Ladies - would YOU tell a fellow female if her leggings were see-through?

Even worse are bathing suits that have become transparent in the back over time. Many times I, or someone else, has told a water aerobics student about their suit. You really can't see your own back! I've never seen anyone get mad, they are just grateful someone told them. I noticed one of my mine was getting thin when I took it off in the shower - I threw it away without even taking it home.

Unless you could see her “goodies” I wouldn’t say anything...although I was wearing a tulle skirt once that I had no idea was sheer under certain lighting (I.e. Target) and two girls very sweetly came up and complimented me on how I looked, but also added that they could see through it. It was a genuine comment and I appreciated the “softening” of the “blow”. I immediately bought leggings and changed in the dressing room
At the store! Had it been the gym I wouldn’t have cared (not concerned with panty-lines, seeing them a minute when squatting, etc) but a public store - yes.

How could she not know her leggings are see-through? I'm guessing "see-through" doesn't actually mean "see-through".

I always tell people when they have stuff in their teeth or TP on their shoe or flying low etc. I would 100% want to know if it were me, so I figure you've gotta pay it forward. See-through leggings is a dangerous one though, cause some are so egregious that you've got to assume its on purpose lol

Some of them don't look see-through till you put them on and do squats. And not every gym has enough mirrors to be able to see your own back side.

I would have. I have worn workout pants that were see through and I didn't know at all. They were black and didn't look see through at all when I looked at them in the mirror, however, when I was on the leg press and my legs were at 90 degrees, stretching out the material, I could totally see the skin on my thighs! I went into the locker room, did a stiff leg dead-lift and turned around, looked in the mirror and yup, see through! The worse part is that I work out during lunch at the gym that is at my work so it's people I see everyday.

I just accept that sometimes my underwear are gonna show, so I opt for fuller coverage underwear. So she could be like me and just not GAF. But I wouldn't be offended if somebody told me though.

I would say something. And would wanna be told if that was me.

I once wore leggings that I didn't know we're see through in the back. I don't wear leggings unless I'm hanging around the house (I exercise at home), but I did go out to get the mail. I was wondering disturbed/embarrassed when I went to the bathroom later and could see my underpants through the leggings!!!!

Once I saw a last at the store with a big joke in the butt of her pants. I told her and she borrowed her husband's jacket and will it around her waist.

I would want to know, and I would tell someone. It is really weird to me that people WANT their underwear to show... Why not just buy some booty shorts?
