Tell us something.: A long time chatty Chiffer but have been absent for almost two decades. Returned in 2022 and still recognize some names! I also play anglo concertina now.
Funnily enough, the subject of trousers came up in my linguistics class this morning. We were trying to figure out if there was any irregular plural that ended with "s", and came up with singulars that end in "s" instead (trousers and scissors, for some). Then I was asked if it's called a "trouser press" or a "trousers press" in America. I said we don't have trousers.
Tell us something.: This is the first sentence. This is the second of the recommended sentences intended to thwart spam its. This is a third, bonus sentence!

Yes, jeans would be trousers, blue or otherwise.
Any full-length leg covering which topographically looks like a plate with two holes in comes under the trouser banner.
I considered pedal pushers, plus fours and breeches, but I figured I'd run out of poll options.
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that schwing

These days, when I wear jeans, the result is definitely pants.
