At the shopping centre yesterday I was confronted by similar views to the one in the picture. I can not understand the youth of today who seem to think it is ok to walk around with their trousers half way down their legs. STOP IT. STOP IT. STOP IT. ( I hope you noticed how I refrained from using vulgar language to describe these morons).
You look absolutely ridiculous. You do not look smart and the rest of the population DO NOT think you look smart either. No one wants to see your backside hanging out of your trousers. It is not fashionable to look like a moron.
Please have a bit of pride in your appearance. A bit of self respect. Dress properly like you should do and have a bit of respect not only for yourself but for your fellow human beings. I bet your parents are really proud of you for walking around showing off your great big butt.
I thought the following photo summed up perfectly the shame you should be feeling and I hope it shames people into wearing their clothes as they should be worn.

I thought that particular fashion fad had passed by now. They do look ridiculous, and I can't believe it isn't uncomfortable. It just makes me think they look like a good target for a mugger because surely they couldn't run after the perpetrator with their trousers half down like that?

OH good grief no. It is very much alive and on display in London and the South. Probably more in @Gillygirls area than where I live. They were out in force yesterday in Bluewater.

He surely is, I cannot understand why they think to "look cool" showing their underwear.

I have come across many such situations in public places. Fashion has somewhere lost its decency.

It is common decency and self respect. These kids obviously have none!

@garymarsh6 A few start with the stupidity and few others follow it blindly as a trend. Luckily not all youth like it.

We don't see quite so much of this nowadays but I'm sure the clothes get lower on those who do follow this ridiculous fashion. I've seen at least one person who had his jeans so far down that you could see the entirety of his underwear. I did wonder how on earth he was managing to walk like that. The worrying thing was that he was not a 'young' person but someone who looked about my age (which is somewhere between 20 and 50 :D )

@garymarsh6 Yep, somewhere in between. Sometimes, I feel closer to one than the other. I am only slightly nearer to 50 than to 20 :D

@garymarsh6 Maybe it's trending or they aren't aware of what they're doing!

When I see this, there is always a part of me that wants to pull the pants all the way down--I refrain though
