Where did all this come from and why is it still around? I'm certain it has something to do with some rapper fashion going back to the early 90's. Will this style ever leave? It's 2009 and I still see butts at my bank and shopping mall. In analyzing this butt sagging fashion statement, my conclusion is that it is the modern youth culture's statement of rebellion. Whereas in my generation youth marched in protest against war and government, now they simply pull their pants down in some kind of protest against the establishment.
I'm sure we can find some psychologist who will say that we need to help these kids deal with their rebellion and allow them to express their rebellion in a healthy way. Baloney! Pull your freaking pants up because I do not want to see your ugly bum at the shopping mall next Christmas.
Our youth of today are the most privileged generation in history. They have more opportunity, more leisure time, easier standards, less work, and more stuff than anyone - ever. All we ask as adults who are giving you this easy life style is, PULL YOUR PANTS UP!
that's a good rant. Jer agrees :-)
ReplyDeleteRight on, Pasta Bob. My thought is, whoever thought PLUMBERS would set the fashion trend for women's pants????!!!!???? Ah, yes. It is scary when our young (and, ohso scary, old) women run around in PLUMBER PANTS.
