I think WinWord has it and maybe others, too.

latex always say
- oddsidemargin, which is left for one- and twoside (inner)
- evensidemargin, which is left for even pages in
twosidemode (outer)
the left/rightmargins are only valid in list-environments,
they do not belong to the pagedefinition and therefore they
are not set in the geometry package.
inner/outer seems to be the better definition for the twosidemode,
because you do not have to know where are even/odd pages.
So changing to inner/outer maybe a good idea, but I can live
with the even/odd one.
