The history of the first leagues
Garters are a fairly new piece of clothing, as their first appearance dates back only to the XNUMXth century., although they have illustrious precedents, such as belts. In the past, before the typical elastic fabric that characterizes these pieces was invented, people who wore garters held them with the help of a kind of clothing ribbons or cords that were tied tightly on the thigh. Later, in the XNUMXth century, the first elastics and garters appeared.

Leagues have a strong associated erotic content that does not go unnoticed. Possibly due to being where they are, hidden and keeping their underwear in place, this garment has acquired some risque connotations. In addition, throughout the XNUMXth century, and thanks to its constant appearance in men's magazines and in pornography, this vision has been consolidated.
Finally, there are traditions that are also responsible for maintaining this connotation. For example, en weddings it is common for the groom to remove the bride's garter with teeth or hands as a symbol that they are going to lie down together. In some places it is even typical for the groom to then throw the garter towards the group of single men invited to the wedding. The bride does the same with the guests and her bouquet. So the man who picks up the garter and the woman who picks up the bouquet have to dance a song together.
