Beware of leggings!!!




There is a fad trying to come among our Holiness people. To allow girls to wear what they call leggings.
Leggings, it is nothing more than a step to wearing...pants!




OMG!!! Sin! Sin!

I have a pair that I wear under my jeans when it's extra, extra, super cold. I couldn't wear the men's if I wanted to. I'm short, and I'm sure those things would be at least 6-8 inches too long!

One advantage of leggings is that they come in a wider variety of colors and patterns than either women's or men's long john's do. I don't own any myself at the moment, because I live in those sinful, unholy things called pants most of the time.

Thu Sep 26, 2024, 02:42 PM
Sep 2024

Know a woman who at over 80 yo had lost 30 # in 3 months due to illness. Her (L) foot had 1+ swelling all the time and both feet were almost black looking. On her visit to her PCP, she wore ankle length leggings - showed her (L) foot to PCP. That day, she had over 3+ swelling, causing great concern. When back home, she removed the leggings, laid down and propped up her leg. Swelling went down immediately. The leggings had cut the flow of her return circulation. A change in her heart medication and her legs now have a normal color and only occasional (L) foot swelling. This was 3 years ago; she has never worn leggings again.
On another note, I gave red long johns to a couple of male friends as a joke Christmas gift. They both work out in the cold of foothill mountains during winter. They both actually liked them, say they wear them and I have one's picture, in a modelling pose, hanging on my 'fridge.

They don't care about women dying in preventable hospital situations, 93% of white women in Texas are dying since the ban took effect. They don't care about children either, the GQP didn't extend the child tax credit to avoid poverty of children. 1 in 3 women in the South with abortion bans with the exception of Virginia are dying from preventable health issues. These are people like JD Vance, and that Moreno guy who's saying women over 50 why are worried about the issue of abortion, mocking women Moreno, you bastard.


And the worst is the felon saying he's the protector of women???? What a sick fuck.

They don't think anymore of their men than they do of their women. Everyone to them is trash... period. Except for them, of course.

I happened to have bought my first pair of leggings (stretch) a couple of weeks ago and they were beige colored. I wanted them to be able to wear some of my comfy summer pants into fall. I was going to wear them under my summer pants but, no one at Amazon told me that it was an unholy no-no. The ones I bought are really soft and comfy. Is it a sin to feel soft and comfortable? I don't think I like their god very much.

Year around everyone wears shorts, halters, tank tops, flip flops. This includes students and teachers at the local schools. Sweaters and jackets are allowed in grocery stores where it is always 22 degrees Fahrenheit and often snowing.

Leggings? Oh sure. That’s what, when diving, you encircle your fingers around before the lobster laughs at you and moves on.

42. Women wearing dresses make it easier for the preachers to rape them

Them leggings will no doubt be a deterrent to these rapists preachers.

Which btw another DFW preacher fired for inappropriate behavior with children.

Yep, some of the women in my family did not wear pants. Jewelry was also a no-no. Dancing, listening to music, wearing certain hairstyles were also off limits.

Things have changed.

I always thought pants were much more modest.

Pants cover up a lot more and are more modest IMO. When I was in grade school girls were forbidden to wear pants. Imagine going out on the playground in a dress, climbing the monkey bars in a dress. Gym class in a dress. It’s about the most insane thing I can think of. Yet that’s how it was back then.

These religious pervs just want to see a girl’s bare legs.

Same here. Legs froze in the winter. Skirts just make for "easy access," IMO.

I also remember when it was like 10 degrees outside and we walked to school, girls *were* allowed to wear pants … under our dress! Upon arrival at school we had to take the pants off! Just mind numbingly insane!

We did have gym suits for gym class, but don't even get me started on how much those sucked.

The year after I graduated, my sister started high school, and lo and behold, that was the year the school decided to start letting girls wear pants. I was pissed!

The pastor/principal said, when asked why, "I think a girl is more modest wearing pants than when she's on the playground running around with her skirt flying up." Made sense to me! And good thinking on his part.

Just because you don't like looking at them does not give you the right to tell someone else they can't dress the way they want.

They all need to learn to read and spend some time reading their Bahbuls moar, and less time gaping at what the "other sex" might be wearing, lest they be tempted!

Once tempted, they can't be held responsible.

many decades ago, our denomination made us girls wear skirts on hayrides.

If that preacher enacts this decree, he's going to lose allot of women from his congregation.

Why on earth would ANYONE want to return to the past? My internal liberation barometer reads

this old fart as an old-fashioned dude who hasn't adjusted to the real world.

Thinks women/girls are too damn uppity cause they won't wait on him hand and foot anymore.

Single, because the ladies can see through him a mile away.

just sayin...

Not sure when this clip was made, I don't think it's new. However their collective thoughts are as old as the hills, women should dress and comport themselves as 'ladies' at all times.

It was around that time that there was a raging debate in my school whether girls should be allowed to wear pants.
Nowadays, the issue has been settled. For *most* people.

I wear lycra leggings as my top layer. Handy if you need to have an unexpected swim. And don't get me started on the advantages of a singlet or crop top vs underwired bra.

They’re turned on by leggings (obviously), but, they feel that it’s a sin to be turned on by leggings. So, they completely overcompensate by saying insane stuff like that they should be banned.

They sound like the Taliban. “Don’t tempt me sexually!”

But I think at my age I look ridiculous. And when I see women who shouldn’t be wearing them because they don’t look good in them makes me not to wear them anymore. But I do wear them in the privacy of my home.

But if a woman has a nice figure she should wear them and tell those christofascists to STFU!
