YANBU.

Skin coloured is are especially yuck.

Biasquia · 25/10/2023 20:36

Absolutely awful. They are absolutely everywhere where I work.

Busephalus · 25/10/2023 20:37

They're horrible

TestingTestingWonTooFree · 25/10/2023 20:37

I find them a bit obscene but weirdly fascinating. I marvel at the women who want to display their arse crack so prominently.

XenoBitch · 25/10/2023 20:37

I don't like the look of them, so I don't wear them.

MrsTerryPratchett · 25/10/2023 20:37

Like fedoras and man buns were. What people think they look like and what they do look like bear no resemblance.

Spendonsend · 25/10/2023 20:38

I think they look nice.

PrintersCourt · 25/10/2023 20:38

So are those bloody tiny shorts that are frankly about the same size as my actual underwear. I have no desire to see a teenage girl’s arse when I’m queuing for a coffee 😳

Should have gone to specsavers

Mothership4two · 25/10/2023 20:39

Ha ha ha! I'd never heard of them, so just Googled. Best laugh of the evening so far! A padded bra for your bum. Gives a whole new twist on the catchphrase "does my bum look big in this?" yes it does

They always remind me of a middle aged relative saying ‘the ones that go into the great unknown..’ about g strings in the 90s

LavaGuava · 25/10/2023 20:41

One of the mums at my DCs school wears them. I didn’t know what they were called until I saw this. They do look a bit obscene on the school run!

RandomNutter · 25/10/2023 20:41

People can wear what they want, yada yada. It's the parents of the young girls/teens wearing them that I judge.

Spidersfreakmeout · 25/10/2023 20:53

Was blissfully unaware of these, so googled it, absolutely horrendous (and hilarious)!

mynameiscalypso · 25/10/2023 20:54

They look v uncomfortable

SirenSays · 25/10/2023 20:56

Not something I could get worked up about, the gymshark ones look OK imo.

NoraLuka · 25/10/2023 20:57

The leggings are bad but the shorts are worse!

I told DD I was thinking of getting some, because she wouldn’t be seen dead wearing the same thing as her mum <tactical parenting>

You see I can’t imagine women buying them. Who wants to dress like they are off to stand on a street corner. they are the red lingerie of the fashion world - bought by men for their girlfriends to wear.

meganorks · 25/10/2023 20:59

Also, entirely unsuitable for exercise. The number of sweaty arse-cracks I saw at the gym was not fun. Surely no woman wants to think that she has a visibly sweaty arse while exercising?! And yet, surely they know?

Jellycats4life · 25/10/2023 21:01

There’s a school mum who wears them a lot, and the first time I saw them I swear I blushed. They were obscene looking!

MrsMitford3 · 25/10/2023 21:01

Omg. I also had to google.

laughably hideous. why/who wears them?

I see Khloe Kardashian is a spokesperson so I think I have just figured out the answer to my own question...

biscuitnut · 25/10/2023 21:03

They are indecent. I was in Tesco with my elderly father and a woman with a rather ample bum wearing them bent right over in front of my Dad. He said ‘Good God’ . I thought he was going have a stroke, as in a medical episode not literally. I didn’t know where put my face. Arse cracks need to be covered up!!

JellyMops · 25/10/2023 21:04

Did an exercise class behind someone in a pair of those. She didn't half get a noticeably sweaty crack!

BankruptedByBirds · 25/10/2023 21:04

I saw a woman wearing a flesh covered pair today - she was wearing granny pants underneath, which rather defeated the object. She was also pushing a toddler who had bare feet (it was cold here today) so I'm afraid I did rather pull a face like a disapproving Lady Button.
