Wearing PJs in Tesco's should be banned because its offensive and making people feel uncomfortable, Ridiculous. Not sure about you but I generally don't find anything threatening or to be worried about by people in PJs? I cant see that its indecent either; I doubt people are parading down the isles in skimpy Lingerie this time of year. Even if they were there is nothing wrong with the human body. This isn't Calvinist Geneva or Taliban controlled Kandahar. Some people are offended by or feel uneasy around Goths, Clowns, Women in niqab or burka, Transsexuals, people in football shirts etc. It doesn't mean that their personal hang ups should restrict other peoples freedom of dress. People are so easily offended these days.

Anyone else offended by people in PJs in Tesco?

Gunner did you really tell someone off for not wearing something you approve of? You know that's not ok? You're not the boss of everyone else (unless you're actually the Queen).

Anyone who "hit the roof" because of what I was wearing would find I wouldn't be meeting them again!

You do realise that people on call may be asleep,in their clothes and not stop to change as they rush from the on call room?
Or are they ok because they are educated?

Or might be half way through their nights sleep - having been on nights whilst you were nicely tucked up in bed?

All would have been fine with me walking in in trackie bottoms and a t shirt. Not so in PJ's and I wouldn't blame them.

Are you comparing the people who go to Tesco in their PJs to on-call doctors who work 24 hour shifts and get to sleep only when there's an ebb in patients?

I don't know what Pixie's grandmother 'hitting the roof' actually looks like, but I would definitely have some stern words for my children (or grandchildren?) if I were to meet them for coffee and they turned up in PJs.

I think that's what I meant Museum as opposed to her losing her shit and trashing Waitrose it would be a case of very stern words with me and asking if was quite okay because I'd be surrounded by people who actually found time to get dressed. It would be same stern words from my mum and dad.

I suppose I said hit the roof as people like my Dad and Gran are absolute kittens and having stern words with me is their version of hitting the roof.

That's my point museum you have absolutely no right to have "stern words" about what anyone else is wearing! No right whatsoever. It's none of your business. A grown up relationship doesn't include the right to determine what someone else wears!

I can have stern words with my children as I see fit, hive.

I often meet my Gran in Waitrose for a catch up cuppa. If I walked in in my PJ's and dressing gown she'd hit the roof. My Mum and Dad would have also hit the roof if I had similarly met them in Asda/Tesco etc dressed the same.

Imagine you arrive early to meet someone in a restaurant / coffee shop, and they walk in in their pyjamas. Everybody else is staring, unless there happen to be any of the handful of mumsnetters who think it's quite normal there. Then they come and join you at your table.

And bluntly, people who are teaching their children that this sort of thing is OK and only 'snobs' would judge are doing them no favours at all. The kids who are raised with an expectation of being presentable and an understanding that the world operates in a certain way are going be at a huge advantage in the workplace.

Garment construction of pjs and long sleeved t shirt and leggings / jogging bottoms are almost identical. They also can use the same material. And similar dyes and colours...I can assure you that the material used for pjs may also be used for day clothes...

Yet we can all spot the pyjama wearers at Tesco. I don't understand this point, or any of the points you've made here.

We've had pyjamas in supermarkets this week, as well as entitled school-run parking. Last month we had shoes on or off in the house. It must be nearly time for my favourite topic - should I pay to sit next to my children on our Ryan Air flight to Benidorm?

Not when they are adult museum . It's a different relationship. Or it should be!

Part of it is that the distinction between "lounge-wear" which you wear solely when at home and sleep-wear has become very muddied. I know some people who wear what looks like tracks-suit bottoms to bed. And the other part of it is that there are others in our midst who don't give a flying fuck about what people think of them, so they do exactly as they please. I'd rather drink my own wee-wee than have strangers in the street see me out in my PJs and know that I'm a grubby, chavvy skank.

I once saw quite recently what appeared to be a mother and son out at my local shopping-centre in their PJs and matching dressing-gowns and I put it down to some kind of mental illness. I had no idea that it had become a "thing". A "thing" for chavvy skanks who don't care that others can see they haven't bathed and changed before leaving their homes. Blech!

I think it's inconsiderate of other shoppers to go to the supermarket in pyjamas. It's so unhygienic: what substances are likely to be wafting over the food items on display? Dried sweat, the bodily fluids of the pyjama wearer and their lover(s), threadworm eggs if they are infected, since the eggs are laid at night and shed from unwashed bodies and nightwear. Gross

From way up thread, but this.

And yes - fellow Health Care Professionals. You know only too well you shouldn't.

But seemingly only chavs get judged.

My point is you shouldn't look down on people. You have no idea what point in their lives they are.
It's not about getting dressed for the workplace - it's about wearing what you want in your free time.
I doubt you'd realise that the "nice top" I wore yesterday is a pj top!

The woman I saw getting out of a taxi was wearing a short flimsy nightie! And what looked like no bra. I think she'd literally just crawled out of bed.

Navy the only times I've ever known someone do that is my Mum when she had gallstones and jaundice. She'd been given a late night out of hours appointment and literally jumped in in her nightie and coat. She was delirious with infection. The bloke had a go at her for her not bothering to get dressed and it's unhygienic etc. My Mum didn't come out of hospital for three months as she ended up in Intensive care shortly after and I know a friend of hers complained about the drivers attitude.

IMO though, there's a huge difference between emergencies like that and the scenario where the Tesco ladies were wearing them almost as if they are fashion.

You don't get pyjama wearers in Booths .

"My point is you shouldn't look down on people."

What rot! I judge, and judge harshly. Because I can. Some people are just asking to be looked down upon. The sad thing is that they don't give a stuff what anyone thinks of them. Imagine having so little pride or self-respect

I got in trouble last time I went to Waitrose in my nightwear. Trouble is, I sleep naked.......
