Leggings ARE pants, bitch! Don’t tell me to wear a long top over them either. I wear mine with a short top to show off my lovely lumps. Don’t be jelly. —Fuel for your drool

Leggings are NOT pants. They are glorified tights without the feet. But go ahead treat everyone to the sight of your “lovely lumps” ( what the hell are lumps? tumours?) whether they WANT to see your lumpy camel toe or NOT. TMI lady.
“what the hell are lumps? tumours?” LMAO
Ho!st, not sure if you are LMAO with me or LMAO at me. (I’ll admit I’m not up on all the latest lingo, maybe non-tumour lumps are a thing.)
I think OB was talking about her ‘lovely lady lumps’ a la Black Eyed Peas. But I prefer the tumours.
Oh right, that silly song. I forgot about that little bit of ridiculousness. I think I prefer the tumours too.
One time my doctor asked me if I wanted to attend a “black eye peas” concert with him. While I squirmed in my seat trying to come up with a reason not to go, my doc says “Just Kidding! You just have a bunch of tumors.” I can’t express how great i felt, upon hearing that I didn’t have to go that concert.
Please make sure your “pants” are thick enough so that we don’t see your bag of chips and your all that. Not everyone enjoys to be visually assaulted by someone else’s body parts.
OB, you’re naff. Leggings are akin to knitted tights or indeed panty hose as a garment these days. Yes, they’re thick enough that you _could_, theoretically, wear them as a bottom without any additional coverage, but most sensible women and girls _would_ not. For one thing, they’re not the 80s style leggings which had a little give to them, had pockets and the occasional pleats, and thus could be worn as trousers (I have had my share of them back then.) For another, the only women who can wear them without a dress, skirt, shorts or long tunic-style top and look good are those who are thin or fit enough not to have anything bulging out from under them (which rules out about 99.9% of the women in this city.) Don’t get me wrong – I love my leggings and would wear them every day if I could. However, but I only have one dress and one skort at the moment, and I am not thin or fit enough to not have anything bulging out from under them, so my jeans will have to do for most outings still.
It’s legal, wear what you want. F all the prudes.
