I once made fun of a woman on What Not to Wear because she had this hangup (pun intended) about clothes hangers facing in the same direction. Of course, this woman was ten types of crazy, but I should have realized that watching this episode was like looking in a living 360 degree mirror of stone-cold reality.
Hanging up shirts tonight, I might have spent five total extra minutes flopping shirts and hangers around to fit my own twisted sense of symmetry (open part of hanger pointed away from the door, shirt fronts facing to the right). What made me realize that this behavior was significant is that I put no thought at all into how my pants were hung up, just that they were on a hanger.
The problem is, I've never had the experience of being someone else, hanging up someone else's clothes in someone else's closet (although I suppose that if I were someone else, at that point I would be hanging up my own clothes in my own closet. They just wouldn't be mine. Does that make sense?) Point being, is this normal behavior? Do people care which way their shirts are facing? Am I, in fact, one of the regular folks that just hangs up clothes in the same way as everyone else? Or am I a closet deviant? Please help.
