I always wondered if there was any rhyme or reason to this.

It's right and right for me. But when I have a handheld bag, it's on the crook of my left arm.

But then, when I am at the airport, it's luggage pulled by my right, and handbag/carryon duffle on my left.
 
I am right-handed and wear my bags on the left shoulder. This keeps my right hand free to do things. Plus, my left hand/arm is not really 'trained' to do anything else; I don't trust it to do anything--it's messed up before! :smash:
 
My shoulders are a bit uneven so I wear my bag on my right shoulder. If I try to wear it on my left the strap always slips off and it's just awkward. Plus, I'm right-handed and it feels more comfortable that way.
