A mind-blowing realization
I learned a while back that in British English "suspenders" are an item of lingerie (aka "garter belt") and not something to hold a man's pants up.
But it has taken me some time to realize that when the lumberjack in the Monty Python song puts on "high heels, suspenders, and a bra" the suspenders are not the only remaining item of male clothing, but part of the feminine ensemble.

(In the video when he sings that bit he is still in fact wearing "suspenders" in the North American sense, making it all more confusing!)
