i did it too when i got my first road bike as an adult. i don't know why, but it appears to be human nature to point the bike to the left. i'll guess most craigs ads reflect this.
I used to do this before I learned better online, too. Perhaps it's that most of us mount/dismount from the left, and so we then lean it against something on the right?
