I don’t mean Ambidextrous!

Yesterday I tried cutting a vegetable with the knife in my non-dominant hand and it was a weird and uncomfortable thing. I wonder if there are people who have that distinct discomfort of using your “bad” hand, but on both hands?

I don’t think it would fall under ambidexterity, because that kinda implies someone is comfortable with either hand, but could someone be uncomfortable with both?

    right handed hammer, screwdriver.

    A what now?

    I’ve been a carpenter for over thirty years, but I’ve never heard of or seen such a thing, and I can’t even imagine what one would look like. Hammers and screwdrivers are (generally) bilaterally symmetrical.

      They are saying they personally use their right hand for the hammer and screwdriver, but used the handedness of the scissors instead of just saying their left hand.

        Then, they should learn to write more clearly because that arrangement of words does not convey that message.

          It was pretty easy to figure out from the context and didn’t need someone who doesn’t know how commas work to get all snarky.

            White-knighting for a rando over poor grammar? Wow, Lemmy really is just like Reddit!
