    Both my parents are right handed, my brother and I are also right handed.
    Though, I can play hockey using either my left or right hand.

    I'm right handed and so are my parents.

    My left side is stronger though.

    My parents are both right handed; I'm mainly right handed but arguably ambidextrous in some areas.

    Everyone in my family is right handed but i'm ambidextrous, with a preference for left handed writing but thats it. While i may be 'better' at certain things with a certain hand, i can use either pretty effectively.

    I am the ONLY ambidextrous person in my family on both sides, including all cousins, aunts, uncles, etc. My dad is the only leftie.

    A lot of people don't seem to know you can't do everything with both hands.

    I play guitar, right, and play softball with my right hand ONLY. I have never had a base hit left handed......ever.

    I play Ice Hockey, Martial Arts and uh....stuff I can't mention with my left hand. lol

    I am the only left-handed person in a family of right-handed people. They all made such a HUGE deal of my being a southpaw it's probably the most crucial component of my personal identity.
