Chaps, by definition, are assless. If they weren't assless, they'd be pants.

By definition, chaps are already assless.

Just sayin'.

actually, assless chaps is a phrase that means wearing chaps without pants under them.

Motorcycle chaps are also popular in the leather subculture, where they often are tightly fitted and worn without jeans or other garments layered beneath them other than a codpiece. Worn in this manner, they are colloquially referred to as "assless" chaps. These chaps are sometimes styled with the zipper on the inside of the leg and colored leather striping down the outside.

And all this time I thought assless chaps were skinny Brits with no butts ;)

I came here not expecting a linguistic battle over the possible redundancy of the phrase "assless chaps."

I came here expecting exactly that.

I'm sorry. I thought this was "hitting on the head with hammers.

I wouldn't mind seeing some attractive ladies wearing nothing but chaps.

Almost NSFW.

true, but not worth the inevitable collateral damage inflicted by pics of big fat hairy men in chaps

No chaps, but close enough for government work.

Oh great, they're going to ruin everything. I can see it now; they'll be right in the middle of nailing PrezO to the cross and a bunch of dudes in leather and Burt Reynolds mustaches will go marching by and spoil the whole thing.

They are Obama's inauguration present.

Perfect!
It will be alot easier to moon Rick Warren when he's doing his inaugural prayer.

 
Etchy333 [TotalFark] 2008-12-31 03:33:45 PM  
I don't think there will be many men in leather chaps at the inauguration.

Think about it, why would a Republican want to go to a Democratic inauguration?

 
real shaman [TotalFark] 2008-12-31 03:40:57 PM  
I came here to also rant that chaps are assless as designed, but I see that we have now been schooled and that the gay agenda continues to subvert our entire society.

Someone must have visited my profile lately! Either that, or great minds and all.

Honestly--had that up for a few months now. ;)

burndtdan: actually, assless chaps is a phrase that means wearing chaps without pants under them.

That would make them, "assful chaps."

AWESOME!! I was worried because I couldn't make it to the first RNC.

I'm wearing assless chaps with a pair of crotchless panties right now, so I'm getting a kick out of these replies.

/mrs. pendejo likes it that way

 
Burn98 2008-12-31 05:59:30 PM  
Who wants to bet me that Fox News takes pictures of people in leather and captions them "Obama Supporters"?

Yeah, sure.

So do you work for Fox News? Want to take my bet? (See above)

The irony is that most gay leather guys I know are republicans....

It'll be around 30 to 40 degrees in DC during the inauguration. There's gonna be a lot of chapped lipped asses in town.

+1000 for the best spin on "assless chaps" on Fark in years.

So, are we talking about a different kind of inaugural balls here?

 
portscanner 2008-12-31 07:15:27 PM  
With that many assless chaps, you are going to end up with chapped asses!

Mid Atlantic Leather Fest?

Reads article...yep. All those religious nuts that voted for Obama and for Prop 8 will be proud. They do this every year on MLK Jr weekend. Every year.

Real men wear acid leather chaps.

 
Dialectic 2008-12-31 08:35:50 PM  
Many will likely arrive the weekend prior to sightsee and attend inaugural balls and other parties.

Any republicans at this gathering of like minded fellows?

 
Danho 2008-12-31 09:04:43 PM  
Because it's Tuesday?

Please, no.
OK, maybe a little.
