Leotard or Unitard?

Compare and contrast...go!

a unitard has legs. A leotard does not.
BigV • Mar 30, 2007 12:18 pm
leotards are stupid leopards and unitards are stupid unicorns, I think.
glatt • Mar 30, 2007 12:20 pm
That offends me.

Some of my best friends are unicorns.

I think leotard is DiCaprio's role in What's Eating Gilbert Grape.

A unitard is one lonely tard. Simple.

Unitard is one mentally ill person, leotard is a mentally ill person who is also a cop.

You are clever in ways that amuse me greatly, Merc.

Could you explain that please, I am having a thick-as-pigshit day.
SteveDallas • Mar 30, 2007 1:19 pm
I have no particular opinion, but I'm curious why you're asking.

I don't "get it" either. It must be a cultural reference to... something... I don't know. Help, please?

LEO is an acronym for Law Enforcement Officer.

It was my idea of a thread clone for, you know, levity. :rolleyes:

Yeah, she didn't expect . . . the Spanish Inquisition!

A unitard was late once. A leotard was born in August.
SteveDallas • Mar 30, 2007 2:19 pm
Ah, OK, thank you. (I'm still kind of slow picking up these cloned threads.)
Clodfobble • Mar 30, 2007 3:36 pm
From Cloud's link, this is called a "liturgical leotard." WTF??
Trilby • Mar 30, 2007 3:39 pm
why no mention of legotards? Deliberately ignoring legotards? They are people too, you know.

It's obviously what you wear when you want to be worshipped.

Then I'll bet Ibram's got 'em.

Yeah, but not to be worshiped.

I take it as my civic duty to run over anyone riding a bicycle who is wearing spandex.

I've been meaning to say that for a long time and this thread seemed like a good place to say it. I started to put it in the confession thread except that thread is kind of dead and I didn't feel like getting called out in the thread bomb thread.

Me too! Why?

what's a cloned thread?
Cloud • Apr 2, 2007 7:32 pm
there's the ever popular "fucktard" too--but I don't think it would be comfortable to wear one.

A clone thread is one whose main purpose is only to turn the title of another thread into a joke somehow.

The liturgical leotard is totally not a leotard. However, what it is, is a garment to be worn by worship dancers, who dance as part of church services. It's a relatively recent trend in US churches -- generally they wear flowing robes, do a lot of lyrical arm movements, and interpret the music used in the service.

Culturally speaking, it means that the bigger churches' desire to attract more people who don't want to sit through boring sermons has overtaken their disapproval of dancing.

As a dancer, I say unitards are better because leotards create the worst panty lines known to man.

Four years of ballet with arthritis (and other stuff I did not know I had at the time)... I wore leggings, but hate anything that looks like spandex. They look like pain to me.
