Over the next week, various male Twitter users began posting photographs of themselves wearing grey sweatpants to prominently display a bulge underneath with the hashtag "#GreySweatpantsChallenge."[3] Additionally, other Twitter users began tweeting reactions to the photographs along with the hashtag (shown below, right).
