I’m right-handed but I mostly use my left for things like opening doors, picking up stuff, using phone, holding food… and my right hand for things that requires fined dexterity like writing, using utensils, using keys… My friends see me using my left-hand most of the time and kept asking me why I barely use my right hand. Some people who met for the first time actually thought that I’m left-handed for some reason.

Is it really that weird to not use your dominant hand as much? I’m sure I’m not born left-handed and trained to be right-handed when I was small, I’ve been right-handed for as long as I can remember.

    I’m right handed.

    Shoot guns left handed because my left eye is better.

    Fishing, when I was a child I had to learn how to reel left and cast right handed but at the time reeling with the right hand seemed more natural.

    Shoot basketballs right handed but I used to practice with my left hand nonstop because I felt that most people only had one handed games, if you could drive to left or right right of the hoop, many times people asked me if I was lefty.
