random i know. im bored. sorry.
what hand do you hold you book/magazine with when you read it.
right or left. ima right handed dude

_________________
you suck

I switch off, but I use my left more often.

I usually lay the book down on something and just alternate hands to keep the pages from flipping.

I'm partial to my feet, if my right shoulder is out of commission.

Same here.

_________________

I tend to hold my book in my right hand if I'm in a spate of holding-books-with-one-hand... ing, so I can turn pages with my dominant left hand. But usually I lay my book down on something or hold it in both hands.

There, now don't you feel better?

I totally want one of these.

_________________

I like reading books the best laying down--so i lay on my left side and hold with my right hand when reading the right sided pages, then i roll over when i get to the end of the page.
Yeah, I know. When I read normally (and not as comfortably) I hold it with either hand, or often both.

Well, it depends on what I'm reading. Whether it reads left to right, or right to left.

I usually don't hold the book when it reads right to left--I lay it on the table so I can have my Hebrew dictionary in one hand. Amarta B'iyvrit, Ramrod?

Ummmm, I'm Catholic.

I was talking about things like Manga, which reads right to left.

_________________

Am I the only one who uses both hands? I usually read laying down...

I hold books with two hands, but if I hold with one, it's usually my left.

Hmm, I just held a book to test.

I typically hold the left side of the book with my left side, and I hold it at the bottom of the page, halfway between the binding and the edge. With my right hand I hold the right side, on the right side of the book and about two-thirds of the way down. I switch positions a lot, though, but I usually use both hands.

Me too! Ok, result:
I use my right hand to hold it, and use my left hand to flip the pages.

So I'll vote right

I do that too. *points up* Now, however, due to my craving for pointless items, I really want a Thumb Thing.

There, now don't you feel better?

I usually either prop it up on something or use both hands. For instance, right now I'm attempting to read a compilation of Jules Verne's works while typing this post. It's propped up on my legs and the desk.

(A narwhal? WHO WOULD'VE KNOWN, HUH?)

_________________

You, my friend, are not alone, I use both, if I use one thought, it's normally my left... But I don't read while lying down...

_________________

Hey! I do that sometimes too! I also use the edge of my desk to keep the pages flat...

When I use only one, I use my right hand.

Clicky:

I use both. I thought most people did...I flip with my right thumb, obviously, unless I'm reading manga, in which case I flip with my left.

But seriously, there needs to be a "both" option here.

Being Catholic doesn't mean you couldn't know Hebrew Anyway, I wasn't aware any languages besides Hebrew read right to left...

Manga is a language?

_________________

I meant I assume it's written in a language that reads right to left, because how could English be read that way?

_________________
I could use some salve.

Generally I read lying down, and then mainly use my right hand to flip pages. When I'm not lying down, I usually use both hands.

_________________

I don't really know, I switch. But I think I use my right more.

Japanese, yes. Though it is translated, a lot of the books still read right to left.

Clarification: The English itself reads left to right, but the panel layout is intended to be read right to left.
