    I've already disqualified myself from wearing spandex. I've never tried a pair of these, but that isn't necessary to add these to the list of clothing I should never ever wear.

    ... I think men are trying to become females...

    On my way to work I heard some people talking about a product called Alpha. They use MMA fighters to promote this product... know what it is...

    Nail polish.

    wtf?

    I'm all into the support LGBT and all that. But if you're a hetrosexual man, why would you try to be girly? I understand if you're trans, or even if you're inter, but still... if you're a man, want to be a man, and love woman... DONT BE A GIRL!

    :laugh: I totally thought of the male-polish when I saw this topic! Hahaha! Yeah, no nail polish. Maybe black if you're goth, or a rockstar, but otherwise, no.

    Okay okay, I lived through the metrosexual thing and manscaping, murses/man bags, MAN-icures, having more hair product than your average teenage girl, etc. but I absolutely draw the line at meggings!!! Wait, did I say too much . . .

    Wasn't it Freud who said that women have p***s envy?? I think it's been known for years that men have "boob" envy ... They all wanna be awesome like women! :wink: :laugh:

    If I ever even considered wearing those, I'd have to kick my own *kitten*!

    Would love to see that! In a pair of meggings, please.

    Okay I know we like to "re-do" fashions of the past...ie: bell bottoms, leg warmers, jelly shoes, however..to go all the way back to the 1600s to get "hose or meggings'???...what are the fashion designers doing? whats next Breeches? Stiff lace collars? Wigs..white powder?

    A note, as a woman I do not have a pair of leggings for myself, had to wear enough stir-up pants in the late 80s- early 90s to not be seen in a pair...

    Thanks so much Cindy! No I wizened up. I'm quick like that - didn't fall for the man-capris either . . . barely. Its like a mine field out there! Note to self - do not shop while intoxicated, esp. if the sales girl is cute and paid on commission.

    In sport riding circles (motorcycles) pretty much everyone wears them beneath thier leathers. Not only do they help with wicking moisture away, but they proveid a slick layer of material between the shtty interior material of the leathers and your legs, particularly the knees, that keep the material from binding and make it easier to move.

    What the hell is with the bastardization of bad 80's fashion in the last couple of years? Meggings are VERY a short side step from skinny jeans, which are both too close for comfort to 80's spandex, and Uggs are moon boots for you kiddies who are too young to remember those.

    In my opinion, this use is totally acceptable. I also think guys who run outside when it's <10 degrees F may get a pass too.
