Don't think, just do this: Clasp your hands together, fingers interlocking, like you're patiently waiting. Now, which thumb is on top, right or left?

I wonder if there's a correlation between this and handedness? Left thumb, right handed.

nope... 'cuz I'm left-thumb, and left-handed

right thumb....right-handed

Hey, who stole my "missing hands" line? :) Left thumb, right handed.

I'm all thumbs.

left thumb, right handed. *** reality, that's a good answer! Bravo!

It feels wrong whenever I try it. When I clasp my hands with either thumb on top it feels bad, less so with my left on top. What I usually do is have my finger-tips touch and the heels of my hands touch-sort of like I'm praying..

But I was hanging upside down when I did it...

I did it without thinking, and the left thumb is on top. When I switch and put my right thumb on top, it doesn't feel right. I am right handed.

...and this indicates, what?

Right thumb, left handed. But when I try it with my feet, my left toe is on top.

My right thumb was on top. (They say that's a sign of genius)

I am a man, a man with four fingers... but that's doesn't count my thumb.

I'm left-handed--left thumb is on top.

bill: there is absolutely no other possibility
you're missing the point. it's a song lyric. sorry. I was being insular and clever with Bill

Why ask this?

I can't answer because my thumbs are steepled(the prints are touching), neither is over the other. **as a followup, daver wandered by and asked me to demonstrate.. if it matters, the index finger of my left hand ends up as the topmost finger, but the thumbs are still steepled.. *** I am missing the point

My right, and coincidentaly I am right handed.

When practicing yoga poses that require clasped hands, it is important to switch the clasping, so as not to habitually favor just one way.

Left, and I'm left-handed (which of course, means I am somewhat ambidextrous in this right-dominated world!)

This shows the right-left brain coordination and ratio right?

Doesn't this mean something....?

Left, I'm right handed. What's the point of this?

okay...right. Which means...

i'm left thumbed, and right handed....should there be a correlation?

***ok, apparantly little if any correlation. as of 8/31/98, 5 users have same thumbness and handedness, 7 have opposite.

Well, you done it: I'm waiting for the explanation!
