SAGGING
<p style="text-align: center; "><em>When we talk about saggin or sagging we're usually reminded of the rampant fashion trend that runs amok among our male counterparts. Not much people really know what sagging is or what its history is. Most believe it to be a fashion trend that was adopted in the '90s into the hip-hop culture symbolizing affiliation and rebellion, some know the deeper and slightly darker history in the American prison system where sagging was almost always the case as inmates weren't allowed to wear belts due to suicide attempts and the belt being used as a weapon. It was also seen as a way to show to the other inmates that you were available or swung that way. However there's an even darker history of SAGGIN during the slave trade era. Then it went by a slightly different name, BUCK-BREAKING. During those times homosexual slave masters would publicly rape unruly black male slaves and then make them hang their pants low so as to let other slave masters that they have been broken through, it was a sort of marking one could say. They were still made to wear it low even as they were sold to other slave masters. Then they adopted the name SAGGIN which backwards meant NIGGA. This is the real history behind the SAGGING trend. I do hope we remember this , all of this when we decide to sag our pants as a attempt at looking cool .</em></p>
