Also girls don't look weird without a belt. If you are a guy and your shirt is tucked in, without a belt for some reason just looks empty and weird. I'm not sure if it's the belt loops, the waist band, or just the lack of a decorative interruption in the outfit, but it just looks weird. On a girl like in the picture, even with belt loops it doesn't look weird. I think it's because the natural hip/butt shape makes the visual change on its own, where guys don't really have that.

    Having a butt is nice. Having a butt that clothing manufacturers design for is rare. How many memes about inconsistent clothing sizes do you want?

    Guys don't usually wear tight high waisted jeans, unless they're fabulous.

    Some of us have butts but also grew up with hand me downs and needed belts until they fit

    Am guy, and rarely use a belt. The trick is actually working out your glutes. I'm proud of my dump truck.

    I got an accidental donk like that. Didn't even know it was happening.

    Me, learning resistance training: 'oh, so the squat is the ultimate full body functional exercise. Great I'll just do a bunch of those '

    A year later I was trying to figure out why ass was jiggling when I went down the stairs.

    Who needs a belt? That's what the drawstring is for.

    I am a serious professional adult.

    I most recently put on jeans to attend a meeting where I signed for my house.

    When I got to said house, I walked into the kitchen (not visible from any public area) and dropped my pants. I haven't worn a belt since.

    Belts are for wimps. Real men wear suspenders.

    Suspenders AND a belt. I need the belt to clip my work tools on, and the suspenders to keep my pants that now weigh 15 kilos from falling off.

    Somebody's selling hooded robes now, I keep getting ads for the damn things. They don't call them robes, they call them hoodies of some variety, and they cost way too much for what's effectively a blanket with a hole on the middle.

    I was thinking seat belts and immediately thought of Graham:

    One of my most favorite reviews I ever read on a pair of pants was "I'm football shaped and these cover my ass crack" Men don't have standards, they have minimum requirements.

    Pants that cinch tight around the waist and also are large enough to handle dat ass can be hard to find.

    Pants need at least three sizes: Waist, inseam, badonk.

    I hate pants shopping for exactly this reason. Even when it's the same exact pants they can fit differently.

    Rumor has it that these days one can order jeans online, specifying their measurements, and it's not even very expensive. I've seen a website doing this over ten years ago, in my region that is poor compared to the Europes and the US.

    I saw a post years ago referencing the variations even among the exact same size and pattern jeans. The jist of it was, due to the way the fabric is stacked, as the die presses down through it to cut the pattern into the stack the fabric stretches/gives different amounts depending on where it is in the stack, it can be really exacerbated by dull blades too.

    I don't even know how true it is but I've also noticed the wild sizing variation in jeans, even relatively good brands. You really have to go try them on if you want to make sure they fit the way you want.

    I feel like that specific anatomy causes some pants to slide down.

    I'll just say one thing, lack of pockets in women's clothing. Even pants that look like they should have pockets frequently don't. Like, the jeans the person in the picture is wearing, the two butt pockets, probably just decorative.

    I'd say most women's jeans have functional back pockets because that's where the phone is usually stashed. But in her case I don't see a phone there and it's not in her hand, so those pockets might be decorative.

    I got a fat ass and a big tummy, so I benefit from a belt oftentimes.

    Almost bought a pair when I was in Japan, now mind you they're around $200-$300, they're not sliding down... I dare you try on a pair of heavy weight denim jeans and try to squat. A new episode of Ow My Balls.

    What can I say, my weight has been known to fluctuate and I'm not buying a new wardrobe until it settles.

    I don't think I own a pair of pants that need a belt. They are nice for hanging things from though.
