I (both right handed) knew that she would be a lefty since she was able to sit up. We would put an object on her right side, and she would reach over with her left hand and pick it up! Each and every time!

I caught her sitter switching her spoon to her right side one day, (because I forgot something in the house and came back to retrieve it) and told her that she was more comfortable using her left hand, so don't change it.

She is a lefty through and through! She writes, eats, brushes her teeth, etc. and everything else with her left hand. She even kicks a ball with her left foot.

Fortunately, there are more things out now for left handed people. She even has her own left-handed ruler! :)

I wear my watch on my right hand as well. :)

I wear my watch on my left wrist, as does my left handed husband.

Y'all sho' is normal to be left handed. The lefties I know IRL are kind of out in...leftfield.

Anyways, I'm a righty and still out in leftfield. :D

I'm a lefty! The only one in my family - not my parents, grandparents, either side of relatives...I guess I'm just in that abnormal 2%!
I hate the lefty desks, never use them. I like being able to prop my right elbow up on the desk and lean on it while still being able to take notes.
I tried to use one of those left-handed computer mice but that just didn't work right.
I still write all curled over the paper, at a 45 deg. angle, but I still always seem to get ink smudged all over my left hand.
I wear my watch on my right wrist: it feels more natural there. I also can't stand to wear rings on my left hand. Guess I'm going to have to get over that one if I ever get engaged/married.
Playing sports, I can never seem to figure out if I am left- or right- handed/footed, so I just switch off depending on what feels best at the time. Drives my opponents crazy. :D

I'm not left-handed, but I've always had left-hand tendencies.

WOO HOO GO LEFTIES!!!!!! WE ARE ALWAYS IN OUR RIGHT MIND (or so we tell people)!!!!!
I never have liked left handed scissors though! Plus finding stuff for us is never easy and when I do its always twice as high in price GRRRR.:mad:

Thank you!!! I am not the only one who understands the 45 degree angle thing!! It's even worse at one of those desks that are for right handed people...
