I... still can't figure out what the term means from the definition provided. I gather it was an inside joke that went places, but it's still pretty baffling in its current state. Moar details plz? --Vee 18:32, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm not entirely sure, but as I understand this, it's just the phrase used in a popular icon meme. You know, an icon of some character or pairing you like in an outfit, and the icon has a phrase with "gay pants" on it. There isn't a deeper meaning besides squee.--Ratcreature 18:39, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
Your clarification helps a lot, thanks.--Vee 01:35, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

A quick question.

Any relation to the HP Draco in Leather Pants fannish trope/cliche?

This article would be better with some example icons

Anyone have ones they'd like to share? --Sherrold 17:58, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

I think all of the original ones are linked here, along with a link to how the phrase originated: http://www.thechicagoloop.net/tzikeh/pants/ --rache 21:35, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
