Do you thread your belt left or right?

Traditionally, we thread ours to the right while men to the left.  I always thought it was stupid that there's a "proper" way anyway but I don't like threading my belt to the right because it's a pain when using a holster.  Being right handed I like to be able to add my holster on just as I'm ready to buckle up.  I got used to this as a LEO and it's way easier for a right handed person.

Going right is "traditional" but a pain in the butt for adding and removing a right hand holster.  Going to the left is the "men's" way but easier for holsters.  I'm going to flip my buckle around and thread left because it's easier.

I was just curious if anyone else has switched to threading left for ease of holster mounting (assuming you're right handed and not using a clip on holster of course)?

Are your zippers and buttons backwards, too?

It's not a problem in need of fixing, just a question for the other ladies.

I have always threaded to the left, going right just felt wrong to me.

I also wear my watch on my left.

I am a righty with everything else.
