Louisiana Mayor outlaws "low slung trousers"

[JoeMama 0]

I bet there'd be follow-up legislation to fine people for wearing clothes in a way that highlights the "natural" curves of the human body. Pretty soon women would only be able to wear house-dresses and the men would have to wear trousers that can't show more than a 1/2" of ankle and which go all the way up to the waist. Everyone would be shopping at thrift stores for old-man clothes.

It works for all those old Italian guys on The Sopranos

i have seen some saggy trousers that don't even cover the butt. and they wear the belt right under their butt too... or right across it... .. and they have their boxers completely showing

one of our nephews dresses like that.. I think it looks really strange

I think the worst dress style is "emo"

They wear skin tight clothes, dyed black hair, and mope around the mall, all depressed. They need a slap to the face.

yeah that was going on when I left Brazil, kids hanging out at malls gothic style. It's a kid's thing, everybody go through a weird phase.

Mullets should be banned - an affliction which seems to be particularly acute in the South

Dear god, is that trend still around? I thought it had already gone out of style.

Me too. My 15 yr. old boy wears his pants this way and it's almost comical, but I know he's just going with the norm.

There's also the emo pants - where guys where women's hip hugger jeans. Crazy kids

I don't get that style - its kind of like Chav fashions in Britain. To me - it looks to me like the person just rushed out of the toilet. All that's missing is a length of toilet paper stuck to their shoe.

In England having a tribal design tatto on your lower back is SO chav.

Many a Saturday night here in I've seen disgusting, fat female chavs with their flab rolls falling out everywhere bending over to puke and exposing their butt cracks. NOT nice. Perhaps the Louisiana law makers would consider enacting an ordinance here, too?

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

I've actually seen a fair few English tourists like that in NYC - and to be fair its not just the women but guys too. All seem to be well into their 30's and apparently believe that they can still get away with the same fashions they wore in their teens and 20's.

I can't understand the point of those tribal tattoos - its not like the person has any tribal affiliations to make it actually have meaning for them. Can't understand why people get tattoos that have no symbolic meaning for themselves.

Do these kids have parents?? There's no way my parents would have let me out of the house looking like that!

That clothing style always makes me wonder if the wearer has "filled their pants."

All my tattoos doesn't have anything to do with my culture, actually they have nothing to do with each other. Some people (that know sh!t about tatoos) think it's weird the mix - tribal, hindu, japanese. But it's a body art and I know their meaning, I chose them because they have a meaning for me, they represent a time of my life, and they're unique.

So what you sugest when a person decide to have a tattoo is to have those hearts with ''I love whomever'', because that would definitely be a tattoo that has a meaning in the life of the person that decided to get it. Or hey, maybe americans should only tattooed US flags.

You don't have to have any affiliation, because if you think about it, lots of tattoos don't have an specific meaning in people's life, it's a body art, it's something that makes the person unique. Like a dragon - very common tattoo, do people have dragons as pets so they decide to make that tattoo? A star, the sun, the moon, do they have a meaning? What would it be exactly?? That they know the moon exist? Or maybe they must worship the sun?

I get really sick of all the judging and criticism.

I would actually get a tattoo but I find a lot of that tribal stuff cliche. Don't see the point in having something everyone else has.

There's also the possibility that this could happen...
