I don’t understand fashion

My guy friends don’t seem to face the same fashion problems that I find myself in.  Most ladies fashion is beyond me.  The mom jeans shorts, I thought those would’ve been waaaayyy gone by now but it seems to only get worse.  And worse.  This may turn into a multi-part series…

First off, JVO posted about “distressed bum detail,” which to me looks like what you try to pull off after a horrible, embarrassing accident when you don’t have a change of clothes with you and just have to own the situation.

If that’s not bad enough, I present:

Extreme Cut Out Jeans.

I don’t think I’m alone here when I say, WHY?!?!  Just what exactly IS the point of these?

First off they are a “high rise pant” (not a fan) with “large statement cutouts on front and back.”  Why don’t you just call a spade a spade… these are only the seams of pants, and the only thing extreme about them is the extreme lack of material.  OH AND DID I MENTION THEY ARE $168?!?!?
