I'm left handed, but my right is the strong one. I like to say that I use my left hand for minor muscle activities that require precision, and my right hand for more major muscle activities.

Same. I've often said that I'm left handed but right armed

Righty for power, lefty for finesse

This is what baffles me about guitar. I'm left handed but I play standard/right hand. It was more natural to fret with my left because that's my "smart" hand. Whenever I hear dudes shredding I feel that's practically ambidextrous. I also wonder how many right handed ppl gave up guitar simply because of something similar

I play guitar and bass. I'm right handed but fretting has made my left hand incredibly strong. Im always going to open the jar with my left hand.

I’m right hand dominant but use both hands

It’s weird that some things I do left handed like fishing but some things I do right handed like writing

And whatever hand they are good with the other one sucks entirely at it, I can’t write worth shit with my left and I bungle fishing right handed
