Hate to say this but it was fashionable when I was in first year [of course this was largely limited to ratted out blue jeans]. Hate to say it but that was before most posters on this board were born.

Fair enough, but I don't remember there always being stuff that was already torn when you bought it.

"Pre-distressed" may be a more precise description.

Let me ask you this. If a dude gives me a BJ, he's gay but I'm not, right?

You know what, nevermind.

Wear whatever jeans you want

That is my understanding, although there are instances where the recipient is also gay. Being the non-giver is "necessary but not sufficient" to not be gay.

If I know what "manscaping" is, does that matter?

I say yes. Having the flag of any country in the UK as your avatar also increases your chances.
