What is the purpose of wearing the pants down below the underwear?

I am curious to know why these people decided to start doing this. Please just respond seriously. Thanks

    It has to do with Jail. When you go to jail they take your belt and as a result your pants sag. These kids are trying to look like jail hardened thugs. Totally stupid.

    I wish I knew, but it's appalling. I saw a clip of Lil Wayne at the MTV awards, SO PATHETIC that people continue to support someone like that.

    Are you talking about Superman? He's the only person I know who wears his underpants on the outside.

    I was told it was something to do with loose fitting prison clothes and prison gangs. I feel embarrassed for them.
