jumperconway 0 #26 February 9, 2005 QuoteQuoteWhy do women's and men's shirts button on opposite sides? The above answers are correct, but it's also attributed to fact that the hilt of your sword won't get caught up on your shirt buttons during the draw if you button your shirt like a man. This was assuming right handed? So if you're left handed you would want to buy womens? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
complexity 0 #27 February 9, 2005 QuoteQuote 5$ is for dry clean, 1$ for laundry. No! If you are a woman and you bring a shirt in just to get laundered and starched, they will charge you more (unless sneak it in with guys shirts) At least in my experience... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Remster 30 #28 February 9, 2005 QuoteSo if you're left handed you would want to buy womens? Of course not, dont be silly. If you were left handed, you'd be put to death like the satan's spawn you are! And Bill, we just like to be dissagreeable! Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites happythoughts 0 #29 February 9, 2005 QuoteWhy do dry cleaners charge $5 per shirt for women and $1 a shirt (or 99 cents) for men? The male-dominated cleaning industry is just part of the Great Male Conspiracy to keep you down. It is well known that women spend any extra money on household wall knicknacks and self-help books from Oprah. These only make men miserable. Charging extra for cleaning is just a way to keep disposable income out of your hands. Men are protecting you from yourselves, you should be appreciative.

Why do dry cleaners charge $5 per shirt for women and $1 a shirt (or 99 cents) for men? They are pretty much the same except that the women's shirt is usually smaller. Makes me mad!!! They tried to say it was because the women's shirts are smaller and they have to handle them differently, BUT-I read about a study a couple of college kids did- The male took a white shirt to the cleaners to be laundered. When he picked it up they charged him $1.99. He went outside, crumpled it up, made it look worn, gave it to the female who took it to the same cleaners for laundering. When she picked up the shirt, they charged her $3.99. After this story hit the papers, all the laundries started charging the same price for men's and women's clothes.For my part, I know nothing with any certainty, But the sight of the stars makes me dream. -Vincent Van Gogh Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites jdhill 0 #34 February 9, 2005 QuoteThis was assuming right handed?
