Thread Name: BS: DroopyDrawer Jeans and Body Piercing
Subject: RE: BS: DroopyDrawer Jeans and Body Piercing
I do.
On reading comments here and elsewhere the trend could also be explained as an infantile obsession, ie pre potty dress. Call it 'the nappy look', and in these days of aids and such perhaps the nearest thing to bonking these kids ever got was the odd prick with a nappy pin - which also explains the piercing obsessions.
But, OTOH local statistics here tell another story, however scary it may be; so, of the 150 females in the graduation year of a local HS, 130 YUP one hundred and thirty, all under 17 some under 16, pregnant. The few who aren't have become outcasts.
Perhaps the garb is about perception, which kida fits social history, not lifestyle.
But while its ok for the Julia Roberts/Tom Cruises to wear weird clothes, its another for mucko bucko who would still look like crap in regular clothes.
So perhaps such folks shouldn't be advertising their lack of judgement? that would explain why they always end up in dole ques, food stamps etc etc.
