Awful. Remind me of a cat's bum every time I see a pair being worn.

Oh god just catching up on mumsnet (rare night out)....flashback to two weeks ago out with DD2 (18) in Chichester sitting having lunch, commented on a girl wearing such leggings saying something old age like 'park your bike' and she's all 'mum, they're cool leggings' in my head 'WTF'....NOW I understand......sigh....🙄

I think you missed my point, but no worries.

Didn’t miss your point at all.

There has & will always be shite fashion trends.

The part I cannot understand is why wear them in a light colour when you are going to sweat?! sweaty crack & vag is a nope.

They are indecent. I was in Tesco with my elderly father and a woman with a rather ample bum wearing them bent right over in front of my Dad. He said ‘Good God’ . I thought he was going have a stroke, as in a medical episode not literally. I didn’t know where put my face. Arse cracks need to be covered up!!

😂Brilliant.

Not really. If I walked into my gym, or anywhere in public naked I’d be escorted off the premises.

Most people in the gym notice what other people are wearing and most people in the gym want to be noticed. And if you don’t think that nearly every bloke checks out nearly every women then you’re being very naive.

Normal people in the gym do not care what other people are wearing.

Normal people in the gym are more bothered about their workouts.

Normal people in the gym do not care to be noticed. You know why? Because they’re just there for their workout.

It’s only the Pearl clutches who believe women must cover up like the 1950’s who like to judge other women. Much like the OP and the majority of Pearl clutches on this thread.

Yeah men check out women. In the gym, in the pub, in the supermarket, at the petrol station, on the train. Most public places. Do I like being checked out by men in the gym? No. But I ignore it and just concentrate on my workout.

This is why there remains a market for women-only gyms.

I'm a straight woman but it's hard not to sneak a look in body pump!

🤣

bombastix · 25/10/2023 23:25

This thread has really cheered me up. Critics and defenders of said pants alike are very funny

AlecTrevelyan006 · 25/10/2023 23:21

FlissyPaps · 25/10/2023 23:05

This is so funny.

You must live a very sheltered life OP.

Good heavens, leggings and gym bras ….in a gym?! Whatever next? 😵

The normal people in the gym aren’t bothered about what other people are wearing. All they’re bothered about is their workout.

Don’t clutch those pearls too tightly and hurt yourself now.

Pokinganose · 25/10/2023 23:18

I saw someone wearing them today but didn't realise what they were. Just thought she had an enormous arse and that perhaps she shouldn't be wearing them! Obviously wasn't enlightened till now.
Next time I'll think that's those scrunch bum leggings that make your arse look enormous.

bombastix · 25/10/2023 23:17

@therealcookiemonster - you probably had more fun with your cookies. Better to not be hungry than have hungry bum pants

BlowDryRat · 25/10/2023 23:17

I didn't know these were special leggings, I just thought some women at my gym have fabulous bums. I'm a straight woman but it's hard not to sneak a look in body pump!

On that basis, YABU. I'd never wear them in a million years but the women I've sent wearing them IRL look great.

therealcookiemonster · 25/10/2023 23:16

@bombastix I think I'm already wearing a pair. oh wait, no... just have a fat arse due to the cookies

Raisinganiguana · 25/10/2023 22:46

Shit I forgot the balloons for my son’s birthday tomorrow

Blimey, that arse doesn't look human!

bombastix · 25/10/2023 23:16

therealcookiemonster · 25/10/2023 23:15

I think they are great. they look like you already have a wedgy so even if you get one, no one will know?

lol

TheLonelyGoatTurd · 25/10/2023 23:14

Do shops accept returns on these? Do they come with one of those plastic strips like you get in a swimming costume? I don’t think I’d want to buy something that had been pressed in a stranger’s arsecrack.

bombastix · 25/10/2023 23:14

Next stage, inflatable arse pants. Pump each cheek for peachy perfection.

Obviously for young people, their choice, but you can't stop people laughing either.

I’d normally be saying the same, except, come on honestly? In these leggings? It’s worse than going out naked really.
