Lefties Finally Get Their Undies

Male lefties of the world have long suffered inconvenience and embarrassment at the urinal, thanks to their underwear. One British store is making up for the indignity with a new line of undies featuring a horizontal, rather than vertical, opening—giving Britain’s lefties an alternative to boxer shorts, Reuters reports. “In our view, this is a vital step toward equality for left-handed men,” says a store rep.

“Left-handed men have to reach much further into their pants, performing a Z-shaped maneuver through two 180-degree angles before achieving the result that right-handed men perform with ease,” he continues. “Switching the opening from vertical to horizontal may sound like a small step, but it's the major breakthrough that many have been waiting for.” (More Jay-ZTV stories.)
