There are blokes in the gym wearing them too. When they bend over there is literally nothing left to the imagination and yes....I am pearl clutching.

Let's pearl-clutch together! I think history and aesthetics will be on our side in this.

This is a thread from last year. I’m pleased to see there’s very little of this around anymore, though the nice weather has only just started.

People are entitled to wear what they want, within the laws of decency.

And I'm entitled to judge them! Yes, scrunch-bum leggings are vile and, since they're a very, very conscious choice by the wearer, they certainly carry a message to onlookers...and it's a bit of a nauseating one, in my opinion.

Happy to be thought a prude - in fact, I'm Proud to be a Prude.

They're outside the laws of decency

Nude leggings are hideous too

Can you get ones with eyeballs printed on the buttocks? Surely Wish or somewhere do them? You could have great fun with optical illusions on these...

That's an idea - with a bit of artistry you could make your bum look like a Barn Owl's face. Should scare the fainthearted off!

Omg they look hideous!! The ones with the “built in booty lift” look the WORST to me! I tried a pair on….and NOOOWAYY could I walk around looking like a had a BBL. Not sure how people who wear those don’t see how hideous they look 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

What’s a BBL?

What’s a BBL?

"Brazilian Butt Lift" - where fat is transferred to your bum from elsewhere in your body to make it bigger and perkier.

Good god - this is an actual garment! I thought all the young people were giving themselves deliberate wedgies with ordinary pants. It seemed incomprehensible but I didn't like to ask what was going on.

Ps I'm 41 so should know better, but my husband says they make my arse look great

They look incredible on my 24 year old gym bunny niece. Not so great on older women I see wearing them at my gym.

PotOfViolas · 21/04/2025 12:37

I don't think they look nice on anyone
