I'd heard that the whole baggy trousers thing came from kids who's parents couldn't afford to buy them new clothes so they got hand-me-downs from their older brothers. So a kid with trousers two sizes too big wasn't to be messed with cos he had a big brother who would duff you up. But that explanation isn't funny!  Edit: two/too. I think I actually read it in the front of a Banksy book, so I make no claims for its veracity, and am perfectly happy to trust Snopes over Banksy. |

The story I heard is that it originated in prison, but it was because they didn't let inmates have belts or pants that fit.

But that explanation isn't funny! Everything I've heard of regarding the subject from some prison guards I know was because they take the belts away from prisoners so their pants don't necessarily stay up. Never heard of that one though. |

According to Snopes it is due to the fact that belts are prohibited in prison, and that's what I've always heard as well. Shoestrings are also prohibited because they, along with belts, were used as weapons in prisons prior to the '70s when the objects were finally banned in most institutions.
I have, however, heard a similar story as the picture above, but with boxer shorts. If a person was willing to be the bottom they'd wear their boxers backwards so the flap would expose their derriere. If I had to wager a guess I'd say that the whole "sagging = gay" myth has simply been perpetuated by people who dislike the practice.

Probably a bit of class-ism and racism thrown in there too. Bigots aren't always restricted to one field of expertise.

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe
