Schools want to ban THIS, and many girls are furious

Schools across the country are putting a ban on leggings, and it seems students and parents alike are divided on the issue.

I'll be totally sincere: As a man, I love seeing women in leggings. They help accentuate the contours of a woman's lower body. If a woman has nice thighs and a great butt, leggings certainly help showcase them.

I have a hard time looking away when I see women in them at the gym. I would imagine by now they know it attracts male attention, thus one of the reasons they wear them in the first place.

Now, do I think girls in middle school and high school should wear them?

When trying to answer this question, I imagine having a daughter wearing them to school and receiving the kind of male attention I described above. Naturally, it makes me uneasy.

The issue is that a lot of women seem to wear leggings that look awfully tight on them -- so tight, in fact, that they ride up on their crotches and/or butts. Or, you could even see the woman's underwear through the leggings.

Again, as a man, it's a treat for the eyes when women my age or older do it, but I think it's inappropriate for a teenager to be dressing like that.

I think young girls should be allowed to wear them to school under one condition: they must also wear shirts, sweaters, or dresses that cover their fronts and bottoms. If they object to such a rule, then they shouldn't be granted permission to wear them.

I'm living proof that men can become sexually aroused at the mere sight of an attactive woman in leggings. Let's be realistic: Wearing leggings isn't the same as walking around in a pair of loose-fitting jeans. If women don't want to draw male attention, they shouldn't wear tight clothing.

Rest assured that if you wear clothing that accentuates your curves, legs or derriere, all eyes will be on you!

Do you think leggings should be banned in schools?

Do you wear leggings? Have you found them to attract a lot of attention from men?

leggings are very comfortable and they go with most everything and they are warm bit maybe you sould wear a skirt or a long shirt if you are at school

Omg. Go with everything? Kinda like Capri pants or cargo shorts? Leggings are never appropriate alone, unless you are a dancer. It's a poor fashion choice and it's distasteful. Come on ladies put in some effort or throw on some jeans. I'm over it. Gross.

Not on the street, because I wear them under something baggy and knee-length for a salwar-kamiz look.

I've worn tight leggings in the pool...they didn't hold up too well, but did they ever attract attention!

This will spell the end of your relationship

When asked to think about the most common culprits for a relationship's going south, most people will point to cheating, complacency, and taking one's partner for granted. While these are all valid -- and documented in various posts on this blog -- there are certain habits on the part of partners that may not kill the relationship right away, but cause it to erode more gradually.  Among the most egregious of these is expecting your significant other to be perfect. They pick at your follies any chance they get. Nothing you do is ever good enough. In fact, you will never measure up to an ex, neighbor, or accomplished co-worker.  Perhaps this all sounds a bit familiar.  When you feel as though you're constantly being put under the microscope, it can inflict lasting damage on the relationship and your self-esteem. You're walking on eggshells all the time, praying you don't say or do something that's going to trigger your partner. This is no way to live, let alone ca

No response from someone IS a response

Make no mistake about it: When you don't get a response from someone -- whether they fail to answer your texts or return your phone calls -- it is  still a response, and a powerful one at that. When a person fails to respond, it's a direct reflection of their interest -- or lack thereof -- in the relationship. Few things are more aggravating than having to hound a partner, friend, or relative for some sort of reply after we've reached out to them. Yes, we get busy from time to time, but that doesn't give anyone the right to leave the other person hanging. A terse text with something like "Been busy, will reach out soon" doesn't say much, but at least it shows some effort to bring the other person up to speed on why they've fallen off the radar. Failing to provide a response for weeks -- if not months -- communicates that you are just not a priority, and that you'll have to wait your turn to get this individual's attention. This is n

Misconceptions about quiet people

Earlier today, I came across a Facebook page that features motivational quotes intended to improve people's moods and enhance their overall self-esteem. Interestingly, I noticed two quotes that focus specifically on quiet people: "Be afraid of quiet people; they're the ones who actually think." "The quietest people have the loudest minds." I've observed that most people's views of quiet individuals can fall under one of two categories: 1. The ones who say quiet people are antisocial, suspicious, snobbish, and/or full of themselves. 2. The people who say their introspective nature and propensity to be deep in thought makes them smarter than their more garrulous peers. The quotes above speak to this mindset. As an introvert known to be quiet at work and at social functions where I might not know anyone, I feel I'm well positioned to dispel any inaccuracies surrounding quiet folks. First of all, the above statements misguidedly put
