Talk:Low-rise pants

Picture wanted
I'm dying for some pictures. --Tmh 22:04, 8 March 2006 (UTC)


 * We have pictures now. Unfortunately the theme implies that the only people who wear them are pornographic actresses. --Juventas (talk) 02:22, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I've got a picture, but it is deamed as "unrelated image" and thus removed.

Removal
I removed the following paragraph from the article for bad grammar, spelling, and general bad flow in the article. It used to be the first paragraph under the 1990s-2000s revival section. "a separate style from "hip huggers", Brazilian and Lowrise jeans where already being worn and stylized regularly by the Hispanic and Black Caribbean, and African American Communities for decades, especially in Brazil. Throughout the Hispanic, and Caribbean world many young girls and older women where regularly wearing ultra lowrise jeans. " 24.27.220.216 08:39, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Lack of proper references and citations
Various portions of this article were taken from original research, yet the source was not properly cited. Should I just add them to the article ? I ask because it was once listed as a source, but appear to have been improperly removed.

30 cm?
I seriously doubt that the average "rise" is 30 cm. This article needs to be checked. Constants (talk) 19:28, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Need worldwide views, not just US
This article is so US-biased it credited Britney Spears with popularising the bumster when Alexander McQueen developed them and was showing them five years earlier in 1996. The whole article is written from a US perspective only. I've added a bit about McQueen - with references, which the rest of the article lacks - but am not qualified to write more. It needs editors with a worldwide perspective, not just a US one. 86.150.103.254 (talk) 14:29, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

Whale tail image
We seem to have an edit war over whether to include an image of a male's whale tail in the article. Nymf and myself, Juventas, removed it. Peaboy and 218.186.18.231 (possibly the same person) reverted the removal.

There are several reasons I don't think it belongs: it's not representitive of the fact that the vast majority of wearers do not expose their underwear as part of the fashion, men who do expose their underwear as part of the fashion are much more likely to choose sagging (fashion), and the image quality is so poor it's not even clear that he's wearing jeans. There is a whale tail article, and it does not include this image (or any other of a male). --Juventas (talk) 01:42, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

Is the picture necessary?
The one with the girl dressed in white, nipples clearly visible through the top. I know WP:UNCENSORED, however, I am sure there is a less sexual picture, given that this isn't an article that needs to be sexual. Spiderone 19:51, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
