Low-slung trousers give their wearers a bad image, according to a US state senator who is behind an advertising campaign telling people to "raise your pants".
美国一名州参议员的议员发起了一场广告运动，告诫人们要“提起你的裤子”，指出穿低腰裤的人会有损形象。
Eric Adams, a state senator from Brooklyn, is behind the $2,000 "Stop The Sag" advertising campaign showing two men in jeans that hang low enough to display their underwear.
Mr.Addams is calling for the end of the sagging trend that has become popular in men's fashion. In an online message posted on YouTube, he said:"You can raise your level of respect if you raise your pants.", while pleading to young people not to "surrender control over your own image".
Mr.Adams said he had had enough after watching a train passenger who wore a particularly low-slung pair of trousers. "Everyone on the train was looking at him and shaking their heads," he said. "And no one said anything to correct it."
