I was returning some pants. I took a short cut in a subway tunnel and fell in some mud, ruining my pants. The very pants I was returning.

I don't understand - you were wearing the pants you were returning?

Well...yeah, I guess I was.

But what were you going to wear home?

Elaine, are you listening? I never even got there!

It would be a shame if you had you wear pants to shop. I only wear shorts!

The signs outside most stores as I was growing didn't say anything about those either.

I was out working and got my shorts snagged on a nail and it completely shredded the front. I was still wearing them but my boxers were completely exposed. I went to a good will just down the street and bought a new pair and nobody said anything. The cashier even gave me a discount because I really needed pants now.

Stunning_Patience_78 t1_j1xdlpy wrote

The pants are covered by law, so they don't need to be specified. At least that's what someone told me once.

foozballisdevil t1_j1xhat5 wrote

Which law?

1

Stunning_Patience_78 t1_j1xu5v9 wrote

Indecent exposure laws. They say your genitals have to be covered. However it's legal to be topless for both men and women. So places stipulate that you must wear a shirt.

Note: pants obviously include skirts, bathing suits, whatever.

So I can just run around in my Grammy panties and call it a bikini. You can't make me wear any leg coverings. Thanks!

There’s a leather store in Wilton Manors, FL that you can get naked in to try on the leather and other sexy clothes. Workers can choose to be as naked as they want to be too.

But yes, you’d have to wear some clothes to travel to that store.

That's disgusting. Imagine trying on a leather pants that someone else tried. Even if they are sanitized the mental image is there.

I think that’s a feature to that store’s clientele. Also, sweaty dank Florida and leather doesn’t attract me at all.

Yes thank your mom for that or the nice person who made sure you had the clothes on your back that you went shopping for your own clothes the first time.

My parents did that for me. I did that for my children and other children too.

People before clothes were invented also need leaves to go to the leaf stores

But on the flip side, many, many stores to choose from and almost guaranteed one very local, and there was also plenty that delivered, especially in autumn.

cyankitten t1_j1vxukd wrote

Honestly, sometimes for brief periods of time I think argh I wish I could just go to the shops naked. Like when I’m in a nightie or pjs and I have to change bra on coat and all that on. BUT then I think well it would be uncomfortable eg barefoot, what if it’s cold. (I mean if we were allowed to this is what I mean) and then also as well as not wanting everyone else to have to put up with my wobbly bits I’m glad I don’t have to put up with everyone else’s wobbly bits and glad I don’t live in a nudist colony!

cyankitten t1_j1vy3cp wrote

I literally put on certain types of clothes TO GO CLOTHES SHOPPING. Like sometimes no or minimal jewellery, things easy to take off, also I tend to try to wear things I’ll probably wear the clothes with: like I wear a lot of tops or tunics over tights and with a long sleeved top under it. So I usually make sure I’m wearing that when I clothes shop.

oldsguy65 t1_j1wa7wq wrote

Well, I’m on the phone with my friend Bob Saccamano, and I realize right then and there that I need to return this pair of pants. So, I’m off to the store. I’m waiting for the subway, It’s not coming, so I decided to hoof it through the tunnel. Well, I don’t know if I lost track of time – or what, but the next think I knew, I slipped – and fell in the mud. Ruining the very pants I was about to return.

True story, I was at the lake and my son dropped a 500$ rod and reel setup off the boat. I dove in and got it but got my shirt covered in mud and moss. So when I got back to the marina I had my shirt off and went in to buy a shirt, but they wouldn't let me in without a shirt. So I made them bring me one outside to try on and then went in to pay for it...

There was a scene like this in a Hardy Boys novel one time... they wind up with no clothes for some reason and they have to get Chet to pick them up (in his beat up old jalopy of course) and go into the store for clothes for them. He buys them matching outfits (fucking Chet...)

It's come back to me often since then, wondering whether I could give adequate info to have someone go into a shop and buy me a fit on spec and be happy with the results
