Yoga! Yoga! Yoga!

[Gator]

This is 2016 in a nutshell. Old, potentially senile guy writes a letter to the editor of a small weekly saying women's under 20 shouldn't be wearing yoga pants outside of a yoga class. All hell breaks loose. A parade, scheduled for today, is planned. Reading the comments on various sites, this story is the gift that keeps on giving.

I started doing yoga this year. Cured my insomnia after fighting it for decades

Where's the parade? Asking for a friend.

 

[TheSportsPredictor]

If I lived there I would be thanking that guy for kick-starting that parade.

How dare those harlots, wearing their hair in ponytails! They should be wearing them in severe buns, with not a hair out of place!

Who's sending the photographer? Is AP staffing?

 

[Neutral Corner]

I imagine that plenty of freelances will be shooting that...

They should do research here Girls In Yoga Pants

I'm still waiting for yoga to go scratch and sniff.

I think John Waters has done it best so far:

My letter entitled "College co-eds should be forced to wear bras" is scheduled to run next week.

I imagine there are people who get freaked out by muslim women not going full burqa. "Their eyes. So distracting!"

 

[HanSenSE]

How did I miss this thread the first time? And how did it last so long without a pics or GTFO?

Ahead of their time:

All of this turns working out from a healthy thing you might do twice a week into a Way of Life, where $120 leggings are more necessity than extravagance.

This line reminds me of the people who grouse that baseball has been ruined for them because other people pay attention to on-base percentage now.

Anyway, I like the trend. And the "trend" isn't merely yoga pants, but presenting good physiques in a way that is impressive but not overtly sexual. People look good. I'll take this over people swimming in their clothes through the '90s.

Full disclosure: My wife has a phenomenal ass.
