I bet you'll find that the thumb on the rubber feels better on your backhand, but you're probably switching it a bit on the forehand, if even subconsiously. It's kind of a bh grip. Its common for your thumb to touch the rubber, but I don't think most coaches would tell you it's proper to put it out onto the rubber.
