Only a couple rules in this house the wife set down. The usual screwy mom rules but with me it's:
Not taking the trash out with a robe on is one of them.

When our girls were in their teens in 'Vegas with the GF's the whole pack of them would wear their PJs to the casino Buffett or breakfast restaurant.
Cute, smart girls don't give a fuck what people think.

I get where you're going, but my first response is to ask, is laziness attractive? Because yes, she looks like she should be in bed, and she's hot. I get it. But she's not in bed, or your kitchen making you a sammich. She's at a store, potentially making a financial transaction, and she's too lazy to brush her hair and put some pants and shoes on. Probably hasn't bothered to brush her teeth either.

While I do feel these pajama-wearing folks are lazy on a gut instinct, I have to ask myself, how does this affect me? What do I care how some stranger is dressed? Shouldn't I just be grateful that they are wearing clothes? Why do I get to determine what appropriate dress is? IDK. The libertarian in me takes over a lot of the time, which causes less stress for me in these situations. On the other hand, it's like bankruptcy, divorce, and out-of-wedlock pregnancies; the less judgment society offers, the more acceptable and normalized it becomes. 50 years ago these were things to look down upon. Now no one cares. In another 25 years or so, no one will care about pajamas in public either.

As you can see, I'm conflicted on the subject 🤣
If you start arguing that yoga pants should not be worn unless doing yoga, we will get you banned.

Could really care less what anyone else wears to the store, on a plane or in public for that matter. It’s none of my business just like what i wear isn’t any of theirs. It’s jeans, golf shirt, running shoes at work. Shorts, T-shirt and flip flops when I’m off.

Epic.

See it all the time. I will sit in the lobby getting ready for the day letting the wife sleep. So many people go down grab breakfast in PJs and head back to the room with plates of food. Probably the same people that stack the trash outside their hotel rooms. Maybe they also are the ones with their whole car filled except for the driver’s seat. 🤪 🤪 🤪 🤪

LOL, exactly! When I began teaching 15+ years ago, they were not allowed in schools. We'd send the girls to the office. Now, it's all they wear! No one even blinks an eye.

Is wearing pajamas while you’re on the boat acceptable?😊

I’m opinionated & think it’s awful! Comb your hair, put some make up on & some decent clothes before going out! That’s how I was raised!
I can say a time or 2 I’ve done a drive thru for breakfast with sunglasses, a hat & just some lipstick 🤪. Desperate times……,..🤣🤪🤣
Not all women need make up. I prefer those that don't feel the need to cake that shit on.

Someone that stacked their trash outside of their hotel room saved my ass once lol.

The hotels in South Arizona have hefty trash bags in the halls filled with empty egg crates, multiple cases of soda, stacks of pizza boxes for at least 20 people stacked in a room that arrive and leave in a big bus in the middle of the night. Can you say border smugglers!!!

How about steel toe boots with shorts. Id run that combo in the desert daily. You can't start a dirt bike in sandels. Might look funny in the morning when your getting all the stuff running. Shoot I'd where that combo into the night

That's my summer wardrobe. And in winter it goes to pants.

Early 2000s fleshgear the brand had dirtbike pants with a zipper below the knee. Just enough to catch a good pipe burn above the height of my boots from my cr 500 down the sand drags. I still have those plus the old school mechanics jacket

I wore pajamas all through college to class and will still where them out if it's really cold and I'm not going out long.

As far as looking lazy or whatever I don't give a shit what others think of me.

What’s the RDP position on sweatpants worn in public?
Asking for a sweatpants wearing friend.
