Jeans backwards? All day? Confused

VinegarTits · 11/05/2011 14:41

Surely you would notice your jeans on back to front as you wouldnt be able to fasten them otherwise?

MotherPanda · 11/05/2011 14:43

Dyspraxia...?

SayItWithChocolate · 11/05/2011 14:44

well I didnt understand it either although tbf these jeans he just pulls up, doesnt unbutton and just tightens with a belt. I dont think it was all day with the jeans either, i think hed put them on after his shower to take the bin out but he did have them on from about 7pm until around 10.30

that is just ummmmm weird behaviour... Confused

GooGooMuck · 11/05/2011 14:48

I've heard the dyspraxic thing also.

cannydoit · 11/05/2011 14:49

my ex use to do this, it was a cross between laziness, self loathing and being drunk a lot use to drive me mad.

squeakytoy · 11/05/2011 14:51

T-shirts, and even jogging bottoms, I could understand, but not jeans...

Wasn't there a hip-hop group in the early 90s that used to wear their jeans backwards? Perhaps he's nostalgic.

TobyLerone · 11/05/2011 15:00

Why does it bother you?

chipmonkey · 11/05/2011 15:52

Dyspraxia. Ds2 does this sort of thing at 12.

TotemPole · 11/05/2011 16:26

I've put t shirts on back to front or inside out.

Jeans on the wrong way round is a tad strange though.

TotemPole · 11/05/2011 16:27

If his boxers and/or jeans are back to front, he must notice the first time he goes for a pee. There'd be no hole to let his todger out.Confused

Callisto · 11/05/2011 16:29

DH is quite good at putting t-shirts on inside out, but that is just hiim being lazy/careless. Jeans and boxers inside out is actually quite strange, unless he does have dyspraxia.

chinam · 11/05/2011 16:29

Another vote for Dyspraxia

TobyLerone · 11/05/2011 16:47

Most men IME don't use the hole for peeing out of. They just hoik it up over the top.

controlpantsandgladrags · 11/05/2011 16:56

DH always has his boxers and socks on inside out.........he gets dressed in the dark in the mornings as he leaves for work early!

FutureNannyOgg · 11/05/2011 16:58

It's supposed to be good luck to have your clothes inside out, and bad luck to turn them back, perhaps he is superstitious.
