A silent thread for those of us with no ass

Without suspenders and even if my belt is as tight as can be, my pants and underwear will be down by my ankles after walking a few feet. Even with suspenders on, my underwear slides down and bunch up. Diving into a pool head first is only done when no one but maybe my wife is around. Too many instances of my trunks coming off when I hit the water to risk doing that when others are present.

This wasn't much of a problem when I was decades younger and skinny to the point my hip bones stuck out so a tightened belt above the hip bones kept my pants up. Same with swimming trunks that had a string.

No hips, no ass..just a stick walking.

And most of the jeans out today are for curvy girls so jeans often look like
Jodhpurs when I try them on.

Suspenders are a necessity. I also rediscovered bibb overalls.

My doc told me to lose weight. I did and it all came out of my butt. This made a mere slippage into a slingshot situation.

One of those wouldn't fall off!

Heck, a version would work to hold your underwear up, too. Just sew them to a tank top and Bob's your uncle.

16. Skinny dipping is the only reason I ever wanted my own swimming pool

My friends and I used to skinny dip at some of the less known sinkholes south of town. Now they are too well known or part of the National Forest Sinkhole attraction - complete with boardwalks. So if I wanted to skinny dip these days I'd have to have my own pool.

Next year I might buy one of these inflatable ones - for the price if it only lasts one summer, that would be worth it!

I got a screaming deal a few years ago on some North Face swim trunks. Bought two pair for $16! I wear them as shorts. Now here's the thing: they have a real cinch. It's a half inch band of strong webbing material (none of this shoe string crap) that threads through a buckle and keeps everything in place. So be on the look out for some North Face swim trunks!
