Ambidexterity

Ambidexterity is the ability of being equally adept with each hand (or to a limited degree, feet)

While ambidexterity can be learned, most people still gravitate towards performing certain types of tasks with a specific hand. The degree of versatility with each hand is generally the qualitative factor in determining a person's ambidexterity.

In modern times, it is more likely to find people considered ambidextrous who were originally left handed, and learned to be ambidextrous either deliberately or during childhood by indoctrination[?] through institutions such as schools where right-handed habits are often emphasized.
