Location buttons





Everyone knows that women's and men's clothing buttons on different sides, but almost no one knows why it is so.

Indeed, what kind of clothes do not take on men's button on the right-to-left, and the female is always the other way around, and it does not matter - fasteners, rivets, zippers or Velcro. It is very interesting that other wardrobe items - shawls and scarves - are tied and plowed right, men, and women - on the contrary. Why is this so?

In this regard, there are many theories, the most popular of them are only three. The first theory is this: when the zipper was invented in the form of buttons, they could afford only the rich, but in those days the men dressed yourself, and women dressed maid, so the women's clothing buttons sewn on the contrary, the service staff was so convenient and quick to dress her mistress . In our time, the woman herself puts himself, but the tradition remained.

The second theory is this: is the location of the buttons appeared in nursing mothers because the mother often holds the child's head at the left chest. It is convenient to cover it from cold hollow right clothes, so she made otpahivayuscheysya.

The third theory says the armed man in the cold season had warmed his right hand under the left hollow of his coat, as this is the best way to make a good shot, because a lot of dumb hand not to shoot, so a button and he should be placed on the right.

There are versions that all this is due to the faith because of the hemispheres of the brain, due to the etiquette. Versions huge amount, but the meaning is one. We still understand that the location of the fastener is not 100% tied to the floor of the wearer, much depends on the religion or traditions.
