He's right handed. They all are. I have a weird habit of watching people and noticing whether they're right handed or left handed :shrug:

I do too,It`s just he writes fast and I never had really noticed:shrug:
 
Maybe hes hexidextris, dunno excatly the word but it means he can write with both hands *I THINK* only what my dad said the other day
 
that'd be ambidextrous... :nerd: I know it, since I am one...
I can write with both, but oddly I write mostly with left, and do about anything else with my right hand... but I can play soccer with both legs aswell...

oh yea, another random point of observation on his hands, Bono usually has his mic in his right hand and his left hand..... :uhoh: well...

Just go watch any random U2 live gig :sexywink:

You can also tell by the guitar. They make seperate guitars for left handed people, with the neck on the right side. Paul McCartney, Jimi Hendrix, and Kurt Cobain are (were) left handed. Though granted, some left handed people learn to play guitar right handed.

Ambidextrous :yes:
But you know, I suppose if you worked on it, it wouldn't be hard to train yourself to write a little with your non-dominant hand, at least enough to sign your name :shrug:

EDIT: GG! Quit posting the same thing as me, right before I get a chance! :madwife:

:ohmy: OMG GG you are my little clone! I can play pool either way too. When you write, do you tilt the paper instead of craning your hand around in that strange position most leftys use?

A really vain and silly party trick you can use to liven up dull gatherings is to demonstrate your ability to write forwards with your left hand and backwards with your right hand at the same time. If you're truly ambidextrous you should be able to do this easily, although the penmanship won't be as good as usual from either hand. There's some fancy scientific explanation for why this works, but I can't remember right now what it is...anyhow, it's apparently one of those things people can either do from the first try or else they can't do it at all, like tongue-rolling or something.

I don't notice what "hand" people are, but do notice "sidedness". The term is not really relevant anywhere but gymnastics. Every person has a dominant side. Unlike ambidextrous writers, I've never met someone who doesn't have a dominant side. Your "sidedness" indicates how you will step out, which way you will twist, how you would fall, etc. Handedness has no significant relationship to sidedness. If your right handed, it doesn't mean you will be right sided, and the other way around. When you spot or coach, you have to constantly be aware of each child's sidedness, or serious injury could result. That's why I can't help but notice. :wink:

I'm a lefty but can write forward with my right and backward with my left at the same time, does that count :D

I can't believe I was actually sad enough to try it.

Actually I can do both, I've just tried - how mega sad is that LOL :lol: :p :rolleyes:

I can roll my tongue too :rolleyes:
