Q: Why do mens clothes have buttons on the right while womens clothes have buttons on the left? A: When buttons were invented, they were very expensive and worn primarily by the rich. Since most people are right-handed, it is easier to pushbuttons on the right through holes on the left. Because wealthy women were dressed by maids, dressmakers put the buttons on the maids right! And thats where womens buttons have remained since.
