First off, I'm gettin red underlined because I was only told verbally that these white people pants are called "cackys," and right-click spell check aint helping. Anyways, we all know white people love those bland ass pants from GAP or Banana Republican but I can't think of one time EVER I seen a black person wear them ? . I wore a few pairs of them cardboard feelin corduroys during school picture day, but thats about it. I thought I saw a brother rockin some cackys one time at a job fair, and I ran up on him to ask what the ? was he doin, but turned out dude was a Hindu with wavy hair.

Anyway, cackys on black folks is some ? you only see on TV like Urkel donning that ? music outfit or Carl in a cops uniform.

    So khakis are white people pants?

    Just as much as the rap game is a black persons art form

    So eminem and all other whiteys shouldn't be in it...

    With that said, I see what you're talking about

    ? kreayshawn and ? ? lookin like skateboarders...

    Oh ? , that's how you spell it. Nah, Dickies don't count toward this because don't white ass white folks wear Dickies unless they're in construction or some grungy skater kid. I mean the pants that white people who wear glasses and loafers and ? be wearin. Pant legs be extra short too, so when they bust that white guy leg cross ? you can see they whole damn 12inch socks.

    You hit the nail on the head basically. White people can listen to hip hop though, but thats the extent of it. And only ? kreyshawn in the figurative sense. Nasty skunt.

    As a youngsta a pair of khakis, some basketball shoes(barkley,jordans,etc.) And a white or black tee was the norm. I guess you mean the whole overall preppy look though where the khakis have a mean crease and are highwaters. Couldn't rock with them unless it was with like a button down lo shirt and a pair of rockports or something. Jeans > though.

    I wear khakis sometimes. But then again, Im a little older and my tolerance for giving a damn what people are thinking decreases everyday.

    When you say khakis are you speaking about those male capri type khakis that old navy advertises?

    Or just khakis that you wear when going to meet people or maybe a date or somethin?

    Dammit these young ass threads in the GnS are starting to get ridiculous. Is this really a question? How old are some of ya'll muffuggas? Is everybody on the IC flippin' burgers, selling dope or detailing cars? Professional black men & just black men in general who are past the age of caring about what the next man thinks wear them ? everyday. smdh
