Dear Yoga Pants Inventor – Thank you.

Yoga pants often come under fire for their sexiness. Banned from many schools and workplaces, but certainly not from your local Wal-Mart.

These things remind me of the old spandex (also known as "bike shorts" or "biker shorts") debates from back in the 80's and 90's. At my school they were strictly forbidden, and given the fact that the trend was unisex, I was grateful.

Outside of school it was a mix. On occasion, there was some extremely attractive lady wearing a pair of these shorts that showed her every nook and cranny, but more often you would encounter some old dude sporting a spandex, 3-d sculpture of his genitals for the world to see.

Yoga pants are different. They haven't caught on in the 65+ male demographic. They have however come under fire by many of the same groups. In fact, one Christian blogger recently published a story about how she had stopped wearing them because her husband had expressed that "even he" had a hard time controlling his gazes when yoga pants were around. She says that she is honoring God and her husband by wearing less "sexy" sweats.

I on the other hand think that yoga pants do a fine job at honoring God. They outline some of his greatest achievements. For this I say "Thank you yoga pants inventor." Of course if my daughter ever buys a pair, there will be hell to pay.
