Why are some things easier with your non dominant hand?
Like fretting a guitar

>>16777364 (OP)
It's not. Try fretting with your dominant hand without bothering about picking.

I'd have to find someone who's never touched a guitar before

>>16777371
Or you could just turn it upside down and put it under your other armpit and fret away.

I can't fret for shit with my dominant hand

>>16777373
You can't put a power chord on with your dominant hand? I'm very skeptical lol.

>>16777374
I can but my pinky doesn't like to cooperate

I always use computer mouse with my non-dominant hand because I'm left-handed and the mouse is always on the right. I'm so used to it that it's actually easier with my right hand.

Have you ever fingered a piano with both of your hands?

>>16777407
Yeah
Not the same as guitar and you know it

Nothing is easier. By consciously practicing you will quickly rewire the neurons but your right hand would have had a head start

I taught myself to brush my teeth with my non-dominant hand a couple of years ago, and now I can brush easily using either hand.

A lot of people display some degree of ambidexterity. I pretty much do any throwing or strenuous tasks like hammering with my left hand and finesse tasks like writing or using a screwdriver with my right hand.

The non dominant hand is used for bracing things and simple task. Like with lock picking your non dominant hand is what holds the tension tool and the dominant hand handles the pick.
