Why are the buttons on womens clothing on the other side?

I actually know the answer to this one!

A man always dressed himself, and buttons were set for a right handed person to button easily by himself. A woman had many layers of clothes and was often dressed by a servant who would be facing the person she was dressing, therefore her point of view would be the mirror of a person dressing him/herself and that is why the buttons are on the opposite side.

Then you must ask yourself why are the buttons on mens clothing on the right hand side first?

earlier clothes with buttons used to be limited to the royal family , where men dressed themselves but women were dressed by their maids so the buttons are on different sides

My husbands grandma pointed out to me that zippers on jeans are opposite, or at least they used to be. Weird things...

To confuse the men.

women and men think differently

So you won't be embarrased by wearing women's shirt or blouse.

I have no idea... I have always wondered that too...

so men don't get confused...

I dont really know.. Im just guessing

in case you get in a random sword fight and one of them falls off
