The whole dressing gown in the supermarket thing

[ThinThighsPlease]

It's bad enough to see people going to their corner shop in a dressing gown at 9pm. But it's a busy Sunday afternoon and I shit you not there's a woman strolling around our massive local supermarket (in fact shopping park) ... in a onesie.

What the fuck is wrong with people?!

I don't think they should be allowed in shops either. Grubby articles.

I try not to judge because we don't know what someone might be going through to warrant them doing it.

I do hate it though, and the trend for it called for many places to advertise that they won't let you shop in that state of dress.

I only saw students do it, or dirty-looking people who had the smell and appearance of those who regularly sleep in the same clothes they wear out anyway.

When I was poorly, I was pulling large trousers over my pj bottoms and chucking a hoodie on my top before the morning school run. It won't have made me smell any better but mine went to breakfast club so I didn't have to stand near anyone else anyway. I would always shower and change before the afternoon run.

There's no way I wanted people seeing me in my pjs because Im embarrassed about my illness and how much rest and bed time I need, for someone who to the eye seems to have all her limbs and such.

But it also means I try and think that someone who is wearing pjs in public has a good reason.

Fairly common in student area of Leeds, as is watching the guys and girls in last nights finery, barefoot, shoes in hand at 10am on a Saturday morning, but a grown ass woman in a normal town supermarket, absolutely not ok.

I had to wear pyjama bottoms for a few weeks after having my kidney taken out, I couldn't wear anything else that didn't hurt my scars like hell. I was absolutely mortified on the occasion I had to wear them to the shops, I already looked shit enough!!

I've yet to see anyone complaining about the regular occurrence of men wearing their filthy work gear in shops
That is often disgusting & unhygienic, a dressing-gown however, is no different to any other item of clothing. It might not be a choice most people would make but, as already said, it actually harms no-one.
As for those using misogynist insults, your ignorance is pitiable.

Reminds me of Villanelle strolling along Paris is an outlandish onesie, but she's a woman playing a fictional psychopathic assassin in a tv show.

I wouldn't do it myself but honestly who gives a shit what other people are wearing?

I'm sure some people who do it are lazy or irritating attention seeker types but there's also the chance it's someone suffering from depression or other MH issues / emergency etc.

All this "it hurts my eyes" shit is just being precious and unkind.

Parent A arrives to do school pick up wearing pyjamas and Wellington boots. Parent B asks Parent A, “Why on earth are you dressed like that?”

Parent A replies, “‘Cos it's gonna rain, innit?”

More than once have I seen a particular man in our tesco express in his girlfriend's onesie and ugg boots (I know they're hers because I've seen her wear them when they're both together).

It's not a good look at any time of day.

it's a way of sending a message that you consider public spaces to be your personal private space and you can act as you please without observing social norms...a form of dominance behaviour 'I dont have to be polite because other people dont matter' etc

Why is it disgusting and unhygienic?

Why do you care so much confused it's not hurting anyone.

So where do we draw the line? An American friend of mine recently shared a photo taken in a supermarket queue. One woman was wearing a skimpy bikini. Would that be ok?

Unless there's a mental health issue, it suggests lack of self respect or total exhibitionism (and I don't care if people think I'm pearl clutching).

I'm sure some people who do it are lazy or irritating attention seeker types but there's also the chance it's someone suffering from depression or other MH issues / emergency etc.

There is no emergency in attending a super market, I would forgive a parent taking their child to A&E but not strolling to Tescos.

hope the outfit was complete with massive rollers in and thick painted brows pretty common in our asda

There is no emergency in attending a super market, I would forgive a parent taking their child to A&E but not strolling to Tescos.

There being no nappies or formula in the house is the sort of "emergency" I mean.

Or indeed, a relative had a small fire recently that meant their house was unsafe to sleep in overnight and they were in the street in their PJs. They were able to hop in the car and drive to mine but other people in that situation might have needed to stop off for supplies.

Lots of people are using pj bottoms and bathrobe as a loungewear nowadays. Much comfier than joggers.
My PJ bottoms certainly also look better than number of joggers which seem to be acceptable
It's not the same pj people sleep in

It doesn't physically hurt anyone's eyes.
If the items are clean I don't see why clothing choices bother other people.

Yep, stick on some jogging bottoms, flip flops and a t-shirt, takes less than a minute.

It was a trend a few years ago, part of the marketing of sleep wear, I assume.

It's quite sad if you think about it, people who have so little self-respect and are happy to be complete slobs in public.

Even taking your kids in your pjs is just pathetic.

I do love the fact that a poster has managed to turn it into a misogynist issue
I have seen male wearing onesie in public, I guarantee that I find them as chavy and revolting as their female counterparts.

What the fuck is wrong with people?!

They are dirty chav's, that's what.

This is disgraceful behaviour imo. Assuming no special needs, of course.

Cardi B recently did this on Rodeo drive in a load of designer shops if that's not the ultimate in attention seeking I just don't know what is.

I'm absolutely disinterested in the opinion of someone who refers to chavs.

I think in balance the pyjama wearers might be more pleasant people. And if the clothing is clean the people aren't dirty either.

misogynist
I can't think of another word to describe that behaviour. It is perfectly appropriate in this case.

I know it doesn't affect my life. I really don't know why it bothers me so much to be honest. It just does!

Some people are chav's. That's a fact. Why get het up about it.
