    I'm so tired of backless, stringy, 'fancy' workout clothes that confuse women into thinking it's acceptable to wear them as outfits. It's not. Stop being lazy and get dressed. I'd rather workout clothes be kept simple and well fitting with clean lines. Short sleeved moisture wicking tops that are longer. Real compression; I've really only found appropriate workout bottoms at Fabletics, everywhere else doesn't offer the same level of support.

    I like low backs and stuff. I don't want stuff sticking to me and I like to see my muscles when I workout. I'm not lazy. I spend over 10 hours per week lifting weights.

    I think you missed my point. I think it is lazy when women substitute workout gear for actual clothing to go to actual events.

    Yeah. I live in my workout gear. I will go wherever I want in it. I think it looks fine.

    Make tank tops NOT cling to mah belly!!

    Same.

    I'd like a pair of shorts that aren't corny and long to the knees, but that my *kitten* also does not eat. For now I pretty much can't wear them.

    This. Too short and I get rash on my thighs. any below my knee I call sweat PANTS. Bermuda short length and style is perfect, made from wicking type material that is a little looser, but not so loose it moves too much and causes a rash.

    7" shorts are my go to. (Usually Under Armour or Baleaf). I know by now that they HAVE to be "7"". ETA: I go with the tight stretchy shorts though.

    Nah. I mean bermuda's might be comfortable but I really don't like how they look. Can't do it
