Panty Pants

I’ve said this before and I will say it again, I am short.   I am 5’2” which means I almost always have to have my pants/jeans hemmed.  I have come to accept this fate and I generally don’t take issue with it.  What I do have an issue with are short “length” pants.  Sounds like a great idea right?  Pants already short so that you won’t need to go out and get everything hemmed before you wear them.  Well there is a gigantic problem with short length pants.  Instead of simply shortening the inseam, clothing manufacturers shorten the rise as well when making short length pants.  This means that any time I am in the market for short length pants I also better want them low rise.  I do not like low rise pants, especially on me.  I don’t want to be tugging at them all day or showing my parts to people every time I sit down.  I also do not have the butt for low rise meaning that I have a butt.  Why can’t the pant be shorter and the rise stay the same?  I do not know the answer to this perplexing question but the only solution then is to buy regular length pants so that the rise is normal because I do not want my business showing all over town.  Is this some sort of tailoring/alterations conspiracy?  Probably not; it’s most likely stupidity on the part of the manufacturer.  Below are some pictures I found of low-rise in the extreme. 

I like to call this picture WTF?  Sadly these jeans are offered on more than one site, just Google it and see! (For more enjoyment Google Men’s Ultra Low Rise Jeans)
