zippers too!!! the flap over the zipper is different for men and women. (because women can do anything anyway).

I think someone did this on purpose, so if we sew a man's shirt, it's easy to do the wrong way, lol!

I like men's shirts, they have such pretty colors and are far better made than women's clothing. Good quality stuff lasts forever, or until the style changes. Or my hour glass figure lets the sand shift south too much and perky becomes hangers.

I don't much care which side the buttons are on, I've yet to see a group of folks standing around, pointing at my chest and chanting "She's got them buttoned wrong!!!"

I have been wearing thrift store finds for so long I couldnt tell you who has buttons on which side. As long as I can button them without a "gap", if I like it I will wear it.

I also like alot of men clothes, have started checking the men's section the last few years, for winter tops. Love men's Henleys & you can find some really soft tops in the men's dept.

Glad for the explanation :) Now that none of us can afford to hire servants anymore, maybe the clothing industry could fix this issue!
