Did you know that women's shirts which have buttons, have the right side over the left, while men's are left over right.
The reason being: When men began wearing button down shirts, butlers and maids would help you get dressed. With left over right, it is made for someone who is right handed to more easily manipulate the buttons. When button down shirt came into fashion for women, the were part of the work place, and long were the days of butlers and maids. Right over left makes it much easiter for someone to dress themselves.
Buttons yes, but Zippers are another story. Left, right, bothways? It's a friggin' jungle out there.
