Pajamas when shopping

Two traveller women shamed online for shopping in Tesco in their pyjamas brand their male critic ‘sexist’ and ‘racist’
Their response: “We are travellers and we feel like it is sexist and racist. It’s an attack on our culture and way of life.” :rolleyes:

How come you never see men in pajamas wandering around the shops, then? I've only seen people in pajamas a few times in supermarkets and it really puts me off shopping there and then. Not sure why, maybe it's because they justgot out of bed or cannot be bothered to dress.

I love hoe much people will stand up and defend the right to free cpeech and freedom of expression in this country all the way, to death if needs be...

... unless there's pyjamas being worn outdoors!!

Seriously? Who the **** cares? As long as they;re not naked.

The pajamas were worn indoors in a supermarket.

How is it an attack on their culture or racist?

jonon9 · 09-01-2017 06:48PM

The words Racist and sexist loses its meaning more and more as time goes on.

Not even if they were dressed as Lady Godiva herself would I click a Sun link

punisher5112 · 09-01-2017 06:52PM

Its their culture no matter it is anything they dream up.

Racist towards your own nationality.

I'm confused can I say hi anymore or would that be classed as abuse of some sort.

Temptamperu · 09-01-2017 06:52PM

are they special going out PJ's or are they full of scanky midnight farts?

They are now terms which are used to counter an argument, when people have no actual clue about what is being debated.

''Hungover at 7pm while looking for milk for the baaaby'', Who are we to disagree when she describes this as her 'culture'.

I've worn my onesie to the shops several times, guess what, i broke no laws and nobody got hurt either, pretty painless transaction much like any normal day tbh

Disgusting clothing to be wearing shopping, will be a smell of benji off them unless it's a 2nd set they have just for shopping in.

Doesn't look very warm for living in a caravan at this time of the year?

Winterlong · 09-01-2017 07:48PM

I saw a couple of women wearing pajamas in the supermarket one summer sunday morning.
What made me wonder though was I could see the outline of their bra straps on their back. So they must have removed their tops, put bra on and then gone out to the shops. (unless they slept uncomfortably in their bras?).

Why bother...if you are removing your top - just get dressed properly.

Pinch Flat · 09-01-2017 07:49PM

I don't sleep in pyjamas, I wear me boxers going to bed.

The odd time I'll pop down to spar for a sliced pan or a litre of milk in me boxers.

I'm all for cultural enrichment.

I saw an adult man in a onesie in the Chinese take away last winter in fairness he was getting a lot odd looks.

Widdershins · 09-01-2017 07:57PM

Not great but taking a strangers photo without permission and very good reason is worse.

enzo roco · 09-01-2017 08:10PM

They could be sleep walking.

Some settled community members wear pyjamas shopping, is it racist towards them if someone critics it? Or does racism only apply when it's smaller minority groups.

Surreptitious · 09-01-2017 09:04PM

I usually wear my pajamas to go shopping for outdoor clothes and wear my outdoor clothes while I'm shopping for pajamas. Keeps 'em guessing.

r93kaey5p2izun · 09-01-2017 09:12PM

I think the women in the article are idiots. I would never leave the house in pyjamas. But, I think it's a ridiculous reason to get so angry at people and I couldn't give a crap if people wear pyjamas when out and about. My local shop had (or has? I haven't looked recently) a sign on the door saying no pyjamas as it has been a problem here. I think it's the least of anyone's worries here tbh and any notions that stopping pyjama wearing will heal all the other ills is bullsh1t.

"Hi" is short for Heil Hitler, you racist scum.

It's not as bad as it used to be, but when I used to cycle through central Dublin maybe 5/6 years ago, the pyjama thing was endemic, at all hours of the day and night. I guess it got on my nerves because it was only inner city folk who did this. It's bad enough they haven't worked for generations, but it kind of feels like they're rubbing their laziness and sense of entitlement right in your face by not even bothering to get dressed to leave their houses. Anyway, I haven't seen it in ages, maybe they've mostly copped on.

I know it's not exactly in public, but it's close enough that I don't see the problem in this case
