yeah as long as thier... solid.. i suppose its ok.. but i think it looks alitle.. eh i don't like seeing people (girls OR guuys yeah....) doing it... i'm just like i don't want to see.. alll that. Like under a short dress... it's cute, but as pants... like in place of.. jeans or sweats... :& nah.. idk i htink it looks.. icky. lol
i think that wearing leggings is only appropriate when the top that you are wearing covers your butt. ie. i have a dress that is a little bit sorter than i like it, so i put on leggings to cover the extra space.
I agree with katie. If the shirt comes past your your bottom or about finger tip length then it's ok but not above. then it just looks bad and unmodest
I dont like it - I think leggings are a great way to make a short skirt or dress modest, but by themselves - just as pants - 1) it looks really weird (not gonna lie - i saw this girl yesterday wearing just leggings as pants but they were like tight pleather/plasic - omg she looks like she was trying to be catwoman) 2) Im not sure that they are modest - there is just something about them being so tight - they show everything, might as well have just worn your underwear
Of course I dont want to be judgmental either - its kinda a preference thing too - you know if when you put it on you feel conviction from the Holy Spirit that its inappropriate (and your parents are a good determining factor too) Im not saying that I dont wear things that some people consider immodest, but just be careful as to why you want to wear just leggings as pants, and be mindful of Holy Spirit convictions :)
I don't think it's bad by itself, just... why? I just don't like the itme itself. It's like they were trying to make a t-shirt version of the jeans. That's what t-shirts are for.
Heres my opinion. As a guy, they make me lust, quite honestly. God says much about modesty various places in the Bible, and I don't think that they are modest. Even if they are not see-through, they are too clingy to the butt and legs and make guys' minds go to the wrong places. I like them, but for the wrong reasons. 1 Timothy 2:9-10. Grace and peace
I don't think leggings should be used as an excuse to wear something less modest than you would normally consider. If you wouldn't normally wear a shirt that just covers your behind with no pants/shorts, then I don't think you should wear that same shirt with just leggings. Same goes for super short skirts. If you wouldn't wear it without leggings, it isn't appropriate with leggings.
If you question it, then just don't wear it. Unless you think its ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. (which is unlikely lol)
I know a lot of girls dress to impress (saying saying you do or anything like that, so don't get me wrong) but if ya;ll are trying to impress a guy, be modest. Cause nothing is more impressive than a girl who dresses to impress God, rather than others. ANYWHO! now I'm off on a tangent!
Well, I think JayB said it. If a guy says it causes him to struggle, don`t do it. It`s an iffy situation on it`s own, but if you get a report that it`s a temptation, it`s best to stay away from it.

I agree with the others. Icky by itself. Definitely.

I agree ^
Japlace - 10/29/10 @ 10:34 PM
Well, I wouldn't do it! ;D
But on a serious note, I am in concurrence with what the others have said.

I think that it is ugly.... You need to wear it with a long shirt or sweater. but with a normal tee, no way.

I am a man therefore I wear no leggings........
on a more serious note as long as something else is worn overtop I see no problem with it

Vanessas ^above^ advise is very good.

I agree, Vanessa. Just because it covers doesn't mean it's modest. No,I don't think legging are modest by themselves. Plus, they look gross to me. ;)
