Not classy The center star is too much flair - it reminds me of a pastie type of situation and I agree it draws the eye in an untoward way 😉 But I do like the Western style of the V. 6 Link to comment

It's all been great and very positive, and while we rarely see her on the show i'm just confused. When she first popped up here, there were some very strong opinions about her look. Tide seems to have turned on that, thankfully, and her dance skills are awesome. I assume she was ranked that low because TPTB wanted to see how her cameos turned out. She seems to be fantastic in every style, like a pixie version of Gina. I can’t think of another DCC to compare her to because she isn’t a girl next door dressed up like Maddie or Christina, or a unique glam like Amanda. She’s doing her own thing. I still get Christine Baranski vibes too. 14 Link to comment
LilyD October 17, 2021 Share October 17, 2021 The V-shorts look ridiculous! Sorry guys but I don't think it looks flattering at all and it looks sooooo 90s! I love the belt and buckle and agree with most around here that some seasons, the shorts were just too short! And I am also sure that a slight rise of the waist line will improve the way it looks on some of the girls as well. 16 Link to comment
LynneH October 17, 2021 Share October 17, 2021 I've never liked the current style of short. They are cut/altered in the style of underwear as opposed to shorts which gives them the diaper look. I quite prefer how the ladies look when they first put on their unaltered shorts, the fit is quite nice and attractive. 11 Link to comment

CrazyInAlabama October 17, 2021 Share October 17, 2021 From other postings over the years, the tights they wear have a 4" rise. Next week's preview terrifies me. The first jump splits are always very scary, and from the previews, this time will be very scary. I really wish they would stop the jump splits, and do other moves that in my opinion are just as spectacular, but safer. 1 Link to comment

Since we've seen uniform fittings, I'm here to get y'alls opinions. I think the V-shorts are SO much more flattering (length AND waist line) than the current shorts (commonly compared by us to a diaper...). Thoughts?? Both incarnations of the shorts have their pros & cons. In the earlier version I like that the bottoms have more coverage over the butt cheeks, but I agree with others who have said that the v shape with that one lower positioned star seems designed to call more attention to the cash & prizes. In the later version, I love the belt with the hip-hugger design, but hate that it seems like there's a lot more chance of butt exposure. If I had my way, I'd combine the belt & hip-hugger design with the more covered look on the backside. I even love it if they made the shorts look more like white denim cutoffs with folded hems.

Sadly, some women either can't or won't see through the facade these guys put up until afterwards. Granted, far too many scumbags like Tanner are good at hiding it until after the marriage then slowly drop the facade and make the woman believe that whatever negative traits he has are not because of his OWN failings, but because the woman is at fault. Family and friends (those with experience) can see right through him, but the woman is so caught up in whatever positive emotions she's experience that she's blinded to it. The guy might also play UP the fact that the family can't stand him but play it off as them against us. 8 Link to comment

When I danced under our costumes we just wore thongs - although ours were not as revealing as their shorts can be. I’ve always wondered what they do when it’s their time of the month as not a chance can/could I wear white at that time. 13 hours ago, Bellisima08 said: Both incarnations of the shorts have their pros & cons.

cherryblossom October 18, 2021 Share October 18, 2021 I think from years ago discussion that the there were built in panties in their tights so they didn’t wear any extra panties to avoid VPL. They then cut the elastic waistband off as it is higher than the shorts which you see sometimes with the practice shorts. 2 2 Link to comment

Lol because she reminds me of Alice from Twilight from some reason(I think it’s the cute nose).

I actually don’t remember anyone saying they could see through him? Maybe I missed it. I know I was uncomfortable with how fast they were moving and how young they are, which is in itself a red flag at times. Her family and friends actually seemed to like him too. Anyway, as someone who unfortunately went through this, abusers don’t start off that way. In public and for a very long time in a relationship they can be charming and appear very loving. They can seem to be almost perfect, romantic, ideal partners. Cracks in that facade can take a while. They target people who believe the best in people and think that with enough love and forgiveness they can fix anything. They won’t realize how one sided it is for a long time, that they are the only one compromising. Abusers also slowly tear down people with emotional abuse, destroying their self confidence, destroying their bonds with other people, isolating them. In between, though they can be great. For long periods of time where you think, ok we’ve really fixed things. It’s confusing and soul destroying. It’s actually amazing that Marissa at her young age recognized it early enough not to get tangled up further with marriage and kids and called it off. She’s a strong person. Other people aren’t that lucky. Guarantee there is someone you know, right now, that you think is such a great guy, leader, or pillar of the community who terrorizes his family at home. Someone you would have a hard time believing would ever be cruel. 22 Link to comment

Instagram and social media posts in classes and such look great, but on MTT? Not so much. I also remember this last year, and didn’t mind her cut. I am also now feeling a bit of Tori OD. They feature her a lot on MTT, it would be nice if they covered other rookies and vets for a better balance. All of this is a bit disappointing too because she was the returning TCC I was probably most excited about.

Probably TMI (lol) but just thought I’d weigh in. I, personally, despise Aunt Flo. I have an autoimmune disease that gets worse when I get my period. I got an IUD to help with this (stopped my periods completely) and it’s actually less hormones than the BCP I was on. This was a big concern for me b/c my mom had hormone driven breast cancer. I was a youngen for the 13yrs I danced so I never considered anything other than BCP but the IUD has been a life changer in my mid20s. I also like that it can potentially stop my body from dropping eggs so I can preserve those buggers for when I want kids. I wouldn’t blame the girls if they took BCP/used an IUD/etc. to skip and not risk an accident/all the body changes (bloating) that come with your period. Definitely to each their own tho and I don’t blame you or anyone else for having valid concerns! 2 2 Link to comment

I was just thinking about how popular cutoff shorts are and how you see people wearing them line dancing and stuff. You are right that jeans are made more stretchy nowadays so they could be fine to dance in. They could even use those jeggings that were really popular and have them made in white with the belt that has the blue stars. I like your idea of Levi's being the supplier of the shorts. That actually could be a really good marketing tie-in for both companies. I can just imagine the advertising slogan..."The all-American denim short for the all-American sweethearts"! 9 Link to comment
