Placement of Pair of Chinese Lions

Subject: How to properly place a pair of Chinese Stone Lions
We have seen many pictures of buildings with the Lion figurines.
In many of the ancient Chinese buildings, one hardly notice that:-
1. The Male Lion
1.1 This Lion sits on the left side of the building.
1.2 The Male Lion will have it's mouth open. Showing in traditional Chinese society, MALE is `dominant'.
1.3 It is holding a ball.
2. The Female Lion
2.1 It sits on the right side of the building.
2.2 It has it's mouth closed. Here, the FEMALE is considered submissive.
2.3 The Female Lion holds a lion cub.
You can view the pair of MALE and FEMALE lion under this URL:

The pictures in the above link are:-

4. I hope you now better understand the symbolism of the `ORIGINAL' pair of Lions.
Does your pair of LION STATUE have this description? YES / NO ? If not, yours is just an `ordinary' lion.
Warmest Regards,
