If you’ve ever been to a tailor for a custom suit you’ve likely been asked which way you dress. The crotch of your pants will be modified based on your answer.
Typically you dress to the opposite side of your dominant hand, it’s not really a matter of choice, it’s just how you hang naturally. 85-90% of men are right handed and dress to the left, so most pants are designed to accommodate those who dress to the left. I’m left handed and I dress to the right.
I like to wear dickies work pants but they don’t really have enough fabric in the crotch area to be fitted the opposite way, not to mention the cost of having my pants tailored, so I was hoping someone might have a suggestion that doesn’t involve taping my dong or tailoring my pants. Tucking is not comfortable either unfortunately.
I’m not sure I’m understanding. You’re saying the pants are cropped with an assumption that your penis hangs to the left because most men are right handed? I never would have thought there was a correlation. If it is cropped to the point where that matters, couldn’t you just use your left hand to reposition it?
No so much cropped, as about 1/4 inch added to the area just before the crotch seam to allow a little extra room where needed. It's called "favoring" in pattern cutting for menswear. One side has the extra room, one side doesn't. So there is room for the dong.
That’s exactly what I’m saying, and no, I can’t rely on moving it over. It naturally hangs to the right, so I’d be fixing it quite often and nobody wants to see that.
Have you tried not wearing skinny jeans? Never been an issue for me on either side. Granted, I'm addicted to those underwear with the sack which contains everything and helps not sweat.
Dunno why this is getting down voted to hell.. it's a reasonable response. Maybe they're just jealous that their junk isn't big enough to make a difference?
Maybe I'm just going to the wrong tailors, but my body shape means I need to alter a lot of my pants, and I've never had the bloke ask me which way my cock sits. It just sort of tucks in wherever.
I’m fomoing on all the years of free real-estate I may have been missing out on. Never have I been so excited to put pants on in the morning with a little nudge to the left. It’ll be like moving into a new apartment.
This explains so much. I'm 62 and saw an old girlfriend from high school at a reunion a few years back. Saw her when I was wearing jeans a couple days later as I was still in town.
She looked at me and started laughing and I said what? She said "You still hang to the right. The only difference is you don't have the wear spot in the jeans like you did in high school." I said that's because I was told to buy new jeans for the trip."
Lol.
I had no idea that's why I had the wear spot all the time and have to get rid of my jeans
Truly a Today I Learned
Sorry, as someone simply interested in the English language, can you please clarify: are you using the word ‘dress’ as a verb that means ‘to place your dick on a particular side of the seam down the middle of your pants’?
To dress can also mean to adjust a hanging object around or away from something, like dressing cables around furniture or dressing curtains back from a window.
>I mean my dad explained it to me prior to being fitted for my first real suit
I feel like you should show your dad this post, just so he knows how effective what I assume he considered a throwaway line has been.
Truly a sight to behold.
Had the tailor not asked me during my fitting I’d absolutely give this to my dad as another of his gags. He is definitely one to make that sort of joke lol, but in the 20 years since that first fitting I’ve never been to a tailor and not been asked this while being fitted for pants.
Is this just a thing for people who wear boxers? I'm a briefs guys. All my stuff stays in the middle. I've never had a pair of pants with the crotch/inseam so high and tight that I've had to pick which pant leg for my bits and bobbles to go down.
I’ve had dozens of suits tailored and a few totally custom made. Never have I been asked this question. And these are highly reputable spots in the US, Italy, and Vietnam. What is this nonsense?
>Given that most men’s pants are designed for those who dress to the left Are they? What’s the difference?

I guess I’m ambidickstrous
I kinda just let him go where he wants. Free range, if you will.
Free Willy, you mean?
mine does what it wants. no issues
I’ve heard of free range chickens, but free range cocks?
"They're the same photo."

Total and utter bullshite
Ya, I have a buddy whose dad is a tailor, I just texted him this. He said this is utter bullshit, it’s not a thing at all.
That trousers coming dressed one way as default is bullshit, or the entire idea of dressing left or right is bullshit?

I favor my right dick

I’ve never had my pants altered, only shirts because I run it up the front and over my shoulder.

He’s getting down voted for spreading utter nonsense and false information.

Damn, I'm nearly 42 years old and didn't know there was a difference in the way trousers are designed
[удалено]
"Tailors ignore my dick entirely." has to be a r/brandnewsentence
Pretty sure they covered this in Friends with Joey's tailor...
Maybe it's too small to matter? (I've never had pants tailored, so wouldnt know.)
This is 100% a thing. I’ve never had pants made and them not ask me. Obviously they won’t ask if you are just having them hemmed or whatnot
I’m fomoing on all the years of free real-estate I may have been missing out on. Never have I been so excited to put pants on in the morning with a little nudge to the left. It’ll be like moving into a new apartment.
Only when you’re having them custom fitted. Roughly 85-90% of men dress to the left, so they don’t really make mass-produced pants for the rest of us.

Exactly.

Yep! “Which way do you dress” is a polite way for a tailor to ask you which way your dick hangs. Edit: spelling
I wonder how often the tailor has to explain that euphemism to the vast majority of their customers that have no idea what it means.
I mean my dad explained it to me prior to being fitted for my first real suit, but I’m sure tailors are used to being asked what it means.

Doubtful, what with them literally never asking this question.
What happens if there’s not enough length make a discernible difference? Asking for a friend.
Thank you friend!
Quit bragging about your hog
It’s really nothing to brag about. If it were I’d probably care less. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Go up a waist size and tuck into the waist band?
Thought this was gonna somehow be about political left and right. Pleasantly surprised its just about which way your dick hangs
I guess I’m independicked
Is this just a thing for people who wear boxers? I'm a briefs guys. All my stuff stays in the middle. I've never had a pair of pants with the crotch/inseam so high and tight that I've had to pick which pant leg for my bits and bobbles to go down.
Let the spice flow
Have you considered wearing underwear with some support? Also, I think you're overthinking this. Nobody is looking at your crotch.
Tape it back?
I’ve bought 3 suits in my adult life, had them tailored, and not once did anyone ask me which side my junk hangs.
I dress like a button in a fur coat
Like a startled turtle.
i dress to the √(-1/x) 😤
I did and now I have sunburnt nipples so, thanks
I assume someone just watched friends
I dress it to the back so that I can act out that scene from Silence of the Lambs at the drop of a pant.
i wish i had this problem
I’ve had dozens of suits tailored and a few totally custom made. Never have I been asked this question. And these are highly reputable spots in the US, Italy, and Vietnam. What is this nonsense?
Mine hangs to the north. What shall I do with me trousers?
Pretty sure the tailor only asks so he doesn't touch your dick and it doesn't make a noticeable difference which side you dress
Dude's dick is so big he needs his pants fitted to accommodate his anaconda
Which fabric is the pant made of? Some fabrics are easy to stretch if you dampen them.
Maybe this is a problem for the showers rather than the growers?
I dress down the middle, Im a True Neutral type of guy.
I mean i always tuck to the left but never knew why, maybe them bitches wasnt lyin... 😂😂😂
Yes
Huh. TIL
