From a practical standpoint this is genius. However, as a parent there are other things I prioritize with my children (over earlier potty training) like teaching them consideration of others’ discomfort and modesty.

I would not judge other parents who employ this because they very obviously have different priorities in their parenting.

But I would never use this outside of our home.

The news portal china.com.cn did a follow-up to this and interviewed three policemen in three different cities in LA county, and none of them knew about the crotchless pants. Here are some quotes.
Lieutenant Dave Elliott in Monterey Park said he would first go up to the parents to enquire about it, and then suggest they do as the Americans do, i.e. using diapers. But he would not fine them.
Captain Whalen Vaughn in Arcadia said he would first enquire about the parents’ sanity and determine if they were suspected of child abuse, when he saw a Chinese toddler wearing such pants urinating or defecating in public. If they were abusing the child, then he would take the child away from the parents. If not, he might fine them.
Captain Devane Ane in Temple City said he would ask them to use diapers and clean the pooh and would not fine them, because it was the same as when people walked their dogs, the dogs would crap, and their masters should clean it.

Great way to save on Diapers? hahahaha the kid is innocent. Technically if you think about it actually makes sense…. seriously logically it makes sense.

BUt in the west Crotchless clothing is what adults go to buy at those XXX stores.

And making a baby sit in their own filth is more hygienic?

The reasons given for being against it aren’t very sound. Im a foreigner in China and I’ve seen many children wearing pants like that – they are healthy and safe. There aren’t many (if any) cases of it drawing in pedofiles…if that type of person has those kind of thoughts they will do it regardless if the child wears crotchless pants or not. And boiling water, and knives will hurt us if we are wearing crotchless pants or not…

Also I think its healthier than wearing diapers like back home which are LOADED with unhealthy chemicals that seep into the childs skin….not to mention the amount of waste. The alternative to that is cloth diapers but back to my original point – crotchless pants are harmless.

I have been to China many times and although was a bit surprised and amused at first, understand the use of these pants for toddlers. People in America need to open up their minds and realise there are many ways to do things in the world. Maybe we could learn from each other!

“For those who run naked for some holidays, what grounds you have to criticise us? Open-seat pants are a part of Chinese culture. What the heck do you know?”

The same culture as “We need new apartment or house to get married, its our culture”

Big Giant BS! Overseas Chinese kept most of the original culture, untainted by Cultural Revolution, do you see them running around wearing this? Not in my 40years going around the world

Americans love being offended and calling the police.
In China, half the time I walk around with my dick hanging out of my pants and Chinese aren’t offended… they are in awe and several girls have actually proposed marriage to me
