    I've seen some awfully traumatic things in my many years of commuting.
    Not to be that guy, but I don't think anything can beat my commute behind the guy with the "livestrong" shorts that were torn.

    Along the crack.

    Tore the arse out of a pair shorts not so long ago hopping a gate for a toilet break, thought I'd be grand as I was on quiet roads and only 1km then through town to home.

    I'd say every car that passed me beeped, they snagged on the right side so it was only a half moon :o

    Cycling though Ranelagh one day I had to stop and tell a poor girl on the footpath that her skirt was caught on her bag at the back... Any given day in the gym there are more thongs, strings, french, commando etc on show than all my commutes combined so I can only assume its well known to all.

    When asked to comment, Livestrong said: "It's not about the crack!".

    A photo was passed around the newsroom years ago; every man nodded and said "Nice picture!" and every woman looked, looked again and hooted with laughter. It was one of the great Irish marathon runners, whose shorts had failed to contain his manliness. The men just hadn't noticed; it was the first thing the women saw: Face - feet - package - hoooot!

    The perils of split shorts ... :pac:

    It reminds me of this case

    No one looking at such photos would be looking for a penis and testicles, Mr Nolan said.

    Today I saw 4 women on my journey and I didnt know whether to say anything or not. Their legging are completely transparent when cycling. I don't mean a little visibility but colour, pattern and label. Ladies do you know or would you like some heads up? If they were people I knew I would let the know but telling a stranger seem dangerous.

    Practically, what could they do at that stage even if you told them?

    Well, with that sentence lodged firmly in my brain it's likely the *first* thing I'll be looking for in such photos from now on. Curse you, Mr Nolan!

    Lads do you know that your boxers have slipped down and your hairy crack is on show? Should we tell you as we ride past?

    I get called on this all the time, embarrassed but glad it is said to me, I am no longer in my athletic prime (which wasn't all that athletic or prime when I was there) and it certainly is not a show anyone would go to see for free.

    I used to regularly see (i.e. follow at close quarters) a minor TV personality ride along in leggings stretched to the point of transparency.

    As a regular commuter cyclist it is easy to spot the people who are trying out commuting by bicycle. Some have the latest gear or using other sports gear. Many women seem to use old leggings which makes sense I guess but there is a problem. Today I saw 4 women on my journey and I didnt know whether to say anything or not. Their legging are completely transparent when cycling. I don't mean a little visibility but colour, pattern and label. Ladies do you know or would you like some heads up?

    Dangerous 😂😂 The fact you even considered the idea of saying something though.. more dangerous for you

    1) I'd suggest keeping stump. The possible repercussions are scary.
    2) I Think these issues are rare but as already mentioned the male crack half out is a barbaric event leaving me somewhere between disgust and bewildered that they must know it is on view? I believe we should be allowed to use these cracks to dispose of things. The odd cigarette butt or coke can down there might teach them!

    if you want leggings stretched to the point of transparency, Derek's the man for the job.

    ...on that note, the mental imagery generated by this thread is ...traumatic.

    The pic linked in the quote above?

    It does raise an interesting question of privacy, since that person isn't really identifiable unless you happened to know someone with exactly that distinctive backpack.

    If a part of your body were to be photographed with no possible identifying features for context, and uploaded to the public web for people to comment on, is it still an invasion of privacy?

    Yes - should have been more clear.

    Not feeling particularly articulate at the moment (long day) but I think it's disturbing that someone would think it's ok to post that kind of pic of a stranger - particularly a woman.

    Would it be less disturbing if it was a bloke?

    Difficult to say. Can you post some pictures of yourself in a thong and see-through tights so we can judge?

    Ms


    Its strange she does not have a skirt or a dress on. Maybe she is happy to show off like that, loves the wind on her legs and it was a beautiful day so maybe she was trying to get a natural tan as well. Surly if she was working or going to collage she would have had more than just them tight/leggings on if they are that see through.
    I seen a girl walking around town the other day and she had half her bottom on display as well. Heard something I have not heard and I am sure and her friends have not heard in a long time wolf whistles from a few horny young lads who also seen them.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.
