Reddit, which foot goes first when you put on your pants?

I always put my left foot in first. It feels awkward the other way. And I'm right handed, although I'm not sure there's any correlation between pants and dominant hand?

I actually didn't even know, so I just tried it. It's the left foot first. Right handed here.

I put my pants on just like the rest of you—one leg at a time. Except, once my pants are on, I make gold records.

I put my penis in first.

Right foot first and I'm left handed. Funny thing is, other than writing and 'me time', the right side of my body is dominant. I'll kick with my right foot, I'll feel uncomfortable in a south paw position and I prefer to keep my wallet in the back right pocket of my jeans.

I have some leftie tendencies as well. When I cross my hands or my arms, left thumb or left arm is always on top (I've heard this is left-dominant); I high jumped as a leftie and my stronger kicking leg was my left and I think I also rake leaves and shovel snow leftie too.

I put my right leg in first for pants, I'm right handed. Funny enough I put my left leg in first for underwear.

Re: Correlation - there could be... I'm a lefty and I think my right foot tends to go in first, although I'm pretty sure that more often I'll sit on the edge of my bed and put'em both in at more or less the same time.

Left foot, right handed.

I look at the pants, whichever leg hole looks less twisted gets the first foot.

Left foot always. Same with shoes. It started when I had OCD really bad and needed to do everything "left first" or the world would end or some non-sense. Now it's just how I do it. I am right handed.

I actually do both at the same time.

You don't know, do you?

Right. Always right. My point is just that all the answers are going to be "left" or "right" with some joke answers mixed in and who cares!? "AskReddit is for thought-provoking, inspired questions," after all. Plus I'm hungover at work and in a bit of a mood, so don't take this personally.
