穿裤礼指男孩幼年时首次穿裤的仪式。从16世纪中期[1] 至20世纪初,西方的男童在幼年时(2岁左右-8岁左右)[2] 通常穿着长袍连衣裙,直到长大后才穿裤。穿裤礼是男童人生中重要的庆祝仪式。这意味着父亲在抚养孩子方面会更多的参与。[3]

在19世纪,男童在穿裤后,通常会拍照留念,通常是跟他的父亲合影。

Owen-Crocker, editors, Medieval Clothing and Textiles, Volume 3, p. 185. Before roughly this date various styles of long robes were in any case commonly worn by adult males of various sorts, so boys wearing them could probably not be said to form a distinct phenomenon.
