Oops. I think I voted wrong. I meant to reply “unidextrous,” able to button both cuffs, but voted “ambidextrous,” by accident. (I mean, my non-dominant hand isn’t exactly useless, and I can do a lot with it, but it’s still obviously my non-dominant hand, although it may be specialized to do tasks like fretting an instrument or doing stride jumps on the piano better than my right.)

Anyhow, with a good deal of my shirts, I wouldn’t be able to button them first and still get them on without popping the button.
