While left-handed people have been catered to by a number of manufacturers, producing everything from left-handed video cameras, wallets, scissors and pencil sharpeners, this is the first time the underwear needs of southpaws have been considered.

Hom, the company behind the pants, claim the underwear will "save left handed men up to three, often vital, seconds when visiting the loo", potentially helping a raft of left-handed men, from American presidents George Bush, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama to Uri Geller and Paul McCartney.

Rob Faucherand, the head of men’s accessories buying at Debenhams, the department store that is stocking the pants, said: “In our view this is a vital step toward equality for left handed men.

“We see no reason why an accident of birth should dictate the type of underpants you can wear for the rest of your life.”

While boxer shorts usually have an central opening, Y-fronts and trunks traditionally have a right-handed opening, making it potentially more tricky for left-handed men when they are standing at a urinal.

The Hom underwear has an opening slit made horizontally underneath the waistband. Mr Faucherand said: “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.”

The Hom H1 Original Maxi Trunk is £22, while the Hipster version is £16.

For someone going out on the town with the guys , he'd better know what he's wearing from now on

because once he's had too many, he may be searching on the right and the left too long and end up pissing

on himself.

WTF? I'm left-handed.

Maybe by "accident" they meant "contingency."

This thread, combined with your other men's intimate apparel thread, leads me to believe you've been "asked" to sleep at the Y.

Again.......

I do remember that in a few of the video reviews, El Pres seemed to have a very "intimate" knowledge of the *** stripclub up the street.....
