Everybody puts on their pants one leg at a time. Question is, which leg do you put on first?

I get three guesses, right?

Don't people put their "dominant leg" first? Right handed people tend to have a dominant right. Which foot do you use to score a goal in football/soccer? That's the leg you put in first.

this is a difficult question.

I think most people here aren't even wearing pants, and are kind of confused.

So these legs, they come in pairs?

You people actually put on your legs?! Does MeFi have a high percentage of amputees/those born legless? Is that why there's so much pantslessness?

So many asses, and so few legs.

how do you tell if you're the last person picked and they always put you in goal?

Aha! I think we've found one with legs.

i was always put in defense, the graveyard of inept footballers. the up side though is that i managed to kill off a few promising careers by hacking down star strikers.

yeah, I had a similar problem in schoolyard baseball, but I just blamed it on my cheap prosthetic legs. I was a whiz at riflery though, and that seemed to scare some people.

Left arm first.

I got one leg.

I actually couldn't tell you which leg I put in first. I can't recall the last time I've thought about it.
