I'd never wear them but I don't mind the normal cycling shorts/ active wear shorts and leggings. Not the scrunch bum ones! However I don't like the trend for wearing cropped or normal tops etc with them when everything's moulded to your bottom half, no one wants to see your camel toe/ hoof etc

A humongous ass is generally seem as attractive nowadays 🤷‍♀️ vs ironing board bums

Why is it women's clothes that are sexualised? Again?

Nowherenew · 25/10/2023 21:51

It’s fair enough if you don’t like them, there are many items of clothes that I don’t like.

But some of these replies are very rude and judgemental about the people wearing them.

They're awful but not as bad as the primark all in ones that have fanny flaps

What?

We used to call anything that went into your crack 'Hungry arse' clothes. These fit that description perfectly.

On a side (thong) note- I used to do karate with a girl who proudly admitted that she only ever wore thongs. When you consider the amount of stretching, kicking etc and add in the heavyweight fabric of a gi, it used to make me wince and wonder just how far up she wanted to floss...

Just looked them up. Omg, the confidence required!

Literally everyone wears them. You’ll struggle to find people not wearing them at the gym. Problem is they only look good if you’ve got a good bum and 90% of people who wear them are not in that catagory

Not in my gym, these monstrosities are definitely in the minority. They are usually worn by those who use the stairmaster.

Genet, they are meant to be like gym wear , but the type that shows of your very well toned bum. Some women like them, I don't.

Maybe all very well at the gym - I’ve only seen them (flesh coloured) at the bus stop.

Just as well there wasn’t any old bugger with a weak heart in the queue.

Don't normally stick up for men, but tbh, I can't think of many that would agree to wear something so ridiculous, naked and uncomfortable looking.

yesyesitsaparkingone · 25/10/2023 21:55

Also, I wouldn’t really be happy with my DS essentially going out in his trunks, so those shorts all the teen girls are wearing are crazy. Like it’s not a sexist thing for me, I just don’t want to see two half-arse-cheeks belong to either sex when I’m running errands!

It does slightly worry me that there’s not much further to go. What exactly is next, surely not just wandering around in pants (please god no).

QueenKnut · 25/10/2023 21:55

They are beyond revolting.

SheerLucks · 25/10/2023 21:56

Meanwhile, guys and boys in comfy weather appropriate clothes.

This is THE saddest thing...

TinChristmas · 25/10/2023 21:56

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>

Genius!

Hopefully in years to come people will think wtf was I wearing!

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

This. It’s like those female baboons that show off their swollen red bums 🤣 Often seen on human version accessorized with swollen red filled lips.

LeHamelRenard · 25/10/2023 21:58

They’re not what I’d wear but I’m in my 40’s.

The young women in my gym look good in them.

All power to those who have a good enough arse to flaunt it. I would have when I was younger.

I saw a woman the other day who had the biggest (fake) lips I had ever seen. The poor girl honestly looked cartoonish. The rest of her was very skinny, arms, legs, torso, and she had a delicate little face. She would have been so much prettier had she left herself alone! I know, I know, her choice, don't judge, but I did think it was a bit grotesque.

I’m surprised no one has yet said that women should be allowed to wear whatever they want and that they are not responsible for how men view them.

I agree though, that the leggings and the shorts are utterly hideous. Especially when worn with a crop top. It really does look as though they’re going to stand on a street corner.

Well, they should and they aren't.

That doesn't stop the leggings from looking ridiculous though.

Raisinganiguana · 25/10/2023 22:02

It looks like an extended puckered anus to me. Is that hot?

Is it all in scrunch or are these women padded up?

Women can actually go out and buy comfy, weather appropriate clothing if they want to but many choose not to. Men are not buy them. Women are. Detested thongs when i was young just don't get them and they are hideously uncomfortable, I'd rather go commando than wear them! Hideous scrunch bum leggings are just the next step. Shudder.

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