Yesterday, on my way home from work, I saw a male student walking very strangely, almost like someone from the Monty Python "Ministry of Silly Walks": super bowlegged.
I was wondering what was up, then as I passed him, I saw that the crotch of his pants was about halfway down his thighs (and if he hadn't been wearing a long shirt, I'm sure I'd see much more than I'd like to see). I was hoping the "pants so loose, they may drop at any moment" fad had died out a while ago, but I guess not. (At least it makes for a safer campus for female students : if possible attackers are wearing these kinds of pants, they couldn't possibly chase after anyone without tripping over them as they--the pants--fell down).
I also am a connoisseur of fine glutei maximi (sp?!), and whenever I'm behind people (like walking in the halls or at the bank or the post office), I tend to look at butts. Most of the male students around here wear baggy-butt pants that makes them look like they've got the derrière of a an 80-year-old guy.
On the other end of the spectrum, quite a few of the girls wear too-tight jeans. The other day, I was behind a girl who looked slim in general, but had on too-tight, low-cut jeans and a crop top, and had a handful of muffin top/love handles hanging over the top of her pants. And this was while she was standing. (Did make me--at least twice her age--not feel too bad about how I would look in the same outfit...not that I'd wear it in public!)
Are youth fashions the same where you are?
