I put my pants on one leg at a time

…just like every body else.

Well,…maybe except these guys:

But is it art?

I wonder if it as artful ruse by Levi's jeans to create a 'viral' video. Maybe to promote a return to loose fitting jeans. I'd hate to see the out-takes - ouch.

In the 1950's and 60's when men dominated advertising stereotypical impressions of women as inferior or subservient were not only commonplace but usual. It was normal to show women as housekeepers, largely because most wer
