After more than 20 years of operating the mouse with my right hand, have started using my left hand for this. Initially difficult, but steadily progressing.

the right hand keeps the cat off the keyboard!

Thank you, captain obvious. 
Studies also suggest that 77% of all statistics are made up on the spot.

There are certain things I'm doing with right, like writing (with pen); others with both, like writing (on keyboard) and eating, and drawing; a few i'm doing with left, like driving...

I use just three fingers, left hand, maximum, my index finger,and the third finger, for all the keys, thumb for the space bar. Right hand on the right shift, for Enter, Shift, CTRL, ALT, and backspace. I never thought anyone would type with the right hand, turns out there are around 70% who use right hand to code!

My left hand occasionally hits TAB, SPACE, SHIFT, CTRL, or A -- that's about it. Everything else is right-hand. Oh, and I use the left to dial the phone.

I always use the mouse with my left hand. That means I can type either with both or just my right hand; it's usually both. Whichever it is, typing is just a one finger operation for me.

Interesting to know that being right handed and using left hand for mouse 
|
|
|
|

I just found that was the most productive way to do it. It was so disruptive to just use the right hand.

Same here: Right handed, but using he mouse with the left hand for productivity reasons.
I have even managed to convince 5-6 other people of the benefits of this approach.

I am right handed, but I also taught myself to use a mouse with my left. I switched several years ago because it was more convenient for some games. I have since switched back over and started to use the mouse with the right again. Many of the newer games default the movement keys to WASD instead of the arrow keys. I have found this to be a good compromise because I preferred using my right hand for mousing for everything else besides games.

I too am right handed but a left handed mouse user with the buttons swapped so the right button is the primary click. Drives people nuts when they try to use my machine.
My dad is left handed and left mouse user but doesn't swap the buttons. Screws me up when I try to use his machine.

For some reason I didn't bother to swap the buttons round. Probably because I never even thought about it. It's been so long now.

I write left.. Most things I first picked up in a right-handed fashion I will continue to use right handed (mouse), though due to the layout of my desk I've switched to lefthanded mouse (I don't invert buttons though, I switch back to righthanded sometimes).
So I play darts.. that's left handed.. ditto for billiards.. However, bowling is right handed... and I usually win arm wrestles on my right as well... go figure!
When I'm wrenching, using power tools, etc, I'm pretty ambidextrous.. I'm just not ambidextrous in enough things to consider myself such.

Good heavens!! You must have a hell of a job making up your mind about anything.

It's pretty simple actually.. anything overhand is left, underhand is right 
Don't know why I'm wired that way.. Man upstairs must have had a little much mead when he wired me

I was told I was left handed at school but the only thing I left handed is write, pretty much everything else is right handed, playing bass, eating...

My brother and I are both lefties. We do most 'large' actions like batting and punchin' suckas with the right. I know lots of lefties like that.

I'm right handed with writing and playing guitar but left handed with hockey sticks, golf clubs and baseball bats...
|
|
|
|
|
Only writing with right in my use. For that reason I use know also the mouse right.
So I am "reverse" sided to you.

I'm mostly right handed but do some things left handed. Like shooting a rifle, I kept getting told I need to put it on my right shoulder. Nope couldn't do that like you are supposed to do when right handed. I shoot fine left handed fine  Lots of other little things I catch myself using my left hand for... But as far as writing and have the most strength I'm right handed.

Have you done the test for dominant eye? Bet your left eye is dominant. Hold up your hands making a circle and look through it with both eye open. Then close one eye and then the other. The view with one eye will be mostly just the same as when you were using both, that is your dominant eye.

Never really thought about that. Might right eye is my lazy eye. Left eye is 20/20, right is bad. So I use left eye for things like shooting and such.
