^ Not quite bothanded. I write with my left hand but I cannot properly operate most of the tools devised for lefties, so there the right hand would dominate. There are also a few actions where it doesn't make any difference which hand I'm using (e.g. when playing badminton I can use either hand or two rackets at a time. I cannot write properly with my right hand though. So what exactly does that make me?

@Petrie: Southpaw? I never heard of that term used for left handers. :p

I'm right handed, though while I don't remember this, when mom was teaching me to write she noticed that I used both of my hands to write. I looked better with my right hand and I just stayed with that hand her the rest of my life.

HOWEVER, I have tried using my left hand to write recently. It looks like chicken scratch. xD

^ Ambidextrous ;).

As for me, strongly right-handed, though if I ever drive one-handed I do better with my left hand :blink:.

^ Not entirely certain though. Wouldn't being ambidextrous "require" for you to be able to write properly with both hands?

My right hand is slightly more dominant. Had I practised writing with my left hand, it would be almost as good as writing with my right hand.

I'm a righty mostly but there are a few things I can do either both ways or prefer left-handed. E.g. I tend to eat cackhanded (knife and fork the wrong way round :p)

I'm Right-handed. Always have been and alway's will be. :D I've tried to write with my left hand, but it comes out looking like chicken scratch. It's barely ledgible.
