    When you consider that men’s clothing buttons up the way it does because gentlemen used to dress themselves, and were mostly right-handed, and that women’s buttoning is the other way round because ladies were dressed by their maids, who also were mostly right-handed (but working from the other side), it seems to me that the traditional notions of how men’s and women’s clothing should button or how kilts/skirts should buckle up are entirely arbitrary.
    What works for you is what works best.
    Ladies of X Marks, make your own choices and forget about the silly side of tradition.
    Regards,
