    I am left handed, the only difference it makes to my kilt wearing is where I put my sgian dubh, when wear it.
    I know what you mean about "right" handed people doing things funny.

    I'm left handed for writing but ambidextrous for most other things and it doesn't have any effect on my kilt wearing at all!

    Funnily enough I can't use scissors with my left hand though!

    Me Too!

    I've been a lefty since birth.

    A first grade teacher tried to tape a pencil to my right hand but that lasted a few days until the day I wore it home from school. My Mom was P***ED! that teacher was told to never do that again!

    My absolute joy in life is to watch right handed people try to use my left handed Fiskars scissors! Now they feel my pain growing up!

    True left handed scissors have the upper and lower blades reversed so that you are putting pressure/torque against the cutting edges to make a clean cut. A right handed person is taking the pressure away from the cutting edge, making it harder to even just cut something!

    I shoot both right or left depending(Edited to prevent thread from going into the penalty box), I golf(shank/hook/slice) left, waterski left leg forward (if that makes sense?!?) paint the house ambi, shoot/throw balls left (when my shoulder cooperates), play guitar right.

    I use both fists to pound on the computer keyboard, however.
