Talk:Mom jeans

To fix this article
To start with how does the article open with "its a humorously pejorative term?" Humor is defined as being subjective. The old adage "everything that's funny hurts somebody," comes to mind, suggested that everything perjorative is humorous. If you mean that its generally used in an innocuous sense, say that, however, DONT. SAY. SOMETHING. IS. FUNNY. AS. IF. ITS. A. FACT. IN. AN.

This is a surprisingly mainstream concept to get a speedy. Editors who have never heard of something should do the least bit of sleuthing to find out if it's true or not, rather than guessing way outside of their field of knowledge.

This areticle needs to have sources added to it, including a reference to the urban dictionary. It also needs a picture--maybe David can move outside of his usual arena and find a good image.















They're even making a come back according to the New York Times.

reference 3 is broken, don't know how to fix it though —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.73.176.20 (talk) 18:22, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

This is silly
"abnormally high waist" Like everything else in fashion, the waist height of jeans rises and falls with the times - the word "abnormally" is ridiculous. There is no "normal" in fashion trends, there is only "currently fashionable". The oft-repeated idea that jeans with natural waist lines don't flatter any figures is just wrong; low waists make the torso appear longer and the legs shorter and look worse on many people, and in any case, it is as predictable as the sun coming up that in a few years low waists will be out again and everyone will be laughing at how ugly they are. Anyone who doesn't realize this just hasn't been around long enough. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.87.57.173 (talk) 00:20, 29 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Being the non-conformist that I am, I do not go along with what is popular which includes the latest and newest fashion trends. I am 52 years old and I absolutely LOVE to wear "Mom Jeans" as they are perfect for someone who is my age and body shape.
 * This article that bashes on and criticizes "Mom Jeans" just makes me want to embrace and wear "Mom Jeans" even more.
 * I do not allow other people and their "OPINIONS" to influence my fashion decisions and tastes. I like to wear what I like to wear and I for one do not care what others think. Unlike most people, I for one know how to think for myself without allowing others to tell me what I should and should not wear.
 * The person who wrote this article probably thinks that wearing these "modern day" trashy looking jeans with rips, tears, and holes in them is fashionable and cool.
 * It really is sad and disturbing just how trashy our society has become. Trashiness is praised and decency is looked down upon these days in the classless "Toxic 21st Century. What a warped society we have become.  No class at all. It is only a matter of time before they start manufacturing brand new cars that have body damage to them such as dents, scratches, with peeling and faded paint with a cracked windshield and people start purchasing them. 69.11.161.35 (talk) 07:05, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

This article is offensive. So for all of us with a muffin top should all of us just go around wearing low waisted jeans with our belly hanging over our waist/belt? Do you consider that hip? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.11.160.60 (talk) 09:27, 9 September 2017 (UTC)

By the way, not all jeans are above the ankle some are full length 86.19.166.109 (talk) 11:11, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
