Poll question: Lefty or righty ? |
|
Yes I am going to waste one of my posts today on a totally inconsequential poll. I just gotta know though. So here it is are you left handed or right handed?

10. You forgot those of us who are both! |
|
I write right handed but do absolutely everything else left handed. Think I was actually left handed from birth but kindergarten teacher wouldn't let me write with my left hand - probably explains my sucky handwriting.
Anyway - Barack supporter and so is my left-handed husband

11. Either left-handers are much more likely to be both Obama supporters and DUers, |
|
or Obama supporters are more likely to miss the "handedness" part and say "YA IM LIBARAL I VOTE LEFTY."

I find it hard to believe 40% of DU is left-handed, thats 3 to 4 times more than the population at large.

20. lefthanded people are way more likely to answer handedness questions... |
|
... and to notice other people's handedness. Because righthanded people are such an overwhelming majority, they have adapted the entire human environment to the default orientation -- and so from their point of view, there's nothing noteworthy about any of this.

23. I hadn't considered that |
|
I think I didn't make the handedness part blatant enough though so I will include that in the next one. I find it hard to believe that the distribution of lefty versus righty is that close here, but I do find it interesting either way.

I am not completely lefty or righty. I write with my right hand and fire a rifle righthanded, but I bat, throw, shoot a hockey stick, swing a golf club, play tennis, etc left handed.
I suspect that I'm a lefty who was taught to write with the wrong hand. Anyone who has seen my "handwriting" would probably concurr.
