wearing ones pants around the hips so that they sag down and bunch up around the ankles.

Originally, this was a prison thing that signified that you were another prisoner's property.

Punks were forced to wear their pants this way so it would be easier for their masters to pull their pants down and rape them.

Somehow this became a 1990's fashion trend.

I learned this from watching a TV special on prison life.

The inmate who related the story was an elderly black gentleman who had been sentenced to life in prison and had been there for over fifty years.

He marveled how such a mark of shame became a fashion statement.

He said that younger inmates don't believe him when he tells them but swears it's the truth.

I believed him.

I also think they should let him out already, he's like 80 and I don't think he represents a threat to society.

Sagging in buildings usually results from the gradual deterioration of structural components over time, such as weakening of support beams or foundations. In the case of human skin, sagging occurs due to a loss of collagen and elastin, which are proteins that provide firmness and elasticity to the skin. This loss is a natural part of aging but can also be accelerated by factors like excessive sun exposure, smoking, and poor skincare habits.
