I can do the Vulcan salute with my left hand only. Am I really right-handed?

If you don’t know what the Vulcan salute is:

And unlike Leonard Nimoy’s, my fingers line up perfectly.

But I do everything else with my right hand. I can’t do anything else with my left.

And no, I’m not trolling. I’m genuinely interested in what you all think.

You’re ambidextrous.

You’re right-handed.

C. You're an alien.

But seriously, I don't have enough scientific data to make any sure claims. But I do believe that handedness is a result of the brain's hemispheric task assignment, whilst the ability to move certain limbs, tendons, and whatever in a certain way is all superficially physical.

[BassistForever]

The left hand is naturally more dextrous and suited for things like the Vulcan hand salute. That's why when you play guitar, you finger all the chords with your left hand because it requires a lot more movement and positioning when you're right handed. So you're right handed.

I didn't know that/ Thank you.

i dont think that has anything to do with which hand is your dominant one. I can do the vulcan salute with both hands. im right handed. nothing to analyse.
live long and prosper!

I can't do it at all with either hand. If I spread my fingers, I have to hold my ring finger and my pinky together by force. Ad it feels like something will pop out of place when I do, haha.

Why when: Vulcan salute in 2 hands < Vulcan salute with 1, scissors with the other?

I've never been a fan of StarTrek but I gave it a try just for you. I'm right handed and can easily do it with both hands. I play the piano though so I have good finger strength and flexibility. Have you ever inured your weaker hand?

[evenlift]

Thanks.

No never injured.

Can you not separate your fingers on your right hand? Maybe you are simply not as flexible in your right hand as you are in your left.

[evenlift]

I can but nowhere near far enough to do the salute. Whereas it's easy with my left.

[sean1234]

I guess I stand by what I said about your right hand not being as flexible as the left.

[SandPlanet]

You're a left-handed Vulcan and a right-handed Earthling.

[BCRanger10]

No. It means that you're a Romulan and you must therefore die!

[still_waiting]

I can do it with both... I think most people can right?

[RedThread]

I'm right handed and can only do it with my left hand. I'm still right handed.

[evenlift]

Interesting!

[TheyCallMeMacDaddyG]

I don't know but may you live long and prosper. :P

[CommieDearest]

Your whole life has been a lie.

[evenlift]

[CommieDearest]

Truth hurts.

Maybe you're both left and right handed
