After a bit of experimentation I can report that I dress “up”. Everything is way well above the seam that divides leg from leg, and symmetrically arranged.
I have found that if I don’t Re- Dress my quadratus lumburum becomes stressed.
A slight highjack:
My Radiologist father told me that in X-rays of a man with an injured leg the penis will be on the side that’s injured. He had a medical term for it, but I can’t remember what it was.
I better go google this out. My dad liked to tease me by making stuff up!
How do I hang?
I’ll need 30mg of Valium, a 5-foot drop, and the knot behind the left ear, if you please. No hood - I’d prefer to shock and dismay the witnesses as much as possible, thanks.
Well technically, I dress “up” as well, because I prefer briefs that offer support and find dangling down the pant leg to be uncomfortable, but it still leans to the left.
I hang to the left, but don’t own any tailored pants.
So could someone please explain why a tailor would need to know the angle of my dangle? Is there some sort of casement involved?
Happy
OK, I’m left handed (I do everything with my left hand). I wear my watch on my left wrist (I hardly ever wear one though) and I dress left. My tailor(if I still had one) gives me more room on the left side.
Many years ago, back in high school when anything and everything related to sex was starting to crop up in casual conversation, my buddies and I would occasionally greet each other not with, “How’s it goin’?” or, “What’s up?” but with, “Which way ya hangin’?” Back then, sometimes right but mostly left. Nowadays, pretty much always left.
Never been asked right-or-left by anyone in a professional capacity, though. Guess I need to get out more.
Can you imagine turning the tables? Walk into Old Navy and ask the clerk, “Excuse me, but where do I find the pants for dressing left?”
Just in case VenusProbe didn’t make it clear, yes, a tailor will make that pantleg slightly roomier for comfort.
Now, you see, this wouldn’t even be a concern if you all wore kilts.
I’m so glad I didn’t know this term when I was in Tha Army.

[Cartman] I hang on West Side!
WEST SIGH-EEEED!!!
[/Cartman}
yeah… probably pushing… especially for the second page… but it’s time to get off work, been a looong day, and I have taken entirely to much Afrin after the amount of alcohol I had at lunch… I may be a bit punchy…
left, generally… fwiw
Left, and i call him Lefty
The tailor will also very slightly offset the fly to the “free” side, so it doesn’t rub against sensitive areas.
If you wear briefs, and not boxers, you don’t ‘hang’. You keep it in the garage. I can’t imagine ‘hanging’.
I think I’m pretty sure about which way it’s going… I’m a little far away for a quick trip for you, though, and that would be pretty awkward… “Parents, this is a guy I barely know from an online group. He’s going to feel me up and make sure my penis is on the left. Carry on.”
We dress right in marching band too. But for some reason I didn’t think of that until I read this post. Thanks. 
Do your ears hang low?
Do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie 'em in a knot?
Can you tie 'em in a bow?
Can you throw 'em o’er your shoulder
Like a continental soldier
Do your ears hang low?..
Ok, I gotta ask for clarification here. Do you mean “up” as in pointing up? Or do you simply mean that the seam in question is low enough that all concerned parties are above it, and are therefore unconcerned with the whole left-right issue? I’m a tighty-whities guy myself, and that places all concerned parties in a neat package that doesn’t reach the seam. However, within that package, things are still more right than left. And never “up”. I don’t think I’d be able to sit down.
“Dress 'em on the left!
(flambouyant adjustment)
Dress 'em on the right!
Stand up, sit down!
Fight, fight, fight!”
