When You Fold Your Hands, Which Thumb is on Top?

[Fraxinus]

Simple question. I'm just curious. Most people, when trying to do it the other way, will find it uncomfortable and unnatural. There's said to be a hereditary involvement in which thumb goes on top.

Mandy has made everyone who has read this thread title fold their hands.

When I fold my hands, the right thumb goes on top. It feels better than having my left them on top.

My left thumb goes on top..always.

Left on top, always. I never heard that was hereditary, that's interesting.

This poll is multiple choice.

This poll is multiple choice.

I am aware, you silly Groose. =P There is also the possibility that a person can comfortably fold his or her hands either way. Which is why I have it set as multiple choice.

Totally didn't just fold my hands

Anyway it happens to be left thumb like this man...

Either way for me.

Hmm. I think left.
That's what I did without thinking about it. Neither way feels too weird though.

This is a weird subject but okay lol, my left thumb always goes on top because I have this subconscious need to make my right hand feel safe.

Is anyone else starting to wonder, based on the results, if people who are right-handed are more likely to put their left thumb on top? Right now it's an 80/30 split left/right, and handedness has a similar split, although with the majority being right-handed.

My left, apparently

I'd never thought about this before just now. Apparently, it's my left. I tried doing it with my right thumb and it felt uncomfortable. I find that interesting since I'm right-handed. Hrm...

 

[purplelink]

my left thumb is on top

Left, right just feels... weird.
