Met up with friend in a cafe for a catch up - the last one was before COVID. Her DP came to pick her up after.

He was wearing joggers but he very clearly was not wearing anything underneath. Outlines of everything. I didn't say anything but AIBU to think it's grim to go out in public like that?

If she was sitting and he walked towards her, here eyes could easily be at crotch level depending on the chair

It’s polite to look up, not down.

Why did your eyes even go to his crotch?

There is a man who lives locally who wears tracksuit trousers with no undies and is, well, very very generously endowed by all appearances! So much so that I completely understand the no pants and loose trousers thing. It's a regular subject for discussion amongst the mums when we meet for coffee 😂

Its difficult not to see when things are waving at you ……

Isn't there also a benefit to not wearing underwear and "letting it breath"?

Yeah, under the polyester and elastase of the grey trakkie bums, I'm sure his wangle was gasping the fresh air like Julie Andrews prancing around Untersberg Mountains in the Sound of Music.

There are people who put their toilet brush in the dishwasher.

I have never noticed this. I need to look more carefully.

This is a "thing" to the point it gets written about.
Google Grey Sweatpants Season.

Heyhoherewegoagain · 13/12/2023 14:27

Bet they were light grey joggers too! It’s ALWAYS light grey

Prettypaisleyslippers · 13/12/2023 14:25

It was epic btw

Prettypaisleyslippers · 13/12/2023 14:24

I still get the fanny gallops about seeing Max Cavalera commando in grey joggers outside of Wolverhampton civic hall circa 1996 but anyways, back in the room. Stop looking peoples special places.

TitInATrance · 13/12/2023 14:19

I wouldn’t think the same about a woman with untamed boobs, but I when I see a woman in leggings and camel toe I do wonder why.

My dh doesn't wear pants. I agree it IS grim.

There are people who put their toilet brush in the dishwasher. All sorts of miscellaneous nonsense going on.

It’s grey sweatpants season anyway get used to it 🤣

Sauvblanctime · 13/12/2023 12:52

Why were you looking at his penis???

C1N1C · 13/12/2023 12:39

You might want to avoid marathons then... it's all tight and spandexy there! Meat and two veg and camel-toe galore!

ChateauDuMont · 13/12/2023 12:32

You point at his crotch and start yelling, "FERRET! FERRET! There's a Ferret inside your trousers!" When he explains it's his penis, look very perplexed and say you thought a Ferret must have run up his trouser leg.

Honestly, I find it genuinely quite creepy that you were looking at his groin and trying to see if he had underwear on.

Anyway - as others have said, he probably wears boxers rather than a tighter-fitting pant. But even if he does go commando, it's really no business of yours. It's not like he whipped his willy out and plonked it on the table next to your muffin.

I wasn't 'trying to see if he had underwear on'. It was very obvious.

Just like if anyone above an A cup goes braless it's also pretty obvious in the same way that they're not wearing a bra. You don't need to be Sherlock Holmes.
