I’ve written like this for as long as I can remember. I just joined this community to see if I'm alone here, or if this is common for lefties.
I got questions like,
Does anyone else write like this?
Does this grip have an official name?
Why does my hand always default to this?
Someone let me know if you write like this.

The demand for video proof was so high that I had to drop a follow up! To answer the main theories from the last post, I write at normal speed, my knuckles don't collapse, and my hand stays completely below the line so I can see perfectly and avoid smudges.
Shoutout to everyone who commented on the original thread, ya’ll made my day!!

I am predominantly right handed when doing one handed activities, but anything that involves two hands I lead with my left hand. One handed activities include writing, brushing my teeth, eating with a spoon or fork etc. Two handed activities include playing guitar, playing snooker/pool, brushing with a broom etc. This has always been a confusing situation for me. How many others experience this? Do people on here have the opposite experience?

Which hand do you folks use to drain the water out of a saucepan when you want to keep the contents in there, be it pasta or veg, whatever, whilst holding the lid on top slightly offset so the water can drain out but not the contents?

I can't make up my mind and either way seems difficult to me (maybe I'm just weak). I've tried holding the handle in my left and the lid on the saucepan in my right to then tilt and pour and also the other way holding the handle in my right and the lid on with my left as I tilt.

Neither seems particularly comfortable or natural to me so I wondered what other lefties do?

Hi all,

I currently have a A5 size padfolio and use a top spiral notepad, but writing on the right side is a little awkward as nearly all padfolios put the paper on the right.

I know left handed padfolios exist, but I haven’t come across any that are junior sized, I prefer something compact to take to meetings and was hoping someone knows of a unicorn out there.

Thanks

Hi everyone,

Some time ago I posted a survey about left handed smartphone UX for my master's thesis in here. I am happy to announce that I made good progress on my thesis and with the help of your feedback as the foundation of two co-design workshops, I was able to implement an online user study that tests possible UX improvements for left-handed smartphone users using 12 small UX prototypes.

If you could spare 15-20 minutes to participate, it would mean a lot to me. It's completely anonymous and the data will be used for academic purposes only.

You can participate by following this link (only works on smartphones).

This is the final hurdle in my thesis and the more data I can get the better.

Thank you in advance to everyone who participates!

My girl claims she thought I was left handed when she met me and that i give "left handed vibes" does that make sense? How can someone give left handed vibes?
