Putting your pants on!

As I lay here in my bed, on the internet, I am thinking of showering and getting dressed. So I got to thinking about how people do it. Get dressed that is. So here's your chance to share! (and I know you want to!) Choose all that apply!

CRIKEY!! Can some nice mod please fix my poll?? I said choose all that apply, but forgot to click "allow multiple postings" DOH!

Retry! (still haven't showered or gotten out of bed yet- soon! Made my kids get my computer and my power cord...)

(Phew, I was really worried I'd screw it up again, but I think I got it right this time... thanks Zee/Zed/Zelda!)

I would imagine how you put them on, left or right leg, would depend on if you are right or left handed.......

I'm actually ambidextrous (although, over the years, I have developed a preference for one hand over another for certain activities). I'm told that's why I'm so freaking confused all the time. I guessed right leg though. I guess when I finally get dressed, I'll see if I'm right...

Left leg first, and I am right handed (if anyone wants to correlate the correspondence of the two).

I am more interested in what "certain activities" GK developed a hand preference for?

dang, I put on my pants after my shower and forgot to check which leg went in first! My kids are pretty much right handed and do the left leg first, I think, but that could be because I always held the left side (my right side) ready for them when they were little guys.

As for those certain activities... well, you'd better post a poll and find out!

AHA-- pants/underpants/underwear/panties == same in UK. Got it. I would assume that you'd put the same leg in first for underpants and overpants... wouldn't you? And I wonder how one would go about finding someone who put on trousers in a sillier way. hide in the wardrobe/closet? uh, "date" an awful lot of people of both sexes (date right into their bedroom) ? do a goofy poll on an ebook forum? The possibilities are endless!
