Just literally, you just go on your day with no trousers on.
Absolutely.
There is something innately British about a middle class, bald white man with a trouser suit without the trousers.
So a full on shirt, tie, blazer, leather briefcase, financial times, but just with no trousers.
It's something so beautiful, so British.
It happens every year.
Weirdly, this whole thing started in New York.
lovingly it was organized by the stiff upper lip society originally but they uh they sort of stopped getting sort of participating to it about 2023 about three years ago um and they said oh it's run its course it's something that they've stopped doing so one of their own members one of the peoples who was a trouserless decided to continue it so yeah and i think it was like a a
various cities used to have it.
I know New York had it and maybe other sort of large cities had it, but London has kind of kept it going.
It's like they've kept sort of the Zoom going.
You know, we still want to use MySpace.
I think the hygiene thing is a big one because it happens on a Sunday where most people are taking their children down to London to see like museums and like funfairs and shopping.
I do think it's quite odd.
And I think it's more of a of a giggle, a titter rather than titillation.
So it's more of a like a little bit of a laugh and a giggle rather than anything sort of crazy or dangerous or anything like that.
But most Londoners would just like we're so polite here in the UK.
We would just maybe offer them our trousers.
Correct.
I've been on your subway.
