 Pants 

In Canadian and American English, the term pants refers to a long outer garment worn over the hips and legs, which in British English are called trousers (see that article).

Based on the Bible, some Christians believe that women should not wear pants, but only skirts and dresses.


In British English, the term pants refers to men's underpants. It is a catch-all term that can denote anything from thongs to boxer shorts, but all have the common feature that they are worn under trousers.

The word "pants" has acquired humorous connotations in the last few decades, largely among younger people. Many stand-up comedians have used the word as a lightly pejorative term. There is a tendency to use it as an adjective. This usage came to wider attention when it came to light that the then Prime Minister John Major tucked his shirt into his underpants.
