Pull up your pants...don't wear them too tight [cringes]...and for goodness' sake! Put on a shirt.

Speedos make me laugh.

I don't understand guys who wear their pants around their knees, but I can relate to pant problems.

First of all, pants that are "the right size" can often be uncomfortable due to the fact that certain apparati need umm... their space. Unless you find just the right cut, pants that stay up under their own power can be quite a pain... literally.

Furthermore, I, personally, have trouble with belts; for some reason, my family has this strange allergic reaction to metal that makes repeated skin contact. If I wear a belt with a metal buckle (99% of belts) without tucking at least my undershirt in, I develop a crazy bad rash on my stomach. It's a pain to have to tuck-in all the freaking time.

I still combat the depantation process by wearing a belt as often as I need to and trying to find pants that fit right. However, the point of this post is that you should probably not be too concerned if every now and then you see a guy with pant problems. If it's not a lifestyle thing, but just an annoying side-effect of wearing comfortable clothing, then suck it up and deal with it. We deal with girls who lean over too much or buy button-up shirts with too few buttons.

Pant problems can be tolerated, it's when guys do it on purpose.

Yes, but a lot of girls seem to freak out over any sign of underwear.

I don't think they realize how often guys see girls' undergarments.

Yeah that is an issue in and of itself.

I don't think it is as bad if you see a little bit of a guys boxers.
Guys, please cover your tighty whiteys!

Concerning the boxers/pants issue, is it a stumbling block to you girls or do you just find it gross?

Stumbling block for me. Before I was saved I used to date a guy like that and for some reason that look is just really attractive to me. Like the whole 'tight pants/little bit of boxers' type thing. I have no clue what it is about that look though.. But yeah.. definite stumbling block.

Alot of the time I find you can't even see the guys boxers because the shirts are so long. But yeah, buy pants that fit. They don't have to be right up at your belly button, because as Nate said, those don't fit so well.

Simply don't look.

Nate is right. Buying tighter pants doesn't turn out so well. I prefer mine loose just because I don't like to be squashed. I do wear a belt though. It does nothing to help at all.

Right, and you should "simply don't look" if you can see our underwear.
I think we can agree that falls under the category of "easier said than done".

Yeah, mtlmouth is right.
And you must have a bad belt if it doesn't work. I'll give you one of mine. They work fine and dandy

I doubt it. My belt is either too tight or too loose. Most belts on me usually are. I'm a skinny guy.

I have a lot to say about the boxers bit. If I am wearing a shirt tucked in, I always have a couple of inches of boxers over my pant line. It's just a whole heck of a lot more comfortable that way. I don't think girls realize just how thick and WIDE boxer waists are. Like,with a normal pairt of girl's underwear, the waist band is probably 75 to 90 percent smaller than a pair of boxers' waist band.

That said, if I am wearing a shorter shirt, or something not tucked in, my boxers generally remain (uncomfortable) hidden.
