Should baggy pants be outlawed in schools? Florida officials think so.

If most of these young men that are "Sagging" knew that the trend started in male prisons and the style was used for a non-verbal signal as an invitation for gay sex, they would probably wear their pants where they belong - on their waists!

I've always been tempted to pants a guy with baggy pants. Especially since they can't chase you after and it would be super easy to just go "Yoink" there goes the pants and just run off. HAHAHA!

There is a reason why underwear is called UNDERwear.

i never really commented on one of these before but this one caught my eye. im about 50/50 on the whole baggy pants thing. i do find it crazy when guys wear their pants half way down and saggin and what not. but on the other half i look at my self and i wear baggy pants because they are the only way i can move freely as i am a pretty big guy. even though i do wear baggy pants for the comfort part i do not wear them half way down and sag'em.

Yes sagging is stupid, but you don't need to arrest people.

it just looks plain stupid and i agree something should be done about it, but this is just ridiculous.

Once in an airport it was so tempting to step on the cuff of an older teens jeans....I didn't....because he might have tripped and fallen, hurt himself or fallen on and hurt someone else. I've also found the style extremely dangerous on an escalator. I find the practice of low hung jeans ridiculous, wasteful, dangerous, dirty,dumb, and totally unnecessary. Then there's the story of college students taking classes in "how to dress for a job"! You figure it!

Baggy pants that show the underwear are indecent expose & vulgar. This fad should carry a large fine.
I don't feel flip flops should be ban, because some people need more air on their feet(for medical reasons) than closed-toed footwear allows.
Uniforms in public schools are totally wrong. A reasonable dress code is fine. Meaning a dress code of wearing clothes that fit & contain nothing vulgar or promoting anything illegal on the clothing.
And colored hair is not distracting.
Schools need to concentrate on teaching & let kids have their style (TO A DEGREE). Baggy pants are not style. They look like they need their diaper changed. AND in prison baggy pants means the man is looking for a boyfriend.So baggy pants are by no means a fashion style.

I have seen students fall from baggy pants. Besides of looking just plain stupid, it is dangerous.

A-IGHHT let them be who they wanna be when they confuse them for some gangstaahs ehht gunna be thei fault soo IDRGAF

I know in our area of Orlando the boys are wearing their pants incrediably low. It is indecident exposure, if a girl was to do the same, she would be in the principle's office immediantly.

Besides guys...most gals like a nice tight set in the rear package!! How the heII can we tell when your pants are so baggy and all we see is a pair of nasty a$$ undies, boxers or otherwise!! Tighten them babies up and show the world your proud of your body and the hard work it takes to keep it fit!

Maybe if someone told them that it started in Southern California prisons as an advertisement that you were willing to be someone's "b!tch", or already were, they'd think twice about wearing 'em that way. Don't believe me? Ask any seasoned probation officer or guard...we know, believe me!

What scares me are the posters who actually seem to think that MINOR getting a FREE education in a GOVT institution have the right to essentally walk around indecently exposed. Unbelievable.

You can also pick out the whiny teenagers' posts. They have no clear grasp on the civil liberties. We're not saying you can't walk your house that way; but school is for learning. Don't like the rules--explore other options.

The blatant disregard for this appalls me. It has gotten way out of hand.

i think it is a cool law!

Yes this is the land of the free but there are consequences to all choices. Are you free to dress with your behind hanging out? Sure, but there is a consequence. You will be judged. Period. By teacher, police, employers, parents, schools and society. Thats just how it is. Why not raise your kids to dress appropriately? Last time I checked I didnt see anyone with a great job wearing booty shorts or saggy pants to work.

As a female, if I wore my pants around my knees showing my butt there would be no question of the indecency. Why do guys get away with it?

I'm glad they are putting a stop to it, I hated the guys who walked around my high school like that. Luckily though, once they graduate they realize that us ladies think it looks ridiculous, and they stop!

I think all schools should have a uniform. Kids are animals and LOVE to pick on other kids that maybe can't afford the best clothes. Even when I was a kid, which was a LONG time ago, it was really important in the pecking order at our school that we wore certain clothes and did certain things. I'm not exactly sure who decided what we should be wearing :P... Anyhow, unfortunately, it's even MORE important to the kids today, so much so that kids are getting beaten up and robbed, by school-mates, of their shoes and jeans and such. Having everyone dress in the same clothes eliminates all of that and evens up the playing field for a lot of kids. The school system is taking too much crap off these kids. They should never have been forced to stop physically punishing kids in school. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a diciplinary problem getting a paddling across the backside in front of the whole class. Shame is a wonderful motivator.

The baggy pants thing is so stupid. I thought it looked ridiculous when I was in high school and that opinion has not changed. I don't want to see your underwear.

That thing about the Bieber shirts is freaking hilarious though. At my school, they made it so if you wore overalls, both straps had to be up or both had to be down. It was a gang deterrant. At one point they were considering bannin team NFL team jackets. Supposedly only gang members wore those. Yeah I wasn't in a gang, and I was determined to wear my Raider jacket. You know how much that thing cost? Well that one never went through.

SAY NO TO CRACK!!
