Ambidextrous

The word “ambidextrous” is derived from the Latin roots ambi, meaning “both,” and dexter, meaning “right” (as opposed to left) or favorable. Thus, “ambidextrous” is literally “right on both sides”.
it is the state of being equally adept in the use of both right and left appendages (such as the hands).
Ambidexterity is often encouraged in activities requiring a great deal of skill in both hands, such as juggling, swimming, percussion or keyboard music, word processing, surgery, body boxing, and combat.
the reson why i am stating this here is I am one among them.
I searched for more info in this topic.
one page says Michelangelo, Fleming, Einstein and Tesla were all ambidextrous. Benjamin Franklin was also ambidextrous and signed the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution with his left hand. [link]
and also it is a great thing.
but in another page i found an article titled “Ambidextrous People” are Brain-Damaged. This is actually worth reading.

Anyway no doubt, it is very advantageous for me to have the ability to use my both sides of brain, hands etc. with equal ease.
