I'm not ambidextrous.. I write and play tennis right handed. But I play cricket left handed, anyone?
I asked my local G.P years ago, and he had no answers just "mmmm interesting".
The only thing I can come up with is that I badly fractured my right wrist when I was very young and it was cast for quite a long time?
regards
fbi :-)

| cairina.moschata answers: There's nothing odd about you, it's me! Up til the age of five I used knife and fork in opposite hands. In cricket I bowl right handed and bat left, in golf I play left, in tennis/ badminton/ squash I play, mainly, right but can swap rather than play backhand. I unscrew things with my left hand and if I make a cup of tea I use either hand, whichever is nearer to sugar/milk/etc.

| beeper_spryte answers: my brother has dyslexia, and he did the fork and knife in opposite hands thing too - because the right hemisphere was bigger than the left hemisphere (of his brain) in some activities, he was right-side dominant, and in others, left-side dominant.
it could just be an idiosyncratic uniqueness you possess rather than something wrong ;) 3 years ago / reply

| Logicalawyer answers: I still prefer to have the fork in my right hand, now days it doesn't make any difference unless your at a formal dinner, its an old school habit which was needed when meat for much dryer and firmer to cut which is why the knife was on the right hand.
