Anyways, although in my opinion I think the fad of wearing your pants low is stupid, people have their personal rights, and it's just stupid to control how people dress.

It's not like people are aloud to run around naked... it's still exposure to a lesser degree.

I check my e-mail.

It'll be struck down by the courts, hopefully.

I don't know about you, but I feel like its more comfortable to let your pants hang.

Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, "You're next." They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.

It's so funny. There's a topic about this on a local message board. The overall consensus about the bill seems to be the polar-opposite of this one.

I don't sag, but I do wear baggy pants. Occasionally, they sag a little lower. What I don't agree upon is forcing people to conform to someone elses opinion of how people should look. This is a huge waste of time. If you don't like certain styles, then deal.

It wouldn't matter what the content of the bill is. The fact that they are trying to govern people's superficial self-expression by governing clothing styles is vulgar in itself. Hell, even if they tried banning flourescent pink spandex, I'd be against this bill.

Anyone else catch what they said about this on the daily show?

This cracked me up - I see their point, but it is a big fat waste of time!

Silly people with power - what can you do about it?

------------------
If at first you don't succeed, lower your standards.

That's a joke, right? I can understand if maybe you're talking about not having your pants jacked up to your bellybutton, but we're talking about having your britches so low it borders indescent exposure. Like, yesterday driving to school I saw a guy running across the street at a red light. He literally had to hold his pants up as he ran so they wouldn't fall down. That's not comfortable, it's just stupid. I just laughed at the idiot...
I don't know how you could argue that's more comfortable... it's like saying "oh I wear a man thong because it feels good!"

I can't tell you how many "plumbers butts" I see at school, and it's discusting... boys and girls alike.

I do think that pants should be pulled up, but I will NOT support a LAW that requires it. It's something that the government doesn't need to regulate.

Me too, omq last summer on campus it was just ridiculously hot, there were a number of days my friend and i were so like we totally need to just ditch our clothes for the day, be she and i finally decided against it.. too many people would get jealous or something.

But yeah, that whole pants so low you need to hold them up, that's so asinine. I actually [asterisk, historical event] saw at a store a couple years ago pants that had like this top thing sewn onto the waistband that was designed to look like six inches or so of boxers, sou you could sag /and/ be trendy or something.. it was the most moronic thing i've ever seen. [well, one of at least]

Thats quite funny but we should spend our time on stuff that actually matters instead of wasting our time making a law where you cant be baggy.

What really needs to stop are the people who buy shorts and then proceed to sag them so low they look like freaking jeans when they're standing. I just don't get that. At all.

Belts are your friend. I don't know about anyone else here, but I don't enjoy having to hoist my pants up every 30 seconds becasue they're sliding off my *** . You don't have to fasten the belt as tight as you can, god knows I don't, just enough to keep them from hanging on your thighs.

A law won't help this, it's stupid. A lesson in common sense on how to dress might. I swear, of all the moronic fashions, pants hanging off your *** has to rank among the top 10.

Instead of this ineffective law, they make a law that makes it everyone's legal duty to give wedgies to people who have their pants so low that they don't even sit on them.

i dont think their should be a frickin law against it but still its common decensy. the problem isnt even guys wearing baggy pants and exposing their boxers because you still dont see their actual butt. this article i believe is talking about exposed skin. in the pic in the article, her pants are so freaking low. if she just moves around a bit, if she had any, youd see her pubic hair. which official is exposing private parts. quite frankly it hink wearing your pants that low is wrong anyway. specially for girls coz i dont knwo how you can wear a pair of pants that dont like *hug* your arse. coz ive done that whole low rise thing n everytime i bend over i felt like i had to hold the back of my pants. i wear my pants pretty low just because i have some nice abs to show but not that low. im talkin 3inches bellow the belly button, not 6.

[teletubbie voice] BIG HUG!!!! [/teletubbie voice]

Please reconsider! Indeed. It looks like the pants are loaded down with sh*t.

Looking like you're loosing your pants is not a style.
