[edit] It is interesting when it is discarded

In Europe Lederhosen are usually associated with the kind of humorous soft-porn films that come out of Bavaria, with twin-ponytail blonde high-school girls and men in knee trousers. These movies are such a crap that they are actually funny. 82.131.210.162 08:26, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

What a nonsense. You're mixing things. You're probably refering to "school girl and teacher" porn movies that were inspired by the Schulmädchen-Report. I am not aware that this crap is exclusively coming from Bavaria, neither am I aware that lederhosen are a fundamental part of such movies. Furthermore lederhosen are not commonly associated with sexuality. I myself had a typical lederhose when I was a little boy (that kind of lederhose small boys are wearing in Heimatfilms). Believe me if you ask random Germans about "lederhosen", they will think about: Bavaria, Alps, Oktoberfest and Heimatfilm but nothing else and I am pretty sure that people from outside of Germany will connect it with Bavaria and Oktoberfest.

I am from the USA and my last name is Lederhos. My ancestors probably had something to do with the original creation of the Lederhosen. I think of Lederhosen as what they are. Not associated with anything sexual. Unless I am wearing them. Then they are very sexy. :-) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.222.28.93 (talk) 05:07, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
