Are leggings, jeggings, and skinny jeans an equalizer to women who do not have attractive legs?

Not really. You can still tell how much weight a woman is carrying and how firm her muscles are just by looking at them inside the clothing. Same as you can with a man.

jeggings.

The problem is, if the woman is very hippy this fashion is terrible. By making the lower part of the leg very narrow, the hips are exaggerated. However, if a woman has a balanced figure, but maybe a lot of veins showing, then leggings can be very nice on them. Letting them cover up while still still showing their nice shape. Plus, leggings are super comfy. Jeggings I have not adjusted to yet. Although, I do have a pair of indigo/denim leggings from years ago.

Not really. Leggings actually emphasize cellulite and extra weight. Jeggings and skinny jeans don’t have the same effect and are pretty much universally flattering, but I wouldn’t say that they make a person look sexier or more attractive. For example, I am heavier, and skinny jeans and jeggings look just fine on me, but they don’t make my legs look any different than they do bare. Leggings, on the other hand, look absolutely terrible, and I know better than to attempt them. Unfortunately, too many larger women are unaware of just how unflattering they are for their shape and wear them anyway.

And jeggings are actually a hybrid between leggings and jeans and are essentially just very tight and stretchy jeans, not leggings that look like jeans. (That would be closer to Pajama Jeans.) Leggings that look like jeans also exist, though.

No, they might enhance great legs, but don’t really correct many leg defects.

@Fly Not sure if your last sentence was aimed at me. I know the difference, which is why I described them as jean colored leggings, different from jeggings. I also have jean colored socks. It was the female uniform when I worked at the Armani Exchange shop in Bloomingdale’s. Denim colored leggins, denim colored socks, and a t-shirt.

Not at all, but starting to wear leggings instead of the 50s-style skirts I usually wear has somehow made me feel a lot more confident about my thighs.

@JLeslie Sorry, not aimed at you. I was clarifying what jeggings are for the OP, who described “jeaggings” as “leggings that look like skinny jeans.”

@Fly Oh, I had not really caught she had worded it that way. I agree it was good to clarify. Sorry that I confused your answer as possibly answering me.

I dunno. I have nice legs, always have, but I am not particularly curvy and this style of pant just looks really frumpy on me. I have friends that are bigger, but also very curvy, and they look really nice in pants like this. I don’t think it’s weight that determines whether or not the cut will look nice, I think it’s much more about body shape.

They don’t work at all for those steatopygian. And large thighs don’t work in them either.

No, they are not necessarily attractive on all types of legs.

Skinny jeans were made for skinny girls. I’m pretty average, but certainly not thin, and I only wear jeggings when I’m putting boots over them. I feel like they’d make a heavy girl look even heavier. Not sure how it would hide cellulite or bulges. And I’ve never seen anyone wearing loose skinnies.

@YARNLADY No, they might enhance great legs, but don’t really correct many leg defects. I know they do not remove glaring imperfections, they are no magic bullet. However, how do you explain you have 2 friends ”Brenda” and ”Cathy”, Brenda has a very attractive and sexy body Cathy not so much, not obese and such but unbecoming. In the warmer months when shorts, minis and shorter skirts are abound, you can tell the difference in their legs, how Brenda’s legs are way better and sexier than her friends. Fast forward to the cooler months where they are seen side-by-side in legging or skinny jeans then Cathy seem to have equaled her friend in leg attractiveness because of shape alone. Bare, her legs do not appear as smooth, either by odd tiny bulges, cellulite, blotchiness, etc, or even a bad tattoo, but covered the same way, hers are near equal in attractiveness to her friend Brenda’s.

Not necessarily. I’ve seen certain women cram themselves into pants like that, and they just look ridiculous. On many women, and even young (teenage) girls, I can still see bumpy cellulite and such in those pants.

As accessory yes, for example with a skirt or real long shirt, these fascinating fashions are equalizers.
They can let you go an extra time without shaving the legs, hide all those unpleasant aspects as described above, and help you feel cozy when it’s below freezing.

Worn as the top layer from waist to ankles, is probably a polarizer not an equalizer.
Some people look absolutely stunning in leggings. ( I used to, in running tights.)
Please do get the underlayering right, it will directly influence the kind of instinctual attention you get.

I can’t answer this question. But I can say that I enjoy the look. Very much.

@Hypocrisy_Central Your response to @YARNLADY is total hogwash, unless you have poor eyesight. They don’t look better just because they are covered up with tight clothung.

@zenvelo Legs can look badly for many reasons. Vericose veins, brown spots, scars, discoloration.

I was just thinking to myself how Hypo asks more questions about women’s clothing than all other jellies combined..haha.
