Do you carry your bag on the left or right side?

Which side do you prefer most?

  • Left

  • Right

  • Either side don't matter. I'm comfortable and switch between both.

  • It depends on where I wear it, like my arm, shoulder, hand, etc. Combo of both.

I'm right-handed and I carry my bags on my left shoulder.

It just doesn't feel comfortable on my right shoulder (keeps slipping off / gets in the way) whereas I can easily grab what I want out of my bag with my free right hand.
 
I'm right handed, but I tend to wear my purses more so on my left arm because it is easier to grab things out if I need to. Although I do use both arms when I'm carrying my bag on my actually arm and not shoulder and carrying it in my hand.
 
I'm right-handed, and carry my bags on my right side (i.e. on my right shoulder if it's a shoulder bag, on my left shoulder with the bag on my right side if it's a crossbody). If I'm carrying a bag in my hand or in the crook of my arm, I usually switch between left and right when necessary, but I mostly carry my bags on my shoulder.

SAME here. My purse keeps on sliding off my right shoulder.
 
I can't carry my bag on the left shoulder either! It's always on the right, unless it's a cross-body bag, in that case it is on the left shoulder with the bag on my right side.
Handbags I carry in both but I prefer my right hand!
