    Sure, let's all be politically correct, disingenuous robots. Everyone on earth looks great in super-tight / super skimpy clothing, and no one ever, ever dares to think "that looks really bad on you, you should dress more appropriately" as they smile politely while walking by.

    I figure it's none of my business what other people wear and if they're comfortable with who they are and what they're wearing, good for them.
    Beauty standards can suck it.

    I do mind my own business - I'm sharing my opinion on a message board, that is the extent of my involvement in what strangers wear.

    It's not about being politically correct or not. It's about not telling other people what to do. You can tell someone they look like crap in yoga pants. You might get punched in the face but it's your right to say it as much as it's their right to wear them.

    You can think whatever you like, have your opinions and be happy. What you can't do is police who buys and wears what, just because you personally don't find it appealing.

    What's wrong with people following certain basic rules? Isn't that the basis for civilization?

    Maybe their legislature should look at the max sentencing for indecent exposure. Three strikes and life! Hope this guy won't be a judge.

    I like the horror over nipples. Only female ones, though. Because male nipples are wholesome.
    What. An. Idiot.

    Because what I feel comfortable in shouldn't be based upon whether or not it pleases men.

    Any thing we wear can be considered offensive to some. It is all in the eye of the beholder.

    Visual attraction as well as repulsion are omnidirectional. You really have no control over who is attracted or repulsed.

    It really all comes down to who is the audience and what is the intent of the wearer. Every situation will be different.

    It is. And the certain basic rule in this case is "wear clothes" not "wear the right clothes". That's where the personaly freedom comes in.

    Why is "wearing clothes" important? I mean... if the purpose of the rule is to ensure that we do not see more than is considered "decent" (i.e. no genitalia), then isn't overly tight clothing simply ensuring that we follow the spirit (and not just the letter) of the law?

    It is worth saying tight clothes at a varying degree of sizes is something only women can get away with. I'm curious what the reaction would be by women to me wearing skin tight clothings at 5'11" 230lbs. I'm guessing not the "you go girl" we're seeing here.

    Body suit man!!

    I'll say again, you can wear (male or female or transgender or unicorn) whatever that heck you like. It bothers me none. Am I saying everyone's rockin' it and mmmm, I gotta get me some of that? No. Two different things we're talking about here. Just like I don't think you should police yoga pants, I don't think you should police who wears speedos at the beach.

    Speedos are the nazis of beachwear.

    I totally agree with this..... It can go both ways - its a matter of personal taste of both the person wearing the yoga pants, and the people viewing that person in the yoga pants

    Maybe their legislature should look at the max sentencing for indecent exposure. Three strikes and life! Hope this guy won't be a judge.

    I like the horror over nipples. Only female ones, though. Because male nipples are wholesome.
    What. An. Idiot.

    My nipples fire laser beams at terrorists. Why do you hate freedom and justice?

    Mine shoot taser darts! My nickname is Tit Wrangler. But I have to keep them concealed. Boo.

    Montana lawmaker says yoga pants should be illegal


    Personal, I think of them as the push-up bra for women's butts and do miracles!

    They ARE the push-up bra for butts. It's like spanx...but comfortable. Why wouldn't you want to wear something that makes you look like your best and feels like pajamas?

    I'm sure the look will die off in a few years and the next generation or two will laugh at the photos. Until that happens though, I will occasionally take advantage that walking through Trader Joes after a workout is completely acceptable and won't cause anyone to look twice.

    Except for when I forget to pack my flip flops and end up wearing heels as I pick up dinner. That's always embarrassing.

    If you're 400 lbs and want to wear yoga pants, I say go on and flaunt it!

    Honestly, I think every girl looks good better in yoga pants.
