Bi-cerebral, that is.


I bowl and throw righty, golf (poorly) left handed, and although more comfortable batting lefty, seem to hit better right handed.


But my brain is super well wired. Maybe.

Small but sweet revenge for all of who were forced to use your blasted scissors and can openers.

Yeah!! Take THAT!!!

I do everything lefty, except shoot long guns, and use scissors, snips, etc.

There were no lefty scissors when I was growing up, and all the rifles I tried were righty, too.

Handguns I do shoot left-handed.

I'm definitely at least a "bi", and possibly a frustrated Leftie.

I write, eat, [Invis-O-Text™: ON]wipe, pick my nose (but not before washing in between)[Invis-O-Text™: OFF], cut, and throw right-handed, and my right foot is the more adroit foot.

On the other hand, I am strongly left-eyed, and reach, catch, dial, and tie my shoes left-handed.

Two of my four kids are lefties - both of them absolutely so. Of the other two, my eldest always batted left handed and kicks with her left foot dominant in her preferred sport of soccer.

All of which is odd, because both hubby and I are absolutely right handed - no arguments or equivocations. The closest leftie relations we have are my brother and my Grandpa.

One thing I noticed about my kids and their development is that my leftie two (the two younger ones) showed their hand preference VERY early, by 18 months they were using the dominant hand with an obvious preference.

The contrast was my two right handers, who were not showing real preference almost until kindergarten.

I haven't noticed any cognitive differences among them. My eldest is tone deaf, so no musical ability there, and she has my math skills (we're hoping she gets a job in the soft sciences or the world is doomed). My second child is a math whiz who is teaching herself algebra at age 8. My #3 daughter is 6 and a year ahead in school and VERY quick to learn, but not artistic in any way, shape, or form. My son is not ready for reading instruction yet (he's 3, will be four next month), although my girls were ready to start Teach Your Child to Read at his age, but he recognizes numbers letters already.

Interesting, afw, I wonder what made them lefties, then?

I always wanted to be ambidextrous but after a few half-hearted attempts realized I was too lazy and would have to have my right hand in a cast to succeed.
