Honestly, I'm not much of a fan. I feel like girls like to make the excuse "its comfortable" so they can wear them whenever they want. But everybody knows why they're wearing them. It's because it defines their legs and butt. Unless you're actually exercising, doing yoga, or actually need leggings for say, a skirt-- there really isn't a better reason to wear them besides to show off curves.
If you want to be comfortable and warm, wear sweatpants like any normal person would. You don't need $100 Lululemon yoga pants to chill in your own house. It's a lazy way to show off your figure, and I usually see it as a negative if a girl insists on wearing them almost everywhere.

I like leggings, and I believe they are totally fine even as formal wear.
I personally think exposing legs is far less appropriate (dresses/skirts).
But of course, when I say that I'm talking about the leggings that are supposed to be worn as pants, not about the yoga pants that people choose to wear outside of the gym.
Often times, leggings grab certain areas that shouldn't be seen in public. Aside from looking very disgusting on certain people, I don't understand how someone can walk around in public with clothing that brings attention to certain parts of their body. Some people can pull off leggings, they look fine, but on a lot of people, it's just too skin hugging.
I have no problem with it as long as the blouse or shirt is long enough to cover my crotch and buns, also if the leggings are thick enough to not see through. 3rd picture is how I’d wear them.

I thank the lord of lords for lycra and whatever else those pants are made from. Saw a big ol' sister walking to the Philly Walmart one night, girl had on BROWN SKIN TONE LEGGINGS, looking buck-naked at a glance...
y'all know what's up as soon as you walk outside and feel the damn breeze on your upper thigh. Feel it if you feel it, just know a wolfman down wind trying to sniff at your air. I would consider new options if my lady habitually was out by herself in just leggings; just not a LTR.I find it perfectly acceptable- just as I do pyjamas pants, leather-pants or really any type of pants that can be regarded as pants - and even some that might not even be regarded as pants, but I still approve...
As long as a person is not directly flashing private parts in peoples face, I really think everyone should feel free to wear exactly what they damn well pleases :)I find it acceptable. Even normal at this point. I wouldn't judge a girl for wearing them and it can definitely look good, but then I am also NOT picky or judgy when it comes to what I find acceptable to wear in public ^^ Whatever you like to wear, wear it and be proud.
Simple
Wear what you want but rememberIt's a quandary (the angel on one side, the devil on the other). On the carnal side, I love seeing it -- especially depending on how good her butt is shaped. On the other hand, it's just too immodest and revealing (lustful). Think about it: They're basically tights, and tights are something you wear under a dress/skirt. So essentially, you're wearing underwear without anything over it (unless you wear a long shirt or something).
I dunno. I don't really personally care for "leggings as pants" out in public it's just kind of weird to me, but you do you.
hi, being uk when you say pants is that trousers/jeans other more traditional wear before leggings came about?
OK if there bum is covered up by a top/cardigan, otherwise is showing a bit much I think. I feel like it's casual wear.
lazy boring style. i dont like anything tight, id much rather wear flared jeans or baggy utility pants with a crop top.
Something like leather leggings or thick black leggings work as pants, but anything else I would probably add shorts/dress/skirt
I can’t find pants small enough to fit me so I live in leggings or shorts. Oh well if people don’t like it they don’t have to look right
Leggings are a gift to all.. they are comfortable for girls and men think they are sexy as hell. Not wearing em is a crime
I dont really like leggings I feel weird, but you can wear it if you like. I'm a tomboy😅 😂 I prefer pants.
They're comfortable and practical. I wear them for a casual/laid back look. Nothing wrong with it lmao.
My thoughts are as you, normal in many societies and culture.
Publicly can be wear with small tops or long tops.
I would not judge anyone, no right to judge.nope i dont mind it, i actually like the look. Its only tacky when she wears those see through grey pants
I wear leggings all the time. It’s a pretty common fashion trend. Why would anyone judge you?
I'm so torn, on one hand I think they're trashy as fuck, but on the other hand they make my peepee the big peepee.
Excellent look, especially with high hels or knee high boots.
Love them. Think they look sexy any pants will do. As long as they show skinny legs and cameltoe.
