The videos elicit two types of responses from other TikTok users. Either the girls get confirmation that they have “the perfect legs for leggings”, or they get the message that they should not wear leggings. The reactions can therefore be positive, but also very harsh.
In the comments below the videos, several girls also write negatively about their own bodies. “When I wear leggings my legs look like sticks,” one girl writes. “I don’t want to know if I have legging legs, because I wear them every day and don’t need any new insecurities,” it can also be read.
That is the danger of the trend: it gives some girls the message that they should not wear leggings because they do not fit the image of the ideal #legginglegs. And that can lead to far-reaching problems.
