They look like hairy arses.

@ChristmasCrumpet i laughed so hard at “pucker, pucker, pucker”.

I did that look!
Striped leotard over black lycra short shorts, white slouch socks rather than legwarmers, even white wristbands and a very high ponytail. Sometimes it was a plain leotard over striped shorts. I trained to teach Exercise to Music, and very much wanted to be like the Course Leader, who dressed in that style.
I thought I was the Bees Knees!

(There was some cotton in the fabric, so much less chance of sweating and chafing - which I think the high lycra content these days can cause rather than prevent.)

I think every generation has their fashion that they look back on and think - really!

My leotard was purple over black shorts. 🤣.

I just wish my arse was in as good a shape now as it was then.

Ha, yes I remember that look!

Cat’s bum?

Horse’s arse springs to my mind.

That's a different take on a wax - is that the Hickstead special? Bare underneath but a large amount of tail on the front?😂

I remember when it was fashion for people to wear their g-string straps up higher than their trousers/skirts.

I remember celebs like Christina Aguilera doing it and thinking they were so cool 🤣

Whale tails.

I am slim, in good shape and have a good bum and there's no way on earth I would wear these I think they're awful and I wouldn't want to draw that much attention to myself when out in public! My husband likes them though, he's asked me to get some but I can't face wearing them even in the house. I live in regular thick leggings though

bronkie · 26/10/2023 00:45

Why not add a sexy bow at the back too to just give that hint of unwrap me and we could have some anal?

My anus doesn’t need a hug

SammyScrounge · 26/10/2023 00:58

I had to Google to find out what they were. Turns out I have been noticing the ghastly things for the last couple of weeks.
Then Google told me they come in Plus sizes. How will I cleanse my mind of the image of a plus backside squeezed into a pair of these!

What is a scrunchy bum legging?

AllSewnUp · 26/10/2023 01:14

I just Googled. It looks like a cats bum hole 😂. I will not be purchasing.

bronkie · 26/10/2023 01:16

Cats' bum holes are better looking 😂

Mothership4two · 26/10/2023 01:21

I think the poster who said it reminded them of the Kenny Everett Rod Stewart sketch was spot on!

They are horrible.

My daughters dad and his wife sent my daughter home wearing them. My daughter is 10. I had a conversation with her about why they were inappropriate, why they should never have been bought and asked her to never wear them again, which she agreed. Them, on the other hand, clearly disturbed.

You're missing my point - that, whether you would personally wear a bikini or not, most people don't think anything of seeing them worn inn public places - beach, swimming pool, even sunbathing in a park, for example.

What is it about the supermarket, as opposed to any of the above public places, that induces your disgust?

Either we say women (and men) should cover up in all places that are used by the general public, or we don't. There is no logic to saying beach = fine, Sainsburys = unacceptable.

It’s not about the amount of flesh covered or not - these leggings do cover flesh - it’s the exaggerated wrinkled anus effect .

Mumtobabyhavoc · 26/10/2023 02:45

No. But, only because I don't have a particularly enviable backside. 😥

Tsukiko · 26/10/2023 02:51

I googled this and the images are mostly in gyms, it makes the arse look like a giant ball sack and the torso like a penis shaft. I could see some deep, psychological shit here that I am too tired to take on at the moment Grin

Peggoty · 26/10/2023 03:26

Nowherenew · 25/10/2023 22:05

Why because I don’t like women being body shamed?

But this isn't body shaming. It's commenting on very ugly clothes.

OneMorePlant · 26/10/2023 03:47

I had to google this and first thought it was some meme joke.

It looks like their arse became a black hole that will suck up our solar system starting with their leggings.

Why? Why would you wear these? Or buy these? Or make these? Why?

HazardLights · 26/10/2023 03:47

I think when a new fashion comes along, that is highly sexualized, it’s not surprising that women want to comment on it.

MeinKraft · 26/10/2023 03:56

Ohh. There's a woman on my Facebook page who must wear these. She posts pictures of herself at the gym and hiking up mountains but from behind so you can see her bum cheeks in her leggings. I didn't know they existed and wondered how she got that affect!

lokimoki · 26/10/2023 04:22

Oh they are horrible I see them around and think of how much they must smell

IWillBeWaxingAnOwl · 26/10/2023 04:36

My mil asked me the other day why so many women wear thongs to workout when they only ever cause your leggings to get stuck up your bum. I had to explain to her that it's not the undies to blame and the stuck up the bum look is deliberate!

Dentistlakes · 26/10/2023 04:37

Not for me, but some women look good in them. They’ve designed to accentuate the current big arse trend. Wouldn’t have worked in my day, we were all terrified of having a big bum back then.
