The version I can't fathom are those jeans which have very structured, regularly spaced holes neatly cut into them.
(Or is this some kind of post-modernist irony?)

How about a fashion where blue jeans are made with a dark blue area to make it look like you've pissed your pants?

I am glad to have never encountered this concept before, and have mixed feelings about learning about it (maybe if I hadnrCOt, it would just die away without me ever learning about it?)

I considered buying sucgh a pair. Then I wouldn't need to use panty liners any more.

PS. Is "panty liners" specifically for women?

Yes. Panties are conventionally womenrCOs clothing.

If so, what do you call those for men?

I would use the term rCLincontinence wear,rCY but how you phrased it is much more
entertaining, thanks!

Other liners were available for shipping - back a bit.

If it is any consolation, real life period costumes
did not have any stoppers, let alone full ones.
It was one of those unmentionables that Victorian ladies
