How do you put your pants on?

Recommended Posts

I usually put them on in a hurry when we hear your car pull in the driveway

 

I know this sounds like a digby "how do I dispose of a christmas tree" thread... but i'm curious.

 

Are you a weirdo who sits and pulls them up both legs at the same time? Assuming not, which leg do you step in with first? Is it the same leg as your dominant hand?

This morning I put my right leg into my pants first and immediately felt like i had vertigo. I realized I always put my left leg in first and have no idea why I started with the right. I am left handed although really ambidextrous and played most sports right handed. Wondering if there is a correlation to dominant hand or just a quirk.

Exactly me. Left side first. I feel if I do it wrong will have bad day or even die. Lefty writing everything else righty. Although I’ll eat whichever side the fork is on.

One leg at a time after I pick them up from the floor of your mom’s bedroom.

I'm always left-leg first, although I'm right-handed all around, not like you lefty demon spawn.  As I think about it, it probably evolved from being more comfortable on my right (dominant) leg as the one-legged base.  When I did TKD, I tended to have my left leg in front, which is relatively uncommon for right-handers who prefer to kick with their dominant leg, but I preferred it as a solid base.  Also I wasn't very good at TKD so...

In a half assed Google search it seemed there was a lot of talk that people start with the opposite leg of their dominant hand because they have better balance on their “dominant leg”

when I played soccer/kickball i kicked with my right leg so this would track

There’s no superstition aspect to it for me. When I put right leg first this morning I just legitimately felt like I was about to fall over.

I joke about the superstition but it’s left. Pants socks shoes. All left first.

I never really thought about it but I'm left handed and do the right leg first as well. Same with gloves
