To be a bit perplexed by lady at the supermarket today

[Bobbybobbins]

So I was at the checkout and my DS was asleep in his pushchair. I had all the shopping in the basket under the chair, was crouching down to load onto the conveyor belt. A lady comes over (walks a fair distance to the checkout I am at) to tell me that my jeans are low at the back and she can see my bottom!

They were a little low - I wear a long top with these jeans as they are too loose but obviously as I was crouching down, a little too much was on view!

It just puzzles me that she would feel so strongly about it that she would walk over to tell me. Would she have said it to a big bloke?

They are marvellous. :o

So.....how bad was it (if you have recreated the pose)?!!

It's why I love teaching reception. Fantastic questions, total honesty and no hiding place.

She would have a field day with me then op! Arse always falling out.

I have seen this with other people and would never say anything.

She was prob jealous

A woman behind me in the checkout once pointed out that the side zip on my dress was fully open. I was VERY grateful.

Ha! Once had a woman point out to me that my top had slipped a bit when I was leaning to depths of trolley to unload groceries in supermarket. I was similarly perplexed so I left a long pause then said 'lucky you for copping a flash for free!' She looked stunned.

I think a diagram might be in order.

I am that woman who will tell you that your zip is undone. (sorry). But I've had more people look at me as if I'm strange is when I've pointed out to people that the bar on the back of their collapsable buggy is up. Even though it's a safety thing. Surely you'd want to know if your buggy wasn't up properly and could therefore fold itself unexpectedly?

I used to have a buggy that used to fold itself if that bar was even a little up, so I just got really really used to checking.

I used to take DS to a toddler gym class when he was about 2.

One day one of the teachers had on a bright red g-string with diamante up the back - it was completely on show when she was crawling around the mats. DS spotted the sparkly bit hanging over her waist band and twanged her pants.

Never work with children or animals.

Meh. I'm sure she was trying to be helpful, but I probably wouldn't have said anything to you, no. I try not to talk to strangers about their arses if I can help it!

I've told someone the belt on their dress was all twisted once. Nothing to do with modesty. Just that her belt looked a bit funny, so thought I'd let her know. She seemed fine with it.

Once, when I was young and still went out (sniff), I was standing chatting to a friend outside an all night shop after a night out. Another friend happened to be driving towards us, saw that my pants were on show and so got her bf to pull over his car. She leapt out of the car and ran towards me shouting "YOUR PANTS!!!"

It was completely bizarre and I've always thought she was very strange since. I don't see her anymore but that has nothing to do with this incident.

It wasn't toooo bad... But definitely some lower back or maybe ahem slight top of cheek on show.

I am sure she was trying to be helpful and I was polite (though slightly puzzled) in my reply. It's good to hear from lots of you that you would do this too, as I wouldn't, but it's always good to hear other people's views.

PS my underwear was definitely not visible!

She probably would not have said anything to a man. Women think we are likely to have 'higher standards' so she thought she was being helpful

To clarify; I was wearing combat trousers (t'was the noughties) and my pants were pretty high up. It was not an arse out situation.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

She was probably trying to help but personally I wouldn't tell anyone they had builder's bum. They probably know anyway and just don't care are otherwise occupied.

why was she looking down at your butt[hmmm]

I don't see what the woman did was so wrong? I will often tell people if their zip is down or jumper on inside out because I would want someone to tell me if I was in their shoes and hadn't noticed.

Especially if it's something that can be easily fixed - boobs are on show because shirt buttons have popped open unnoticed; a jumper on inside out; loo paper on the bottom of a shoe trailing across the room etc - I don't see why a quiet word to the person in question, to make them aware, would be a bad thing?

Keep hands, arms, legs and feet inside the ride at all times.

Always use safety equipment provided and never attempt to wriggle free of or loosen restraints or other safety devices.
Parents should make sure their children can understand and follow safe and appropriate ride behavior.
Never force anyone, especially children, to ride attractions they don’t want to ride.
If you see any unsafe behavior or condition on a ride, report it to a supervisor or manager immediately.

Because it was hanging out and obvious, and women like to judge other women all the time? Or she saw someone in a situation she'd have found embarrassing and thought she'd be kind.
As I said, I'd say nothing. Some people get arsey about helpful comments.

arrggh daughter did it again(switched pages when i was away from pc) i think shes doing it on purpose now

She was trying to be helpful. Maybe you were showing a lot more bum than you were aware of - and maybe you were attracting unsavoury male attention in the form of sniggers, nudges etc. She may not have given you all the gory details because it might have embarrassed you.

I doubt that she would have walked that distance to comment because she felt you were immodest.

Children are such a joy, aren't they Pegasus?

I would appreciate someone telling me, I think she was definately trying to be kind but your post and some replies make me think in future i should just leave the person to show off everything. How can you be sure it wasn't an awful lot that you were revealing unless you could feel wind on your bum?

I recently saw a woman whose shorts were pulled up by her heavier top revealing a lot of her bum cheeks. I wanted to tell her but she wasn't near enough for me to tell without drawing even more attention. Now I am left wondering if she would have thought me odd too.
