- Did you ever onder why do men’s clothes have buttons on the right while women’s clothes have buttons on the left?
- The answer is that when buttons were invented, they were very expensive and worn primarily by the rich. Because wealthy women were dressed by maids, dressmakers put the buttons on the maid’s right! Since most people are right-handed, it is easier to push buttons on the right through holes on the left. And that’s where women’s buttons have remained since.
Thanks for the comment. I usually save the link in my internet explorer favorites under a catagory I created just for that. I can send you some links to sites that might help with your blogging if you are interested.
