Would This Disgust You?

C.A. asks from Dallas, TX

My husband, daughter and I went to lunch today. A woman was in the restaurant with a man and another woman eating lunch along with some children (I think three). The woman gets up to throw away her trash and when she walks by, I see her dark pubic hair. Her pants are so low that she is almost exposing her front. The pants are turned down in the front so it appears that she did it deliberately. As she returns to her seat, I then see her plumber's crack. I am so shocked that I whispered to my husband if he noticed her. When they all left, husband said he did not see any hair but he noticed her clothing and called it trash.

I still cannot get over a woman with children dressing this way in public. Would you be disgusted, shocked or really not care?

What can I do next?

She's just excercising her freedom to be unaware of how she presents herself in pubic...I mean, public

In her defense, maybe she was too drunk to notice?

oooh lawdy. Reminds of the time I got to stare at some guys balls the entire time I was enjoying my coronas at a bar in Tijuana. Any of y'all who live in San Diego know about daytime TJ drinking... anyway, some dude with super short shorts was sitting across from me the whole time. YIKES. Classic. I think some people are just OBLIVIOUS!!!!

I am very glad I'll be dead by the time pants with a triangle cut out to expose our crotches come into fashion. That's next right? I mean, why hold back? Sigh.

Disgust me?

Child molesters and rapists disgust me. I am disgusted by the idea of being forced to drink water contaminated with staph bacteria. I think it's shocking that, based on clothing choices alone, we'll decide a human being is equivalent to garbage.

But seeing some pubic hair? No, I wouldn't find that disgusting so much as unusual (per our socialital standards of beauty and modesty).

Of course, it would disgust me!!

Do yourself a favor, never look at the "people of walmart" blog. People like here all over.

ETA: I would like to point out, that public displays of pubic hair being disgusting...is not a judgement...it's a fact. I have liven in Texas for 27 years, and pubic hair out, is NOT something we should be used to. It's not like we walk around low riding, and peeking the goods. It's hot, but come on!! What kind of people do you think we are?? Geez.

I'm surprised that a young woman who wears her pants so low actually has any pubic hair. I was under the impression that all the young-uns completely waxed nowadays.

Oh for the fashions of the forties where we all wore hats, gloves, and waistlines were around the chest.

huh, I'm embarrased to say i've puzzled over your post for about 5 mins, I can't picture this, I've never seen anythign close.

Are you saying she had a flat stomach and tight abs and was wearing swets turned down or very very low rise jeans?? LIke was it supposed to be sexy and just went wrong??

Or was she obese and jiggly and was just having trouble keeping her drawers where they needed to be??

gross either way but in the obsese example i guess i would have more pity and in the sexy gone wrong example i think I would be more disgusted.

Whew way to much thought on this one. I think i'll take a computer breaknow and try to flush out my metal eyeballs.

sorry, i'll be judgmental - DISGUSTING. the style itself is disgusting to me, there is NO REASON for pants to be that low - but IF you are going to insist on wearing it WHY WOULDN'T YOU SHAVE!?!?!

to me that style is a bit akin to the boys (not men, boys) who wear their pants around their knees.

looks stupid. period.

answers from Charlotte on

Buttcracks I've seen. A woman's front like that? No. I think maybe I would have walked by and said "XYZ?" quietly and walked away.

Either she would have liked being noticed, or she would have fussed. Then I guess I would have had to say, "Well, if my pubic hair were showing, I'd want to know."

Of course, it's hypothetical because I wasn't in the restaurant. And it's easy to say what we'd do or not do, like Monday football couch-coaching.

To me it would be both shocking and disgusting. At least these guys who wear low pants with their boxers showing just look FUNNY, and at least the boxers are there to hide their junk. If they didn't have underwear on, you could get them arrested.

I would agree, it's really trashy, I don't know why it's so hard for some people to show a little more modesty and keep the bare minimum (no pun attended) covered up. One time a young women came into my work who was hugely pregnant, and was wearing super-short Daisy Duke cut-offs with the zipper undone all the way to accomodate her out-to-there stomach, so her underpants were showing and everything. And a too-small top so that the out-to-there stomach was uncovered and bare, with stretch marks all over. Classy!

I'd like to think that most moms/respectable people wouldn't knowingly go out like that. I almost liken it to having lettuce in your teeth, or tucking your skirt in your undies after using the restroom. It's really a shame to judge her instead of being sisterly & telling her that her goodies are showing. I think when you assume, well, you know how the saying goes...

I see just as many clothing offenses when people are fully covered. I honestly don't really pay enough attention to care or think too much about how people look or what they're wearing, though. I couldn't tell you what the person who sits next to me at work wore today, and we were within feet of each other all day.

I think it's kind of weird that you were so interested in her that you were watching her when she sat down, but hey, to each her own.

answers from Columbus on

I wouldn't assume she was doing it on purpose. She may have gained weight and isn't willing to admit that she just doesn't fit in her daisy dukes any more -- that would explain the plumber's butt as well as the turned down waist band in the front (not necessarily intentional). Is it in bad taste? Yes, but I actually feel sorry for her -- some people just don't realize their new found weight does, in fact, show more than they think.

Im shocked at how many people are not shocked by that. That's the problem with American Society these days, people get so caught up in political correctness, If I had seen that I would have quietly asked her if she was aware that she was exposing herself that way. She may have responded very ugly to that question but she would know that at least SOMEONE outhere doesn't think that is ok and just turn the other cheek. People need to quit sitting being quiet and speak up for moral behavior. Thats just my opinion!

I think that children in tow or not (maybe they were her friends' or relatives' kids) she doesn't know how to dress properly. I don't care if it's "in" anywhere or if someone thinks they are "hot". It's trashy and it just says "I don't respect myself" and I bet she does know how low her pants are. I wouldn't be grossed out necessarily but I would think she doesn't have a lot of class - same as anybody in too short shorts or skirts or with their breasts falling out or who thinks I want to see their thong.
