Guest FourAces Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Sadly I cannot find the original article on this specific ban that I read last night. It mentions the absurd notion that saggy pants started in prisons so inmates could let other prisoners know they wanted sex Anyway the link below has a few sweet pics if you like saggers and also the complete story. Louisiana town bans sagging pants The American Civil Liberties Union of Louisiana sent a letter to the Terrebonne Parish Town Council entreating them to not pass the anti-sagging ordinance, saying that it is unconstitutional.http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/louisiana-town-bans-sagging-pants-article-1.1315857 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest josephga Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 The origin is Prison. When people are locked up in jail, the police take away your belt so that you can't use the belt to commit suicide or to commit violence. The pants would sag. It had nothing to do with wanting sex lol. The trend became very popular with urban teens and gangster rappers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lookin Posted April 14, 2013 Members Share Posted April 14, 2013 I knew somebody here would have the skinny! Perhaps the gangsters could be persuaded to start sporting suspenders - delicate enough, of course, to prevent hanging oneself but robust enough to hitch up one's drawers.
