You’ve gotten some answers already, but truly the main reason is to attempt to make your butt look better/more attractive.

On a related note why do people wear leggings thst have weird wrinkles or lines where the leggings bite into your ass crack? It looks so wrong. I’m not the only person who has noticed this, right??

What I don’t like about them is that it makes it seem like you’ve cast your butt in pottery or something, just completely rigidly fixed into that shape. To be fair I also don’t find leggings good looking, but they exist also for a functional, exercising purpose, and they’re good at that (afaik)

The wrinkles come from shortening the seam to less than the width of the fabric panel.
The seam being shorter means it pulls into the crack, accentuating instead of hiding it.

How is it that you know so much about leggings?

They’re called “butt scrunch” leggings, it’s just a style thing I think. I don’t mind them personally, but then again I think leggings are hot in general.
