that her leggings are see-thru in sunlight and she ought to wear bigger knickers if she wants to do that again?

Do it. YANBU.

I told DP I couldn't see through them once, led him to believe he'd developed Superman type powers, quite funny really, until the 7 story "fall" from the window.

I'm northern, the acceptable way to tell them up here is "'Ere Pet, you're flashing your gash!"

WorraLiberty · 17/04/2012 18:36

Just clap you hands and shout "Oh goody, I needed somewhere to park the bike"

lazymonkeyface · 17/04/2012 19:11

Debeez that's make me laugh so hard, that my FIL (who i don't like and thinks i'm working) just jumped and asked me what I was looking at :)

Debeez · 18/04/2012 22:36

Sorry if I got you in trouble Lazy Blush

My mam once told a lady her "gusset" was showing (tights had ridden down), the lady the hoiked up her skirt and pulled her tights up while thanking my mortified mother. Not sure if she was without shame or making a point at my mother.

Maybe they know but don't care?

Salmotrutta · 18/04/2012 22:50

On a side note can anyone tell me when this trend for wearing tights with short shorts came in?

Did it sneak in a while ago?

Salmotrutta · 18/04/2012 22:51

Gusset is on my list of "hate" words BTW ... Grin

Debeez · 18/04/2012 22:52

I blame Alexa Chung, I blame her for most things mind...

Debeez · 18/04/2012 22:52

How about crevice Salmotrutta ?

shockers · 18/04/2012 22:58

Salmotrutta,I once heard someone say that if you run out of knickers, give the "crusty side of the gusset a quick rub and turn em inside out."
Shock

Salmotrutta · 18/04/2012 22:58

Crevice is OK - 'cos it's a geographical thing too (in my mind).

Gusset/crotch/moist/panties - all wrong. They are actually against my The Law.

Salmotrutta · 18/04/2012 22:59

shockers - that's ... erm ... a shocker. Shock Grin

Salmotrutta · 18/04/2012 23:00

Oh - and eeewww!!

Debeez · 18/04/2012 23:03

Shockers I want to question your social group but I'll settle for a bit of sick in my mouth......UGH!

Lol at your banned words Salmotrutta, I like foisty as a variance of moist one of those banned words. Respects Salmo's Law

shockers · 18/04/2012 23:04

Grin... put me off the word gusset too... especially when coupled with the word 'crusty'.

Salmotrutta · 18/04/2012 23:05

Slacks
Beige
Prepare

Are also subject to My Law.

shockers · 18/04/2012 23:05

I overheard it on a train... hen party I think!

Debeez · 18/04/2012 23:06

Poor stag!

TheSinglePringle · 18/04/2012 23:08

THIS IS WHY LEGGING SHOULD BE WORN WITH LONG TOPS

Salmotrutta · 18/04/2012 23:08

How about - Russet Gusset

This was a phrase my mum once used to describe the undergarments on the washing line of a neighbour Shock

My mum judges people's hung-out washing Shock

Debeez · 18/04/2012 23:09

Woooooooooooooooooooooahhhh Bodyforrrrrrrrrrrrrrrm

HappyJustToBe · 18/04/2012 23:09

I'm torn between it would be your civic duty to inform said lady that her gash is indeed on show and thinking it might be her intention as surely she checked before leaving the house.

Doesn't everyone do the bending over in front of DH and looking in the mirror test?

Salmotrutta · 18/04/2012 23:10

Disclaimer: - my mum is pretty old and off the "judgey" generation ...

Salmotrutta · 18/04/2012 23:10

of the "judgey" generation

MessyTerrier · 18/04/2012 23:11

YABU. Just judge silently. It's part of the Costco experience. Grin
