When straight guys sag their pants..

Showing off their arse in their underwear or sometimes even their crack:

Do they intend to be presenting hole to gay men? I mean, I can't imagine it is for the girls. What would a girl know what to do w/ a guy's hole?

No, OP. That is not what they intend.

R2, Sagging began in prison as a means to let tops know that one is a bottom. So it was a form of presentation.

I knew it originated in prison, but I was not aware it was a secret signal. What happens when a str8 guy sags in prison? TeeHee!

Yes, op. You cracked the code. Next time you see this, go up to the guy and start rubbing his ass and ask if you can fuck him. He'll love it.

R3 Sagging began in prison because prison uniforms are not tailored and prisoners are not allowed to wear belts (as they can be used as a weapon).

If you really believe that crap about sagging being a covert way for bottoms to let tops know they are looking for dick, then you need to know there is no Santa Claus or Easter Bunny

"What would a girl know what to do w/ a guy's hole?"

They figure it out.

R6, You have no clue about gay prison culture.

Yes R8 I do. A few of my friends have been to prison (not that I am bragging)

Funny story: A friend related a story about how one of these young, 21-year-old skater-punks passed him and a group of about 6 other burly bear-Marys having brunch in an outside street patio.

Skater-guy had a delicious, round, plump ass that he was presenting in near see-through white boxers. Of course, one or two of the guys piped in loudly about what a delicious bottom-butt he had (I guess loud enough for him to hear). Soon after he passed them by on the sidewalk, and hears comments on his butt, he hikes his jeans up real fast.

No, that is incorrect. Sagging grew out of the thug culture glorifying prison life.

As another poster stated belts are not allowed in jails/prisons so those loose fitting trousers "sag". Why straight men/boys especially white ones took hold of the thing is anyone's guess but many in the AA community do not like it at all.

When you have some sort of behind back there obviously the sagging is limited as the pants have something to "hold on to". But when your hinny is like flap jacks.....

Off topic, but...I took my nephew to the library for a kids holiday party. This one male librarian was about 350 lbs. So large that he didn't actually walk but more like he lumbered forward. He dropped a stack of papers on the floor and bent over to pick them up (bending over was almost impossible). His pants were already sagging because they couldn't find a place to snag onto the fat. I digress. He bent over and his pants came down so far that you could see his ENTIRE ASS. His underwear was stuck in his pants. His ass was pale and full of 'dimples' and had a nasty line of hair around his crack. The mother sitting beside me saw it and said: Oh, Jesus Christ! and then she burst out laughing and left the room. It was so uncomfortable watching this dude try to pull his underwear and pants up while standing in a circle of mothers, and me the fag uncle, with poor children sitting on the floor. I pretended something was stuck on the bottom of my shoe.

R11, Snopes says it's false but doesn't provide any evidence. I was told by black people that it came from prison and was a gay thing.

R15 also sags his jeans, presenting his hole to lecherous bears.

Ok, there seems to be wide variation as to the origin and meaning of "sagging" depending upon who you ask.

The "sexually available" in prison seems a bit of a stretch IMHO, but there you are then.

'Sag' is not a transitive verb.

... It indicates they recently lost weight, but are too lazy to buy a new set of trousers or wear a belt.

R14 It does come from prison but is not a gay thing.

One of my friends went to prison for manufacturing meth and he told me that with only two exceptions every prisoner had sagging pants. Those two prisoners where morbidly obese and weighed in excess of 400 pounds each.

I wonder which is the more likely scenario?

that particular prison population was made up of 3000 bottoms being serviced by only two tops (who coincidently were morbidly obese) or

you are full of shit

White guys think it is cool and hip. It is not.

R14 what are you talking about? Snopes always provides sources for its articles.

R22, Anybody can post sources. However, the sources have to be checked and verified. Those sources speak nothing to where sagging came from. Thus, that particular snopes page is no good. People put snopes on a pedestal but fail to realize it's just one man and one woman who simply doo a Google search and get paid for it. Just like with Wikipedia, if the sources aren't legit and don't actually provide evidence for the claims in the article, then it's not legit.

Hmmmm we have plastic carts at work for, well work. Someone had written "Saggin Ni" on the top of one of them in magic marker. It came round me a couple of times til I finally got tired of it and finished writing what whoever started to write - "Saggin Niggas". Soon after all the carts got power washed.

LOL R10. I'm sure that skater boy's parents, teachers, school administrators had been trying for ages to get him to hike his pants UP.

Just goes to show you that often times in life it just takes a bear or a Muscle Mary to do a responsible adult`s job.

it's a style thing. guys like to sag their pants...high schoolers of every race. Now that skinny jeans are in, it's even worse. Baggy shirts used to hide the undies, but now they're wearing tight shirts with sagging jeans(practically leggings). I work in a high school. Seeing the new trends makes me feel SO old even though I graduated H.S. in 2003.

the irony is that I don't really see gay men or kids sagging their pants.

Wiggas like Justin Timberlake and Justin Bieber have done much to promote the ghetto "thug" culture to the young white demographic, and made tons of money doing so.

So much of what young white kids and adults consider "cool" is directly from African-American gang/thug culture. From wearing saggy pants, gold chains, various bandanas (supposedly to signal gang affiliation), to skinny white girls with no behinds trying to "twerk".

The guys call each other "nigga" as in "that's my nigga", or bro/brah, etc...

Long story short white children/teens/young adults have embraced and some totally love the hip-hop/rap culture of African Americans.

IMO the claim that it was a way to basically "present hole" in prison is a homophobic myth. Prison origin, sure. But I think people wanting to criticize the trend concocted the gay association to try to shame teens out of it. "You think you look cool and gangsta, but you're actually advertising your ass to homos!"

Zac and Bieber really were presenting hole.

Heterosexual Extraordinaire Justin Theroux presenting:
