Snag tights

I just bought some chub rub shorts from this company because I'm fat. It came with this charming card.
Thanks but I am not interested in having your views foisted upon me everytime I buy something from you! I am paying good money for a product - nothing else.
I do not want your political, religious, or any other views at all. Just send the shorts.
Amazed they didn't ask for my pronouns too. I am getting sick of this constant virtue signalling.

I’m quite happy ‘othering’ men who walk about it woman face and display their knackers online, vacuum- packed into tights.

Because they’re creepy fucking weirdos.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Ooh! Popsy does look good. Thanks

Did you mean to say that you are sure there must be other groups he could have joined, where others share his fetish. That he doesn't have to choose to entangle a group of women who didn't sign up to a fetish site?

Or do you always put the feelings and sexual frissons of men ahead of womens feelings?

There are of course other groups he could join, but battery doesn't have any influence over that, and it also sounds like in general the group is welcoming towards him (hugely praised and feted).

Were you trying to catch me out? What do you suggest battery does?

Isn't the exactly what all the women who are now shopping at places other than Snag are doing?

Catch you out?

I was just pondering the many ways women give over anything they may have to the first man that holds his hand out.

As the online group has, as you suggest OP does.

Yes. Including me. My logic is that I wrote and told them exactly why they were losing my custom and why their actions were so very, very disappointing.

And then I removed my financial support.

I don't like having done it. I don't like the feeling of my hand having been forced. But it is what it is. I can't force Snag to change!

Well you quoted me and asked me directly "do you always put the feelings and sexual frissons of men ahead of women's feelings?" which came across as patronising towards me rather than pondering about what women in general do.

MillicentTrilbyHiggins · 06/01/2023 16:49

I love my snags. For the first time ever I actually have tights that fit.
Lots of the other sites listed on this thread look good too, Popsy in particular have some gorgeous tights. But only standard length so I may as well go to Primark. <Sigh.>

...and it seems like this man is welcome in the OP's group by many other people.

As I said quite clearly, I did include you I that cohort of women.

You did suggest that women could leave an historically female site, discussing female underwear, if they didn't like assuaging the fetish of a lately joined male.

Am I typing in invisible ink or something?

Yes, I did, but that wasn't my first comment. We do not know the origins of the site the OP is on, the one where this man is welcome.

Anyway, what action do you think people should take with regards to the direction Snag has gone?

Just coming on this thread to add this.
I love wearing Snag tights. They’re colourful and comfortable. I’m a member of a group where we show off our outfits and tights. I’m fine with men wearing them, they’re good warm tights.
There is a man who makes long emotional posts about his mental health along with photos of him wearing the tights. But always with shots right into the crotch from underneath, fetish shoes and boots, stockings, upskirt photos etc.
He is hugely praised for his bravery and feted in the comments. I feel like he’s laughing at us. I’m not brave enough to comment, they would attack me. But I’m not comfortable with him bringing his fetish to the group.

Like you, I don’t have an issue with men wearing them, or anything they want. My problem is with them being sexually performative in women’s spaces, including the kind of group you mention and any behaviour they display being defended to the point of abusing anyone who, even gently, challenges it!

Phrenologistsfinger · 06/01/2023 18:54

I get chub rub shorts and tights from big bloomers. www.thebigbloomerscompany.co.uk

Definitely good although a smaller colour range than snag.

will check out Popsy as well

picklemewalnuts · 06/01/2023 18:56

Disappointing that snag's excellent range of nudes isn't widely copied.

OneMorePlant · 08/01/2023 17:24

Phrenologistsfinger · 24/06/2022 02:10

I much prefer Big Bloomers instead of Snag! Same idea but without the creepy men afaik. www.thebigbloomerscompany.co.uk

Looked up the site and loving what i'm seeing!

lapasion · 11/01/2023 11:43

I got sick of Snag and their gross adverts so tried Better Tights on the recommendation of MN. They were just as good as Snag and stayed up and wrinkle free all day. They also do chub rub shorts so I’ll be trying them in future.

BasicItch · 11/01/2023 15:24

It is odd; amongst the things I would want from a pair of tights..knowing the political views of the company isn’t high on my list. And I don’t agree with gender ideology, which is what is being pushed here. So I wouldn’t appreciate this any more than I’d appreciate a card enclosed pushing eg Catholicism

OhBeAFineGuyKissMe · 15/06/2024 07:17

Returning to this thread as I am looking for new tights. I’m going to look up popsy, better tights and big bloomers. But I did go first to snag tights and their website seems to now be 100%women and states it is proudly female owned.

I don’t to support a company who are pushing a TRA agenda but also don’t want to keep avoiding a company who has listened to concerns.

Any recent experience with Snag tights in this regard?

SirChenjins · 15/06/2024 08:51

It’s not 100% female - there are still men on there and they’re still very much 🌈

It does feel like they’ve toned down the fetish stuff on their SM which is great - they’re obviously waking up to the fact that it limits their market substantially.

KittenKong · 15/06/2024 09:03

When people say ‘women’ and ‘female’ - well it’s best to check they aren’t lying.

ChuckBerrysBoots · 15/06/2024 09:05

Not sure it’s their website that’s been the issue as much as their social media and in particular their groups. Do they still have the NSFW section on the website with the delightful patches?

Yes, I think Snag has listened to its customers and, like you, I won’t boycott a company if it changes its policy. They are great tights. Better Tights are also great and so similar, they could be the same company.

PeonySeasons · 15/06/2024 13:18

Well, looking at their Instagram, the most recent video is a man prancing in tights, but a man who knows he's a man, not someone pretending to be a woman.

Then there's the smash the patriarchy posts, but also trans day of visibility, then gender norms being rejected.... So I'd say they are still confused AF, but have definitely dialled down the fetishism - no penises in visible sight for some time.

There seems to be a separate Fb page for their fetish community - probably filled with the same people who were appalled when we asked why Snag supported strangulation of women.

What was it that started a company that makes tights on the road to supporting fetishism, I wonder? I can’t bring myself to buy anything from them given there are other brands out there that are just as good and don’t link themselves to this crap.
