blame the kings and queens for that one, back in midevil times, the kings dressed themselves, the queens and princesses were dressed by servants, usually male.

therefore

the male buttons, zips, and belts on the right, for the right handed, while the womens is always to the left, because it would be the right hand of the male servent dressing her.

How many opposite sides does a decagon have?

a decagon i believe has either 5 or 20 opposite sides * * * * * A decagon has 10 sides so I cannot see how it could have 20 opposite sides. It has 5 pairs of opposite sides but this does not mean that these opposite sides face each other. In an irregular decagon it is quite possible for opposite sides to be at right angles or at any angle to each other.
