said method comprising the steps of: Commentary: No Accelerated Examination needed here. Just a very helpful examiner (female, if that matters) with some 112 issues. Thirteen months later, voila. Interesting that it was filed with a non-publication request; I'd think the European or South American market might be strong for this invention. And the first eight claims are apparatus claims, as you might expect. Patent of the week? More like Patent of the Rear. (Commenters, you may now insert your own jokes...)a. providing a leg wear having a
waist line formed along a top-most edge thereof, said leg wear
including a lower torso buttocks
covering garment provided with a crotch and leg portions respectively;

at a location below said waist line of said leg wear while a top-most
end of said faux underwear garment is exposed above said waist line of
said leg wear, said faux underwear garment being selected from a group
including a faux g-string and a faux thong
respectively;
c. providing and engaging a first cord with said top-most
end of said faux underwear garment such that a posterior section of
said first cord remains abutted to said top-most end of said faux
underwear garment, said first cord contiguously
extending adjacent to an entire circumference of said waist line of
said leg wear;
d. adapting said leg wear to partially cover a user
buttock in such a manner that said waist line of said leg wear is
selectively situated below the exposed end of the
user buttock crevice during use thereof; and
e. automatically adapting

when said waist line of said leg wear drops below and rises above the
