Western clothes have buttons on the right for men. This is convenient the majority of men are right handed. It is easier for them to use the right hand when buttoning up. Why, then, do women's clothes have buttons on the left, even though most women are also right handed? Is this a kind of discrimination? In fact, there is a reason why women's buttons are on that side. In the past, buttons were quite expensive and only rich people could effort them. Women in such wealthy families had servants who dressed them. Therefore, to make it easier for the servants buttons were put on the left.
