You're pushing ALL my buttons with this one, Goodness!

I'll be back tomorrow to have at this one!

It's ridiculous. No fashion "trend" has ever compared to that mess. Why doesn't somebody they respect, tell them that they look stupid? Could it be because there is nobody that they respect? They don't even have self-respect!!!

I don't like it, but I imagine that this happens in every generation. The mature adults cannot fathom why the younger generation dress the way they do, listen to the music they listen to, etc.

I'm surprised it's lasted as long as it has, or gone as far as it has.

Sagging pants are not fashionable, nor were they ever meant to be. With the concept starting in PRISONS as a way for men to show they're available for sex, it never ceases to amaze me how cool young men believe they are dressing this way. Hip hop culture? Arguable. Peer pressure? Maybe. But what it comes down to (in my opinion) is what parents allow. We buy the clothes, make the rules and set the limits - just as our parents did. But I think our generation is soft on discipline and standards. We didn't create the problem (or did we?), but we're slow to correct or change situations too, if at all.

We all remember the Isley Brothers' "It's Your Thang, Do What You Wanna Do"...and we did, until our parents told us to stop. *LOL*

Youths rebel - it's a part of life, but it's up to parents to continue to guide them down the right path, not give up in frustration.

I hate it in the highest degree of hate. If they truly knew the nature of and the history behind that hot mess I beleive they may think twice about doing it. Parents need to take back control of their man child and teach them. I also feel that if they were approached by enough gay men or other men posing to be gay to make a point about this horrible fad maybe they will stop doing it.

I absolutely hate it. I'm sure our parents thought the same of some of the fads we tried, but I really, really dislike this one. I even saw someone sagging at church. Gimme a break. That's when I had to break my silence.
