Does writing with your left hand make you left handed, or, as in my case,
since I’m basically right-handed predominant except for writing (and who
writes anymore, anyway) would I be considered right-handed?
|
If you saw that a baseball was about to smack you in your noggin from
directly in front of you, would you catch/deflect it with your left or right
hand? (Assuming, of course, that simple dodging was not an option).
|
Hmm, I feel like I would block with my left hand/arm, but I am probably
right handed (I used to mix hands for some tasks, less so now). Of course
without a reflex test, who knows. I wonder though if you would tend to block
with your off hand reflexively protecting your more valuable dominant hand?
|
Well, it’s clear that you and Purple Dave have thought about this more
carefully than I did. Shame on me for coming up with a weak example!
Dave!

Since you are admittedly baseball-knowledge challenged, I will tell you that if
you are right handed, you’d probably attempt to catch/deflect the ball with your
left hand (the hand that would normally wear the baseball glove). The right
hand (dominant) is used for throwing.
