I always think of leggings as functional rather than sexy garments.

I read this, those poor poor Catholic boys, led into sin by women wearing leggings! Pile o' shite, perhaps she should have raised them to have some respect and not be led by their dicks?

[Jackshouse]

Not sure she knows her bible well.

Matthew 18:9 And if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell.

I like leggings as I don't have to try and suck in and squeeze into them. Job done!

[ClaraTheClown]

Haaaaa!

I love the protesters wearing leggings when they wouldn’t normally - haha!

“What I wear is not an invitation to sexualise my body”

A fucking men.

[Pk37]

What the actual fuck ...?
What happens if they go near a gym , do they literally explode into a pile of semen ?
This woman is an idiot

[ForalltheSaints]

I think that they just look trashy.

[kalinkafoxtrot45]

Do leggings really lead you into sin? I must try that.

[ClaraTheClown]

foxtrot.

Sadly, it hasn’t worked for me so far... .

[MitziK]

I can't imagine that her sons were complaining about it.

'Mom! Mom! I'm surrounded by women wearing comfortable clothing! It's too much! I'm just going to have to sexually assault them! Please, do something really publicly embarrassing to save my Immortal Soul!'

[Jebuschristchocolatebar]

I’m on a really shit Irish parenting site where everyone is a holy joe. There was a debate about this before and loads of women said they wouldn’t let their daughters wear leggings becuase they are too sexy.

[ClaraTheClown]

'Mom! Mom! I'm surrounded by women wearing comfortable clothing! It's too much! I'm just going to have to sexually assault them! Please, do something really publicly embarrassing to save my Immortal Soul!'

Baaahahahaha! Love it.

I personally dont like leggings and think they are like tights and should be worn with something covering your bum. However....i dont give a toss what others wear. I dont like them so i dont wear them. My friends like them and wear them couldnt care less

[UtterlyUnimaginativeUsername]

@Jebuschristchocolatebar Please send me a link to this holy joe site, I'm in Ireland and would love a gander

[Jebuschristchocolatebar]

Utterlyunimaginative its rollercoaster. I’ve never encountered a bigger bunch of backward holy joes in my life. I actually logged out of it after the referendum last year because of the vitriol spouted by some of the holier members!!

[thedisorganisedmum]

when you see the state of many girls and women wearing leggings instead of trousers, I'd have thought they were the perfect garment to turn off anyone.

The ones with the body who can pull them off would look just as good in anything else anyway.

[CheshireChat]

I remember reading an online discussion about not showing off shoulders and collarbones and a couple of teenage boys we're saying 'we have them as well, we don't care, don't blame this on us'

[RevealTheLegend]

Im getting some good sidebar ads for gym leggings

[CheshireChat]

RevealTheLegend fight it, don't give into the urge! They want you to sin!

[Zofloramummy]

I work in a Catholic school and OMG I wear leggings!! With long tops/dresses etc. I’m surprised I haven’t been dragged into the head teachers office and scolded for inciting lust

[RevealTheLegend]

'made it "difficult for young guys to ignore" women's bodies'

Lovely bit of victim blaming there. Of course women must dress from head to toe in a fucking duvet cover with holes cut out for eyes so the young men aren't forced to stare at their sinful bodies

When are we going to get past this sexist shite.

[Gingerkittykat]

I've noticed in a lot of Conservative Christian USA groups the wmen see it as their responsibility to dress modestly in order to not tempt the men.

Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be the same the other way around. Women and girls wear super modest swimwear that covers all cleavage, some leg and shoulders but men are fine in speedos. Why is it ok for the men to flaunt themselves in front of the ladies? I would love to point out that gay men may be excited by their flesh on display.

[anniehm]

I wear leggings for running, I seriously doubt they turn anybody on! That said normal leggings are really thin and show underwear through so I only wear with dresses (instead of tights).

[SparklyLeprechaun]

Omg I feel for her poor boys, they must be so embarrassed... Can you imagine how much their friends will tease them because of their bonkers mum?

MN is now showing me an ad for leggings
