I'm a guy. I don't understand why women wear leggings "as pants". I can understand a woman wearing leggings under a dress. But with just a small shirt or tube-top or halter-top? It makes no sense. For one, I can see the outline of their buttocks and their buttcracks due to the leggings' form-fitting nature. Not something I want to see. Even worse, I can see the outline of their cameltoe. I'm a gentleman, and I think a woman's "jewels" should only be seen by her lover during sex, but not by the rest of the general public.
My girlfriend just bought some pink leggings. I think they are too "revealing". She says it's not. She also just wears leggings as "pants". I took a picture of her in the pink leggings. She wears this to the gym, or when she's going out to shop. She either wears these leggings with a sports-bra or a tubetop.
Here's a picture of her in her leggings:

Yes, she wears it in public.

Am I wrong to think these are too revealing?
Why do women choose to wear leggings as pants?

Yeah, leggings are suppose to be an alternative to stockings. It should be worn under something like a dress or a long top. It shouldn't be worn as pants. I have a friend who wears leggings as if they were pants and I think it doesn't look right.

Even without looking at your pics, I know that such leggings are inappropriate, unless paired with some other article of clothing that covers the butt/torso areas.
Let me rephrase your question into my answer...
Leggings are the worst fashion RETRED out there... PERIOD.
Girls who wear them wish to attract attention and have no consideration for the sensibilities of others, ESPECIALLY of her own BF! She is selfish.
My advice... express your dissatisfaction with her wearing such things "in public." If she disregards your feelings, reconsider her as a GF!
Have a polite day.

You're are entitled to have your opinion. I personally agree with you and don't see how anyone could ever wear leggings just as pants. I only wear them under skirts and dresses. If your girlfriend is OK with it- let her be. She has a hot bod and confidence. She won't be young forever, so let her live it up while she can! Be proud and show her off!!!!

Those are gross! You're definatly right, they are way to revealing. I can understand why she would wear them to the gym, but that's pretty much it. She should not wear those when she shops or really anywhere in public (again, except for the gym) You should burn them next time you see them go through the wash.

Eww...I did not need to see that picture.
I love leggings but I wear them under dresses or long tops. I have never seen anyone wear them with a small top.
I would think with a tube top she would look like a cheap trashy hooker. Just m,y opinion though.

Lol she got a nice butt but wow I think that is a bit too revealing to wear in public - she should definitely wear something on top of them

Sorry but if she is wearing these in public without a skirt or shorts she might as well just be naked. I don't think they were meant to be worn by them selves.

Wearing leggings as pants is definitely too revealing. (I find it disturbing actually. ) They are intended to be worn under something, not by themsleves.
