Right I have an (embarassing) question about skinny jeans

or any tight around the ladybits ones. I don't have a camels toe (honest) but some of them look wierd up there. Like an upside down triangle. It's like putting a frame around my bits for everyone to laugh at admire.

Am I a freak of nature or is the cut of jeans just not for me?

maybe not for you?
I think you have to be pretty skinny to get away with them

(not implying that you're not btw)

maybe you need lower waisted ones so less material to frame your fanjo area??

Some are ok others look shit. I'm a 12-14 so usually wear longer tops. I think some are too low waisted and I pull them up a bit much [channels Simon Cowell]

Speaking personally it's my thighs that actually stop me wearing skinny jeans - the old sausages squeezed into skins effect - not a great look. But I know what you mean in that I've seen some fairly explicit fanjo effects in them.

Thighs! That's it. They're too fat. I carry fat on the inside of my thighs and it's that what does it.

I knew this and had forgotten.

So far today I have posted about my bowels, my fanjo and my fat thighs. I'm a catch and a half.

I am a 12 and have/will never so much as lift a pair of skinny jeans off the rack.

I'm fairly comfortable with my bod but just know that these will give me cause to question - Does my bum/thighs/fanjo look big in these?

They are just not designed to flatter the figure of your average woman.

Its not us, its them.

I am a 12 and look fine in them. ime, some shops are better than others. Ones from New Look are camel toe central, but strangely enough the most flattering pairs I own (I have a lot ) are from Tesco and Primark. Oasis also good. It's worth going to a few shops and trying on different pairs I think
