dafyomi: There are Halachic concepts here. D’varim Shel Kedushah are different than D’varim Shel Mitzvah. Kedushah is something that you have to have additional respect for. Mitzvah you don’t have to have respect for, you just aren’t allowed to outright disrespect them. Wearing clothes in a normal manner isn’t disrespect. If your Tzitzis hit the ground when you sit or walk or whatever, that’s fine. It’s not disrespect unless you’re walking through mud or something. You might not personally like the idea of Tzitzis touching the ground, but it’s M’vuar in the Gemara that it’s not disrespectful and that it’s Muttar.
