Of course you're not stupid!!!
Slacks is an American term for dress pants, or as you'd say "trousers". Usually like something you'd wear to an interview. As in, not jeans.

Men wear pants and trousers, women wear slacks -- kind of an old fashioned term.

Originally they were mens trousers. The name slacks was first used in the UK and not America as they would have you believe. I remember my Grandfather using the expression over fourty years ago.
