judgy pants are judgy knickers and not judgy trousers.

[ZombieComforts]

Please settle this issue once and for all.

I thank you.

saltyseadog DH is from the NW, and also calls trousers pants. We have had many a discussion about this.

Judgy pants are worn high up, Simon Cowell style, underneath the trousers.

GwendolineMary - are you Superwoman?

Oh Great, Thank you all for ruining my affectionate term for undergarments. Now I won't be able to say Panties without thinking of dirty old men .

Oh well guess I still have Knickers.

I imagine Judgypants to be big white Y-fronts.

I always imagine them as those polyester straight-legged trousers with the high, elastic waist that some elderly ladies insist on wearing.

ok, so I have to admit, until this thread, I thought judgey pants wear worn on the outside. I was picturing too-tight riding breeches 6&TID=nextagCLS&EID=X1845001&catalog_code=1X845&zmam=1460880&zmas=1&zmac=36&zmap=Z1-3556
worn with a polo shirt..... or maybe with a houndstooth hunting jacket, a hair net, and sherry breath

My judgey pants are massive beige knickers with Judgey written on them at the front, in red.
I feel MN should have an online shop with these and bags with the MN logo on and perhaps a T-shirt which says 'I have my Judgey Pants on' Oh and those in toddler sizes of course

omg judgy pants are DEFINITELY worn underneath...

judgy pants goes hand in hand with "dont get your knickers in a twist about XYZ" that proves it, judgy pants are big knickers like bridget jones only bigger! def not trousers

oh and you hoist them right up under your boobs and fold your arms like les dawson

Well this thread has got me worrying about smarty pants now

Pants are trousers, in the North. They are also underpants.
Judgeypants must be trousers. They just must be... Although I don't know why...

Mine are like my smarty-pants except that the fit is slightly smugger.

the spelling is 'Smartie' Pants ..and yes.. they are made of glued together round coloured shell coated mini chocolates...never good to wear in summer...

Mine are flesh coloured and massive like Bridget Jones' but baggier. In this house they're called knickers though. Only boys wear pants. Under their trousers. My NZ MIL refers to Jocks. Also she insists there's a difference between a jersey and a pullover but I don't know what it is!

Smartie pants are the navy gym-knicker sort. Fact.

As an aside, haven't seen that gavel for a while.

Many folk say pants for trousers - not just the US. Even my Irish friend uses pants, Israeli, Filipino, Aussies. On second thoughts - maybe we are the only ones using 'trousers'.

We say trousers in Aus, but it refers to a more tailored style of "Pant". The bottom half of a suit, for eg, are trousers.

Flisspaps fortunately DH, unlike MIL, has mastered that trousers are trousers ( thank the lord). Interesting that they are all from Lancashire!
