AIBU not warning a woman her shorts had ridden up?

Went for a coffee this morning. A “mature” lady was sitting with male friend at opposite table. I didn’t take much notice, but, suddenly, looking up across the cafe I couldn’t help seeing that her very short shorts had ridden up, she evidently wasn’t wearing isn’t pants underneath and all or almost all was revealed. I immediately looked away but she stayed put for the duration of my visit. Should I have warned her? I was too embarrassed to say anything. WWYHD?

On further thoughts, I have an awful feeling that what I saw wasn’t female anatomy and the “lady” opposite was in fact a trans person. The protruding part, cone to think of it, was suspiciously male. The rest of the person was convincingly feminine.

Maybe she just had a big bulging fanny.
I always wear long tops as my own protrudes when I wear leggings. I have slim legs, someone could think that I had a penis.

Absolutely not.

In Fife in the late '70s/ early '80s, the code for a petticoat on show was "It is raining in France". I'm really not sure as to how that expression came to be. Perhaps because of "lingerie" being a loanword?

We used to say "It's snowing down south" here.
