OMG! So you mean to tell me that someone may see the outline of my butt? IDK... I am thinking that if someone’s never seen the outline of a butt.. they aren’t going to know what it is, and if they have... it’s not gonna be a big deal. I have a feeling that if men weren’t able to
See the outlines of women’s butts.... they’d stop opening doors for us and letting us go first!
Wearing it outside of the gym doesn't automatically make it crawl up your bum and produce insta camel toe.
If you see someone at the store in them, you have no idea if they came from the gym, or are just running errands.
I know what I see, in spite of your efforts trying to convince me I'm blind. I know the difference between athletic wear and leggings. And what's appropriate and not appropriate.
Well obviously they should change into their cashmere and pearls like real ladies after sweating at the gym and before running into Publix for milk.
So much pearl-clutching over what women choose to wear. I wonder why there are no threads on men who wear wifebeaters or jeans that allow the waistbands of their tidy whities to stick out or ugly mullets. Or even better, the wifebeater and mullet with camouflage pants. Those make me roll my eyes, but I wouldn't whine about it in a letter to the town sheriff or whoever's job it is to monitor and advise the men on proper fashion.
There is a difference between athletic wear and leggings.
The equivalent would not be a mullet. It would be a bunch of men in a grocery store wearing speedos where you can see the outline of their junk. And then they'd be at work. At at the airport. And it's a pathetic, inappropriate show of lack of self respect, the same as women who choose tight leggings.
And there have been threads about male teens whose underwear shows because their jeans are too low. If you like, go start another thread on that subject.
I don't think you do. I think that you think leggings in this topic means nylons or panty hose. Big difference between that & leggings or yoga pants or workout wear.
Wrong, wrong, wrong. I know what leggings are. I can't imagine anyone mistaking leggings for workout gear or yoga pants. Ever. Moving on.

Really? Because you know that leggings, or I guess if you want to call them spandex pants, have been worn as workout gear for a long time. They are everywhere, from the gym to simply walking around outside or going to the grocery store.

This. I was wearing them for dance and baton twirling classes 25-30 years ago, and I still wear them now for bicycling and gym workouts.
Mine are definitely not see - through. They are made of thick spandex or a fabric blend. They are no way confused with tights or stockings.
I would like to point out that men are wearing very tight pants now, too. Even "slacks" and suit pants are much tighter than used to be the style. Shirts are also much tighter now. In addition, pregnant ladies now wear cloths that show the whole contour of their bellies. It used to be that your dress or top needed to fall straight down from the widest place, and that showing the bottom of the bump was in poor taste. But the styles now are much more toward showing everything, in both men and women. I think it is a general tendency toward showing more of the body, for both men and women.
No, leggings and spandex workout pants not the same. My leggings are 95% Cotton and only 5% Spandex. Very similar to most women's jeans today.
I think I first started wearing them back in the 80's, and still do for practicality and comfort. When I was still working, I wore them because I worked with disabled adults and children. Had to push wheelchairs, lifting them out of and into, bending over cots to change diapers. I am a size 0. What butt? My "low rise" jeans in the rear part were constantly falling down on me. Nothing there to hold them up. Leggings come to the waist with elastic band. Did not fall down with physical activity. I have always worn leggings with a long shirt or tunic.
