Do you prefer a button fly or zipper fly?

exactly. if I need five more "obstacles" between me and pie, ain't worth it. that's when the scissors come out.
if it ain't worth it maybe you lack creativity.
i find that when you want the button fly open it is just as fast as zipper.
zipper is faster to close up though.

Pish tosh young squire. I was talking the effort, not the pie. Pie is always worth it. Hence the scissors. I call that creative. Girl only gotta learn that lesson once. Demin's not cheap.
I like buttons since my last experience involving metal zipper teeth and human skin. That's all I will say on the matter.
My wife got me a pair of buttoned fly jeans. They are affectionally referred to as the "metro pants" around the house.

I can verify the rapidity in which button flies can be undone. It has a learning curve, but once you get the skills down it's not too hard.
Besides, why does username care about what our pants are closed with?
Why the hell would anyone knowingly choose a button fly over a zipper? Unless you have some morbid fear of getting your junk caught in one then there really is no reason for it. I had a pair of jeans with a button fly once... I wish I still had them so I could burn them.
Why would anyone knowingly choose shorts over pants? Unless you have some sort of morbid fear of your legs getting eaten by snakes there really is no reason for it. I had a pair of shorts once...I wish I still had them so I could burn them.
Well for one perhaps you're at the beach, or it's a warm day outside. Wearing shorts allows for your legs to cool better than pants, thereby reducing the chance that you may suffer a heat stroke, or something.
You could also for example be trying to get a frat-douche tan, so for this, you need a pair of khaki shorts and some leather sandals from Old Navy.
There are a multitude of reasons to pick shorts over pants. There are however exactly 0 reasons to pick button fly over zipper fly.
