Here in the UK we call them tights. I don’t know exactly where the name came from, perhaps from the restriction felt when wearing them. For me they are a number one turn off. Too many bad associations, like gusset creeping and wrinkling.<\/p>\nHere in the UK we call them tights.

I recall many years ago at school wearing tights. The gussets would always make their way down your legs until it was level with your knees, causing you to walk in a strange way. If you were lucky they wouldn’t ladder for a couple of days, otherwise by the end of the first day you would have put your nails through them whilst pulling them up.<\/p>\n
This would result in huge runs which started at the crotch and ran down to the ankle if not staved by a timely blob of nail polish. For years my inner thighs would display blobs of pearlescent pink nail polish, where I had painted a run in my tights. Lol<\/p>\n
Even more frightening is the prospect of your significant other wearing a pair of tights. I know that it is common knowledge that builders wear them under their jeans to help keep warm. Which is understandable I suppose.<\/p>\n
But I’m not quite sure about wearing them as a fashion statement. I know some can resemble tribal tattoos but still they are tights. And worn by men on this particular site.<\/p>\n
What do you think guys. Would you feel comfortable wearing these? Is it just me or does it seem totally alien for guys to be wearing these?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
