    I see no problem with it unless I can tell if you are cut or not...Then that's just to much.... Same with some of the shorts women wear and their camel toes....Just to much

    Okay, can I be 100% honest here? Or will I get torn apart for it?

    Because in the gym who cares but when a guy walks into my workplace and he's wearing a full body tight spandex outfit I giggle. I won't lie.

    We have one fellow who comes in a spandex jumper suit and he's built like a tank and that outfit leaves NOTHING to the imagination. I enjoy the show but also feel it's a wee bit inappropriate for a public setting.

    There's another fellow who is a runner who will come in with his little spandex tights. Hee. Makes me snicker but whatever. I get it. You gotta be comfortable when you're working out.

    So ... yeah... I laugh a little when I see it outside of the gym because it's just not something you expect to see out and about but I don't make judgments about these men. I just think it looks a little silly.

    I wore under armour. I don't like to wear shorts over them. That is pathetic

    I'm fine with it in a gym setting.

    As you go about in public - the only caveat I would put on it is this "It can't be too tight that it would require an anatomy lesson or spur questions from young children".

    Yeah, that's about it.

    I am a tae bo instructor and I have seen old school videos of billy blanks wearing tights in his tae bo classes. I try to emulate him. I love wearing tights cause they are very functional for training. I train martial arts and I have strong legs. The UA tights don't show bulk. Also I ride bicycle daily the under armour coldgear tights work well warm your legs. I like tights more than shorts or sweatpants. It will sound stupid but I feel like a super hero when I wear them. ;-) . I am a straight guy. I dont understand why so much problem about it. Excuse my english. Women are not the only ones that can dress tights.
