HEMLINES may rise and fall with every passing season, but jeans just seem to keep falling. And falling. And falling. Denim that actually hits your waist - instead of your hips - seems to have gone the way of the dinosaur.

Good Grief!
What a homely child. Someone ought to tell her to do her roots, wipe her nose, wash her face once in a while, and sew the waistband back on her pants.

Some time ago, when my daughter was in HS, she wanted to dress somewhat like the photos shown below. Now, I am definitely not a prude, and FReeper trinity1 can pull the look together, but I put my foot down (this was in the late '80s) Now, after the screaming died down, she realised that her parents (yes, we are a 2 parent family, and have celebrated our 34th) may have had a good point, and began dressing for success. Although all was not perfect (she got divorced in 9 months, we are happy to have her home with us again) she has done quite well for herself. IMHO, this trend ranks right up there with multiple piercings as the worst career advancement tool that exists..
While I must admit that it is sometimes pleasant to look on such inspiring sights as the wearers of the jeans mentioned in the article (please don't mention this to mrs gwmoore LOL) Those young females are going to find that if they are determined to dress like ho's, they are gonna be treated like ho's, and at some point, all the agitprop about "it's not her fault" is going to fall apart. Learning how to dress for the real world, and a real career is a valuable learning experience that is vital. To allow this in the schools is just plain dumb, and will result in the usual outcome.

Seems to me that everyday there is less and less wrapping on the present. I feel like theyve gone and cancelled Christmas.

Jelly-brained morons like her should not be allowed to reproduce. She can't ensure that her daughter not leave the house dressing and acting like a slut/ho? Should not be allowed to reproduce? Sheesh...she could just about reproduce without moving her clothes. Very sad.

With a face like that, I know why she is attempting to draw the male eye south.

At least boys aren't running around in banana hammocks.Guys have been showing off their boxers for years. Lately, they've even been slouching while the outer pants have been barely hanging on.
