LONDON (Reuters) - A British store is launching a range of underpants for left-handed men, an innovation it says will save them both time and embarrassment in front of the porcelain. The new range, by UK-based Hom, will have a horizontal opening instead of a vertical slit accessed from the right-hand side, breaking a tradition that has lasted for 75 years.
"In our view, this is a vital step toward equality for left-handed men," said Rob Faucherand of Debenhams store.

Actually, it’s because Muslims are only allowed to touch that part of their body with their left hands. They are just caving in to Sharia Law.

You know, if you can’t find your own d*ck when you need to pee because of where the opening is in your underpants, you’ve got more problems than we’d have time to go into here, LOL!

If in 75 years the lefties haven’t learned how to successfully get Mr. Happy out to pee, then I rather doubt that moving the access door is going to help them.
I can just imagine: “Well, uh, sorry little lady, I’m left handed.” LOL at myself.

A Marine and squid were in the head...both at the urinals. The squid finished first and went to the sink. He was surprised when the Marine finished, zipped up and walked towards the door.
The squid stopped him by saying, "Hey, aren't you going to wash your hands?"
The Leatherneck replied,"No."
The squid said, "You know, in Basic Training, the Navy taught us to always wash our hands after we pee."
The Marine replied, "Well, in Boot Camp, the Corps taught us to not pee on our hands."
