Transparent yoga pants - yuck!

[lovewdwfun]

At the parks now...ladies, before you leave the house, please have someone take a look at your black yoga pants in the sunlight! I have seen way too many women walking around with completely transparent yoga pants. I have never considered myself prudish, but I did not enjoy having to stand behind someone in line with a perfect view of their cellulite and pink cheetah print thong. Some other women seem to think the solution is to not wear panties at all. It is not. This is a family park. I actually mentioned it to a couple cast members, hoping they would ask the women to tie something around their waists. Nope! They just looked and burst out laughing. Am I behind the times? Not sure how transparent pants don't somehow violate the dress code.

That's why they don't allow leggings in our middle school.

Not sure how this is a parks touring strategy though......

Did you politely say something to them yourself, or just silently mock them behind their, um, backs?

 

[Boopuff]

Leggings are not pants. Too bad many women/girls don't have a "rear view" mirror to double check the backside!

So what if she did?

I'm wondering how long you had to look at their backside to determine the type of underwear they were wearing.

This is why workout gear doesn't belong outside of the gym or your house. I hate how yoga pants have become acceptable (not to me, but to seemingly everyone else) public attire everywhere.

Ya know the People of Walmart site? Maybe we need to start a People of WDW one. There are so many fashion dont's walking around the parks. But it sure makes people watching fun.

I did take some recommendations from here though and wore sports bra's underneath my shirts this trip, instead of bra's. SO much better!

I agree with pp. I exercise regularly but won't wear my gym clothes outside of running and the grocery store on the way home if I am desperate. I just don't get how anyone can walk around in them and not feel self conscious

That has been started in the past.
Got shut down. (Understandably.)

At least the bits were covered? On a previous trip, I was behind a woman who was wearing a strapless romper. The "shorts" on this thing were going places no shorts should go, and were literally shorter than most bathing suit bottoms/underwear.

I dunno.. I think many people just assume that yoga pants are not transparent, and since it's sorta hard to see for yourself, they assume they're fine.

I would have no shame in approaching the lady and politely ask if she was aware that her underwear is 100% visible. Maybe she really doesn't know?

I can't recall ever noticing anything like this, but I'll be sure to keep an eye out on our next trip!

And I'm pretty sure there's no way a cast member can approach a woman about visible panties, without it turning into a huge embarrassing deal for both the cast member and Disney.

I can just see it now being reported in the media as a perverted cast member sexually harassing an innocent woman, who will then be pictured on the front page looking perfectly demure in her (transparent in sunlight but not transparent in photos) yoga pants.

I can understand why the cast members laughed! (I still remember the very awkward and embarrassed young man trying to tell a bunch of non-English speaking young ladies to please put their shirts back on over their itty bitty teeny weeny bikini tops in the Little Mermaid show.)

I'm glad! People of Walmart is really mean spirited, and People of Disney would be the absolute antithesis of what Disney's supposed to stand for (unless we consider the Cinderella's step sisters our new role models, I suppose).

 

[tomatecerise]

No problem, i wear my parachute underwear at Disney

You are not at all prudish. I saw a teen/pre teen yesterday at Boma wearing shorts that barely covered her underware, with a loose top that ended at the shorts. She looked like she was wearing pjs at dinner for Boma. If I was her mom I would have never let her out of the house, much less to Boma!

 

[ArwenMarie]

Maybe she forgot her skirt?
