Fads come and Fads go, Styles change, but one thing that has always been around is jeans. We’ve wore them with bell bottoms, we’ve worn them with frayed edges, hip huggers, and high waisted. We’ve worn them stone washed, acid washed, and everything in between. In the 80s we wore them so tight legged you almost needed crisco and a pry bar to get them over your feet. lol

But the way jeans are worn today is nothing but criminal. I’m sure Mr. Strauss and every other jean creator is turning over in their grave. Somebody please explain to me why anyone would want to wear jeans with their crotch down to their knee caps and their underwear showing at the top or a really long shirt on to hide their butts. That was the one really great thing I remember about the 80s. We wore our jeans snug. I can remember spending many many hours looking at some mighty fine works of art framed in nice snug levis.

The other night I was sitting on my front porch enjoying the cool air and this guy walks by, he has on a pair of those long shorts, the crotch down so low his boxers were hanging out the top. My mom was sitting there with me and I said, look at that. His drawers ain’t even that pretty. Well it was about 15 minutes later he came walking back by with a can of pringles, eating. I looked at mom and said so that’s it. The poor feller was so hungry he couldn’t hold his shorts up.

But really people, all joking aside, pull your dang pants up where they belong. You just have no idea how many people are standing behind you dying to grab the sides of your pants/shorts/jeans and jerk them up. Trust me, eventually someone is going to snap and do it. I bet it’s going to be a lot more comfortable if you pull them up yourself.

So today I’m about to enter the local grocery store and there’s this woman standing there.  Best guess she was around 20-25 years old.   She was dressed in shorts that were about a size too small, they were the in fashion hip riders and she wore a very small t-shirt.   Unfortunatly there was about 2 inches between the t-shirt and the shorts and there was a nice hunk of blubber hanging over.   Now don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t the fact that the blubber was there, because trust me, I have a ton of it myself.   It was the fact that it was hanging out.    Every girl, teenage young lady, and woman should have a full length mirror that shows her from head to toe and she should look in the dang thing before she walks out the door and subjects the rest of the world to her faux pas.    I just do not understand it.  

Yesterday at wal-mart, this girl walked in front of me and she had on the low rider jeans and a t-shirt.   There was the “love handles” hanging over on both sides.    I’m sorry but if you have “love handles”, stay away from low riding jeans.   It is not a good look, I don’t care if they are in style, it’s disgusting.

Another thing that is not pretty, is wearing shorts that leave your hind end hanging out.    Leave something to the imagination of men.   There is no need to lay it all out on display for them.    Also, shorts/pants with stuff wrote across your butt.   Sorry but it actually just makes your butt look broader.   You may think it looks cute or sexy or whatever, but its not.   I’ve actually asked my brother and a few of my male cousins about it and they actually said they think it looks dumb and in most cases the wearer just looks cheap.

So go out and get a full length mirror and actually use it!
