There appears to have been some poll jiggery pokery here..:pDT_Xtremez_32: (I suspect some moderator privilege abuse. Please have the manners and integrity to claim your handiwork)

I am sure that the wearing of the watch does not indicate ones sexuality. Although it may be an indication that you are an affront to normality and are left handed.

I can see nothing wrong with the poll, it is a proven fact that right arm watch wearers are camper than Millets! Fact!

When I used to wear a watch it was on the right wrist, changed from the left after the winder of my very expensive Omega got ripped off somehow. Probably cost more than the watch (bought in Singapore) to have a new winder put on. Now I just don't bother with the time, no deadlines to keep anymore.

There are right handed and left handed watches.

As a practical consideration, winding a watch was more efficiently executed with the right hand as approximately 90 percent of the population is right-handed. Therefore watches were worn on the left side allowing to wind with the right hand. Watches that are designed to be worn on the right are extremely rare and highly valuable to collectors.

So in summary, if you are wearing a watch designed for the left hand on you right hand then you are just cock handed (pun intended) and must be gay.

Also slightly related, swords are worn on the left side and drawn with the right hand (RAF Officer Ceremonial Dress). Buttons on mens shirts are on the right (as opposed to right for women) allowing the buttons of a coat to be underdone with the left hand while drawing a sword. No allowances are made for being left handed or gay!

I'm right handed and wear my watch on my left hand.

I also hold my phone with the left hand, so I can take notes with my right hand whilst on the phone.

There is a reason why I write with my right hand... because if it's right, it's not wrong (unlike those cack handed ones that walk amongst us!).:pDT_Xtremez_32:
