Join the club. I consider myself ambidextrous; my left eye is dominant for shooting and such...

Join the club? Son, I am a founding member of that mess.

I remember the frustration of being forced to use my right hand only back in the 60's
It wasn't until I entered the Army I had to "give in" and use my left hand as I never could throw right handed (grenade training scared everyone around me till I gave in and used my left )

Oh, I'm left-handed too, I'm in my late forties and even back in my day my father wanted to beat that out of me and my sister (my mother put a stop to that). My brother's the only "normal" (right handed) one in the house.

My grandfather had that problem at school, back when left-handed people were supposed to be witches. He was forced to learn to use his right hand. Many years later, when he had a stroke and lost use of his right hand, he returned to using his left.

I'm always annoyed by people who assume left-handed people have some kind of debilitating disability. Some even assume we can't use the right hand at all like it's paralyzed or something. In 56 years I never had a situation where I needed any special accommodation because I have a dominant left hand. I can use the same tools as everyone else.

Really? I'd love to see you try to tighten a three sided corvallis bolt with a right handed obknocker.

Actually, as my wife is right handed when working on something technical (say the automobile) we tend to trade off, she can't quite reach THAT bolt while the support nut is more into her bailiwick than mine. Then her being Southern Baptist and me being a witch (Athena), we have interesting conservation's with certain mundanes.

"We want to talk to you about GOD" they start.

"Really? Which one?" we reply.

Jaws hitting the floor, dark black evil books following quickly.

Amazing how this utterly barbaric and totally unfounded practice continued for so long (Still does?), isn't it?
I 'Enjoyed' the same loving, understanding, scientifically justified corporal punishment from the psychotic penguins (Catholic School), though Momma (A devout Catholic), never had any problem with me using my DOMINANT HAND (ie Left) while doing homework/anything OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL. Hell, the penguins even knew when I'd used my left hand (Better penmanship, slightly different slant to the letters, esp. if cursive), and met out punishment if I turned in homework deemed 'Offensive.'

One of many reasons I flipped the proverbial 'Bird' to that Indoctrination Program when I reached 9th Grade.

Never regretted one second of it!
