Rightie, but I make a habit of practicing my left hand coordination for boring menial tasks whenever possible, so I'm not awful on the left either.

One day, all ambidextrous and ambisinister people should get together and swap one hand each.

Ambidextrously-non-dexterous.

Actually just found a widely-referenced paper that does indeed support cerebral dominance.

Left hand when arm wrestling and lifting heavy things, right hand for anything else. For some reason my left arm is stronger, even though I mostly use my right arm. Also, my wrist hurts like hell if I arm wrestle with my right arm but if I'm wrestling with my left arm, I can endure for minutes even if I can't beat my opponent. They eventually get tired and give up that way.

Ah, but I'm not left-handed either.

*switches hands and curb stomps Johuotar*
Yeah, I kinda got to do that when I found out I wasn't.
I didn't curb-stomp anyone, though.  :(

If I masturbate with my left hand does that mean I'm left handed?

If so.Yes.

I'm noticing a lot of people are saying that one of their hands are dominant for basic motor skills and physical labors, but they use the other hand for most tasks.

Possibly could be you shifted hands when you started learning how to do stuff. I know that I am heavily shunted to the left: my left eye, hand, foot, arm, leg, and foot all are more developed than my right counterparts. It is incredibly odd.

I wish I were ambidextrous, actually. It seems really neat. But I'm solidly rightie...

It is a learnable skill you know. Just force yourself to do certain things with your left hand until you are as good with them as your right (start with easy tasks, like opening doors or grabbing things). In time you should learn to be more dextrous with your left and eventually can move onto more difficult tasks such as writing.

I'd like to be ambidextrous too but it doesn't seem like it has any other benefits than being totally cool.

Yeah.  It's not natural ambidextrous, and your other hand will never feel the same as your dominant, but you can learn to use both adequately.

Will I be able to write at the same time with my both hands? I wonder if any ambidextrous fellas can do this. I guess it's impossible.

Try drawing circle a triangle with one hand and a circle with the other, at the same time. Pretty damn difficult.

I can't even draw a circle with one hand.
