Post sightings of visible thongs (whale tails or otherwise), muffin tops, and other student fashion faux pas here.  This includes man thongs.

I myself have not seen a thong yet this semester, but it's still the first week of class.  I remain hopeful.

Do tramp stamps need a separate thread, or can they go here too?

What's a tramp stamp?

Tramp stamp is what they call those lower-back tattoos.

It is appropriate to post tramp stamp sightings here.

Nothing to report yet, other than many sightings of very short miniskirts all over campus (not that I'd notice).

A couple of years ago, however, a young female student whom I had for several courses and who liked me as a professor came in the classroom one Monday all excited and said "Professor RockProf, look at my new tattoo!" and proceeded to turn around and lift her shirt to show me this HUGE colorful lower back tattoo.  I'm glad the dean wasn't walking by the classroom at the time.

I saw a student with a very very short mini skirt.  Luckily, she was wearing a thong, or you would have been able to see her underwear.

What if the lower back tattoo is Really Big and covers most of the lower back? Is it still a tramp stamp?

No reason. Just asking.

If you're counting thongs visible because the pants were so tight and made of such gossamer fabric that both the fact of the thong and its color were apparent, then put me down for two. And maybe someone can explain why a woman would wear red underwear beneath translucent white pants that need to be two sizes larger.

Tramp stamps and muffin tops are hourly sightings around here.

Lots of VPL on my campus.  Not visable thong-age so much, but the lines of granny panties through sheer/too tight pants.

Lots of muffin tops and camel toe too.

It's when the pants are too tight and the love handles and a bit of the flanks and belly spill over the top.  Like a muffin overflows the top of the tin.

Does the foxersboxers ad count? (actually they look like they're fairly modest -- I should hope the students wear something over them though)
