This. I think if he's guilty of anything it's poor communication. Anyone with a working brain and a drop of emotional intelligence knows you don't comment on the things you aren't as crazy about your spouse wearing. It's never going to go well even if they don't say anything you've created a negative space in their mind and for 99% of people that's not the goal with your spouse. You can make plenty of comments about how much you like an outfit and how much you think they look nice or hot. He started off well and should have stopped after the praise. I would just let it go at poor communication and if you want to throw on some jeans s little more frequently whatever your comfort level is. This alone isn't an alarming preference. And to the ladies who think it's cute that your husbands are embarrassed about what other women are wearing and think it's okay to make comments about it, you have an actual problem or rather your husbands donuts not cute, sweet or old fashioned. |
| Leggings aren’t pants, even when you spend over $100 on them. Hilarious that they were normalized by Lularoe and now all the snobs here think it’s ok to wear them anywhere. |
Haha "class." What made up bullshit is that? |
"Hilarious?" You have a lame sense of humor. |
| I dont see anything wrong with this .I've told DH that I prefer him in collared or button down shirts and nice pants or jeans over his usual baggy shorts and t shirts. I dont expect him to dress up for a day lounging at home (hey I'm in pjs right now) but more like, hey, you look good like this. He knows I like it when he dresses sharp, and it goes the other way too. |

| Leggings are better than godawful mom jeans. |

My husband thinks jeans are sloppy and really likes my leggings a lot. (I don’t own any yoga pants.)
People have different tastes and like different things. |
Nice, well fitting jeans definitely aren’t sloppy… |
|
A great set of legs and a well excercised ass look amazing in black lululemon align tights.
Saggy cheap leggings with lumpy thighs and vpl are not pleasant to look at. |
Every seen a bank bag full of nickels or dimes? Dimples… Not pretty |
Is this a man commenting? Butt shape comes from clothing shape/size, or surgery, not exercise. |
Uhhh, no. If butt shape couldn’t be altered there wouldn’t be thousands of stair master machines and Pilates studios. |

Well, you can keep wearing leggings all the time (except when you’re around other men and then you put in some effort), or you can try to do something he likes. Do you have any preferences about his appearance, or are you cool with him wearing sweats every time you see him (unless he’s around other women and then he wears pants with a zipper)?
I’m saying this without judgment. If I’m at home, I’d prefer leggings or pantsless. Christ, no pants is the best. But, it turns out, DH almost only sees me when we’re at home, and I’m always looking like I just woke up or just thought about working out. If I had to go to an event with coworkers or out with friends, I wore real clothes. At some point I realized he was getting the short end of the stick and not feeling special. I made an effort and he appreciated it. |
