Spiritually Speaking, why is a pair of pants a single item?

Same thing with panties. I only have one butt. :/

I bet you weren't expecting an answer to this. Pants originally were two separate legs which were tied together once they were put on. Later they were joined but were still called a pair of pants. To make this relevant to Religion and Spirituality......Jesus never wore pants.

Etymology, my dear sir!

Originally, a pant leg, referred to a covering for only one leg. However, once a garment was devised which covered both legs simultaneously, it was called "pants."

Well the bible says that "[pants] are worth much more than one item, but less than two" (Bullshit 4:13)

You can always cut your pair of pants with your pair of scissors.

Yeah, I know,right?

How about a pair of sunglasses?

True there are two lenses but, only one frame.

Pair of underwear?

Happy New Year to you and yours.

Be safe!

Because you are my future husband.
