Default Which hand do you use?

Which hand do you use for bathroom duty? I am right-handed and use the left hand. This finding could be an important clue in understanding the complexity of human physiology and psychololy. I understand you might be too embarrassed to post, but you can answer by simply clicking on the poll. The first hand in the poll is the dominant hand. Thanks.

You use your left hand,..... to hold or to swipe?

Red face Can I go back? ~ I've changed my mind ;-)


That’s the last time I answer a poll without reading the first post. Polls should always have a good question first so answers will be more accurate. However something tells me that this thread will not fall into that category of “accurate”.

Using the bathroom,,, I’d try toilet paper first instead of my hand for bathroom duty. That should help with your complexity of human physiology and psychology.

Next,,, it’s more important to know what side of the toilet is the roll of paper hanging. This can also affect your accurate answers to the question. However I think I’m one of a few who are ambidextrous ~ that means if I had two butts I wouldn’t have any trouble with cleaning up with either of my hands or either of my butts.

LOL AksarbeN.

Anyway, I use both hands to pull my pants down, that is unless I got a beer in one hand and I'm a bit tipsy, then I use my right hand to unzip my pants and my right hand and my hips to shake my pants down.

Then I use my right hand to get the toilet paper. UNLESS the paper roll is over and not under, if the TP is over I get pissed because I like it under. So if it's over then I simply rip it from the holder and toss it across the bathroom and pee elsewhere.

If it's a public restroom then I'm doing all this and squatting too.

I'm ambidextrous when I'm wiping the Captain's Poop Deck......but it's more like 70% right/30% left.

Default Which hand do you use

I try not to use my hands, I'd rather just scoot across the carpet like my dog
