For me, usually slightly (about one inch, give or take) below the waist. My general rule for myself is that if I can feel a draft on my butt, or my boxers are visible between my pants and shirt, my pants are too low.

Well, slightly above, I guess, but that depends on the definition of "slightly". When I was much younger and had practically non-existent hips, I obsessively wore my pants at a height that just about would put Urkel to shame. Nowadays, I'm more relaxed, but I still don't like the sensation of "low" pants (feels like they're about to fall off, usually).

My pants are at the waist. Lately though they've been falling down 'cause I've lost some weight.

I can't wear them anywhere but my waist. Lower than that and it feels uncomfortable; higher than that and I'd have to go up a couple inches to fit them over my belly.

I've never actually been 100% where the waist is located, actually.

I wear them slightly above my waist, although they tend to want to go below my waist for some reason.

Same here. It seems pretty apparent that it's either where this guy is measuring himself, or where he's actually wearing his pants to:

Where is the option for "below knees"?
