Why do men's clothes have buttons on the right while women's clothes have buttons on the left?

Those pockets keep us from having to carry a purse.

Sorry B A F, I don't carry enough stuff (I was gonna say crap, but decided that would be crass) to fill a perfect working handbag.

I guess for guys a comb is good enough if you still have hair so we don't need a purse. Two credit cards, a debit card, a library card, voter's card, social security card, along with a driver's license is all a wallet needs to hold. Oh,  maybe a little cash. My keys and pocket knife can fit in the front pocket of the jeans or slacks and a pen in the shirt pocket. I am so glad I don't have to carry a purse.

I think there should be a law phrohibiting women's clothing from having buttons. Zippers are so much easier to use.

Uh....from who's use...yours or theirs?

*my bad....can't help myself sometimes.....:-)*

What ever happened to that "metro" look for men?  Did that fizzle out?  I don't recall that it ever caught on, out here on The Leelanau.....well maybe it did with the Winery Set......I don't really travel with THAT crowd.

Metro look? Is that where guys dress like public transportation? Sorry, I'm not dressing to look like a bus. (Ok, I have been told I look as wide as a bus)

[CWO3ROBBIE]

Metro look??

Guess I missed that one. I like the shorts and Flip Flops look myself.

Well, Levis at this time of year.

Unless I'm in Key West.
