Am I Left-handed or Right-handed? 23andWe Wants to Know.

by Andrew Meyer on July 10, 2008

Why does 23andWe want to know? It’s for their featured research project titled “Handedness”.

According to 23andMe, little is known about why people become left-handed or right-handed. They think they can help the science community figure out what genetic component is linked to handedness by polling the 23andMe community and comparing their answers against their genetic data.

Here are the questions I was asked for the Handedness survey:

Questions 1-3:

handedness

Questions 4-6:

handedness2

Questions 7-9:

handedness3

Questions 10-12:

handedness4

It’s no surprise that my 23andWe results tell me I’m “Pure right-handed“:

handedness results

And, now I raise my right fist in salute to right-hand power.

See this post over at The Spittoon for more on the interesting lefties vs righties battle.

  • Right-hand power? You know the lefties are gonna revolt, I'd play nice.
