I was having a chat with some friends and we were talking about how, in the U.S. at least, washers are usually on the left and dryers on the right and why that might be. Someone pointed out that we wash first and then we dry. But then someone else pointed out that we are sort of primed to think in left-to-right terms already since that’s the direction in which we read. So here is my question:

Are washers usually on the right and dryers on the left in the Middle East?

    Mine’s a top load from 1997 so isn’t really an issue for me. May have to plan to shuffle them when these finally give out, though.
