Double M's Life Rules #7: Don't Get Duped by Black Pants

Posted by Double M



Black pants can make even a mediocre butt look amazing, but remember what it looked like in other pants.

This is my first life rule that I discovered completely on my own and I remember the moment so vividly that it is burned into my memory. In high school, I was sitting in math class and, in standard high school fashion, I was paying attention to the girls in my class instead of whatever else was happening.

One girl looked particularly amazing that day and I didn't understand how I could have missed it in the past. I started checking through things that would be different from normal: Hair? No. Sweater? No. Shoes: No. Pants? Bingo.

I'm not sure why it clicked in math class, but suddenly examples were everywhere. One day average and the next day amazing with the only difference being black pants.

Here's the thing - never fault anyone for making themselves look better. In fact, if someone is smart enough to wear clothing that makes them look awesome, you should probably applaud them. If you are supposed to dress to impress then they are accomplishing their job.

Just remember: while black pants can make a butt look awesome, more often than not that butt will not be in black pants, and that other time matters too. Don't let them skew your judgement.

What about white pants?

This explains why women will spend outrageous amounts of money on lululemon yoga pants. And you shouldn't complain if your lady does.

@Royalcow - White pants is an upcoming rule.

@MajorLB - True and I do/would appreciate it.

Yes, black yoga pants (2005), black leggings (2010).

Still, the right gray slacks with a slight pinstripe worn will still trump black pants for me.

@makuro I do enjoy a perfectly fitting pair of slacks.

I'm not necessarily saying that black pants are the best of all pants, but I am saying they can be awesome you just shouldn't get duped by them.
