Women half-naked in pseudo workout gear shopping at Whole Foods?

[Anonymous]

I shop at Aldi’s. Nobody is half naked at that place.

Assuming you're at least upper middle class, why are you wasting free time grocery shopping when you can afford delivery or curbside? It all suggests you're very thirsty and desperate for attention, which, at your advanced age, is especially pathetic.

I'm trying to imagine where you'd be coming to and from dressed like that, then just decide to pop into Whole Foods. I have seen it both in the city and in a boring suburban Whole Foods - a long ways from LA or Miami! They are dressed like a Kardashian doing a raunchy photo shoot - but they're out in public at a freakin' grocery store walking around with boobs barely covered!

I saw this yesterday at WF and wondered w-t-f was wrong with the 20-something gal. Boobs were popping out. So tacky.

Maybe it's partly due to celebrities wearing see through clothes to events.

And they all drive blacked out SUVs or white SUVs with black wheels. And they're always on Facetime while walking into Whole Foods. It's a whole production.

I used to teach workout classes where I generally wore a longline sports bra and exercise shorts. Sometimes I'd run to the grocery store across the street (gasp Whole Foods) to grab lunch when I didn't have time to pack one or just to pick up a few grocery items on a break between classes.

I was dressed in the same clothes I might wear to go for a run in the same neighborhood or to take my kid to the park on a very hot day. It never occurred to me to "cover up" to spare the DCUM gossips from seeing my thighs or a hint of cleavage or sliver of my torso. If it was cold out I might thrown on sweats but if it was cold out I likely would have been wearing leggings anyway.

This is such a dumb thing to get worked up about.

I commented this on the swimsuit thread and will again here: I’m so glad I left the dc area.

Getting attention is probably a big part of the reason why someone would go to the grocery store almost naked. So I don't understand the problem if a passerby shares their reaction.

I only do a double take when it's flesh colored. And a lot of these do seem to be flesh colored so people look nude at first glance.

Quit going into public settings half naked. It's not trendy, it's wildly inappropriate.

I assume they are desperate for attention. You don’t have a shirt or hoodie you can throw over yourself? Would you come to my house for dinner wearing this? How about fly on an airplane? Wear this to your kids school? No, because it would be inappropriate.

We all acknowledge wearing clothing is expected by society. We don’t wear bikinis to the grocery store. But these “workout” outfits are just as revealing.

Jelly at Whole Foods, mmm.

That is an even weirder take than this post. Lots of people in their 40s go grocery shopping.

Thanks for dropping your stinky stanky sweat on the food.

Who are you to judge what to wear?

Soon women will wear their thong bikini into Whole Foods and everyone here will say “it’s fiiine. Body positivity!”

You know what, I agree with Op and I wear athleisure wear practically everywhere. We need to bring proper modesty back, time and place. If I would not dress like that in an office or social setting I'm sure not going to dress like that in a grocery store. Slapping a jacket on when going into the store is not a huge deal and I do it every time. These people are exhibitionists who just want attention and sadly they get it but they also get laughed at a lot.

And while we're at it, enough with the bedroom slippers everywhere. JFC, you walk around outside and then wear these all over your house? So disgusting and lazy.
