Jacket/Sweater Side Pocket Zippers

Just wondering about this. Eg., I have a Columbia Microfleece zip sweater; to open the side pockets you pull the zippers DOWN. To close them you pull up.

Is that a standard thing, and if so, why ?

On a completely unrelated note, I saw this sales display in a Walmart in the small town where I have been working. I thought the marketing was interesting.

I find the lady quite attractive, but it was the tatoos that stumped me. Presuming the garments are being marketed to women, the target demographic is ? ? ?

Cute though and I also read something in the last couple of days about ethnic/dark complected/ambiguous race models being the most popular thing for clothes marketed to young women, which presumably includes teens.

Tattoos are fully mainstream at this point, so the target demographic would be - invoking my maddest Gary Oldman here - "EVERYONE!"

My daughter (4th grade) has had at least 3-4 elementary school teachers with visible tattoos (like arm sleeves - not face! Yet...) and she goes to an exclusive prep school, one of the top private K-12s in the USA. That's the tattoo "energy" these days.

(I actually think if you look historically, you'll find that the tattoo-less are an anomaly of the past couple of centuries... humans gonna decorate a surface!)

Yeah hi, I didn't see your original post.

But I figured that using your judgement to not offend anyone deserved something.

What about the zippers though? I've found almost nothing on the internet that addresses this question.
