Since I posted this I did some search and just found out women's zippers are also different!!!!!
Why do female shirts have buttons on the left side while male shirts have buttons on the right side???
Then you have the Amish, who get around the whole thing by not using buttons OR zippers. Clothes are held together by hook and eye fasteners. The women's dresses come in pieces (skirt, top, apron) and the whole thing is held together with straight pins. Ouch.
I wish women's pants would automatically come with pockets, the way men's do.
