To get baffled by the teen boys who can't get jeans past their thighs?

I know I am sounding like my Granny, and am obviously deeply uncool, but just how do they manage to walk without their jeans falling to the floor? And it means that you get to view said persons 'grundies' in the gap between t-shirt (above buttocks) and jeans (below buttocks), which in a teen boy's world is not really an attractive sight.
I know it is only a trivial matter, but I mean, hipsters I get. I like them, and i wear them, but surely this is a step to far?

Or am I just being a bit Victor over this...?

I agree - the girls do look silly when they do it too.
It's not very lady-like is it??

Oh dear, I'm only 22 and most people my age dress like this.. They'll think I'm a granny in disguise if they ever knew what I thought about it!

Both DSs do this at home (can't be bothered to get their belts) but not in public. They don't want "jack-ups" apparently.
