Good point, at this time of year in Montana it would be Yoga pants under the flannel lined jeans.

Now, as to making yoga pants mandatory, who decides what figure deserves yoga pants.

There was a story, somewhere in the Yahoo feed that the lawmaker that "started all the fuss" suggested the "law" as an off-hand remark, in the hallway, to a reporter who ran with it.

the question at the heart of this is, do lawmakers have a responsibility to create laws concerning personal behavior when they believe that behavior gets in the way of public order? or do they not?

[Leaving the Gentle Touch Car Wash: Jerry and Kramer driving George's car. Kramer is behind the wheel.]

KRAMER: Well, George has gotta be happy about this.

JERRY (indifferent): Yeah, yeah, yeah...

JERRY: Oh my God, Kramer, is that woman just wearing a bra?

(Sue Ellen is seen walking down the street)

KRAMER: Oh, mama.

JERRY: Kramer!!! (Jerry points to the lamp post they are about to crash into)

ELAINE: My God, are you okay?

KRAMER: Well I got a cut on my head and I banged my shoulder. (He has a large Band-aid on his forehead)

JERRY: I guess I have to bring his car back up to the stadium, if it can make it.

ELAINE: So how did this happen?

JERRY: He was starin' at some woman!

KRAMER: Well I couldn't help it, you saw what she was wearing.

ELAINE: What woman?

JERRY: There was this beautiful woman walking down the street wearing *just* a bra. I can't get that image out of my mind.

ELAINE: Oh...my God.

JERRY: What?

ELAINE: Was it a tall woman, in a black blazer?

JERRY: Yeah!

ELAINE: Ohhh! That's Sue Ellen Mishke!

JERRY: Sue Ellen Mishke?

ELAINE: That's the bra I gave here, she's wearing it as a top! The woman is walking around in broad daylight with nothing but a bra on, she's a menace to society.


[Jackie Chiles' office]

JACKIE: So you're driving in the car, you're with your friend, minding your own business?

KRAMER: Yeah.

JACKIE: Then what happened?

KRAMER: Well then we saw this woman, and she was wearing a bra with no top.

JACKIE: No top? She didn't have a top on?

KRAMER: Yeah. So I got distracted and I crashed the car.

JACKIE: Well how would you describe this woman? Would you say she was an attractive woman?

KRAMER: Oh, yeah.

JACKIE: So we got an attractive woman, wearing a bra, no top, walkin' around in broad daylight. She's flouting society's conventions!

KRAMER: She was flouting.

JACKIE: That's totally inappropriate. It's lewd, lascivious, salacious, outrageous!


or asked another way---is there a line? and if so, where is it?


I used to know a guy who met his wife that way, she was wearing more but he crashed his car because he was watching her instead of the road.

alright then, i'll be breaking the law all the damn time without even trying. I'm a woman of means. I am blessed with large nipples. even wearing a t-shirt bra, and on a warm day my nipples will still stick out. Just because some stupid man can't control his own eye balls I suddenly have to also dress in loose clothing? I can't wear a shaped top in beige in case I'm seen as naked?

I also happed to have a rather shapely arse that looks great in yoga pants, but I have to be dictated to by someone else as to what I can, or can not wear?

this isn't about being actually naked. this is about people that can't keep their eyes to themselves. I have a pair of skinny jeans that my arse looks just as good in as a pair of yoga pants, and a top that would still show my nipples if they stick out. are my jean to be banned too?

So, just how high do you want your decency line to be for all us women to climb over back in the dark ages?

In Montgomery they have a law against going topless in the parks. They enforce it more against men than women.




needlesandpins -> RE: Yoga Pants Illegal in Montana? (2/16/2015 8:20:06 AM)

My boyfriend's dad cut their stairs carpet wrong as I walked past him in jodhpurs. my ex was a bus driver, and I was the talk of the bus station because of how I looked in those jodhpurs.

like I said, it's not about being naked. it's about the dictation of a narrow mind with nothing better to do. I've travelled all over the place in jodhpurs. so, what's the difference? How do you ban one set of clothing for one sex without it then having a knock effect for everything else?

i have sometimes thought, okay, im looking at this girl, and if I get into an accident, can I use that as a pick up line!

“At no time during the hearing of that bill was yoga pants brought up," David Moore, a Republican from Missoula, told the Guardian. It was an "off-the-cuff remark in the hallway, and the whole thing just exploded.”

A bot off the yoga pants topic but similarly.... South Florida hot dog vendors were forbidden to work topless.... but even the cover up is interesting.

I don't care what anyone says - jodhpurs are *tasteful*.




Whippedboy -> RE: Yoga Pants Illegal in Montana? (2/17/2015 8:14:43 AM)

jodhpurs? why the fuck would someone wear those "everywhere?"
sad...




needlesandpins -> RE: Yoga Pants Illegal in Montana? (2/17/2015 8:22:31 AM)

Because when you have 17 horses to look after all day, every day, and other chores to do, it's a damn pain in the arse changing every five minutes. So, why wouldn't I wear them every wear? I also had to travel by public transport for years just to get to work, which was with horses when I was younger. school run, dog walking,horse shows too, jeez, it doesn't take a lot of working out. they were no different to me than a guy wearing jeans every day.

kkaliforniaa -> RE: Yoga Pants Illegal in Montana? (2/20/2015 3:41:05 AM)

The problem isn't just with what people are allowed and not allowed to wear. As one person commented, they look very similar when wearing yoga pants as they do jeans. So why is one type of pant allowed and not the other. Then you get in to issues with size. Some people like to wear loose fitting clothing, even yoga pants, so how is that going to be as distracting compared to someone who is wearing yoga pants that show panty lines. I say the government is spending too much time trying to tell people what they can and can not do, rather than running the country. I read earlier that there might be another/a new tax on sugary items. I'm sorry, but what right does the government have in deciding if I want that super size soda, that super size thing of french fries, etc. I'm fine if they require restaurants and such to have signs up saying "warning: soda MAY give you diabetes", but at least let me make the decision for myself. What's next? Is the government going to decide what color underwear I am and am not allowed to wear, along with what styles, etc.. .. With the government enforcing all these pointless rules, will we ever be able to make decisions for ourselves? Wouldn't that be a pickle. If we can't make decisions, how will we know who to elect for office *hahahhaha*

Oh, I saw a hilarious video of Obama trying to dunk an extra large cookie in a glass of milk. The glass was too small for the cookie to fit though. If he wasn't pretending, I think I'm scared.

The proposal would have expanded the definition of indecent exposure to include garments that give the appearance of a person's buttocks, genitals, pelvis or female nipple.

Still, the actual bill is suggesting this, so I can understand why he mentioned yoga pants as an example, as a tight fitting yoga pants does give the appearance of a person's buttocks, or even camel toe.

Oh well, crazy parts of USA! As my bestfriend would say, men who set such laws must be gay! Not appreciating the sight of the female form.




DaddySatyr -> RE: Yoga Pants Illegal in Montana? (2/21/2015 5:18:46 AM)


The story I read said that the representative and reporter were talking, in a hallway and the reporter asked: "What about Yoga pants?"

The representative quipped: "Well, they aught to be illegal, no matter what, right?"

I'm not saying this is true. I'm saying that's the claim.

I wonder about both of these people. The representative knew he was talking to a reporter. Unless you say that your answer is off the record, you need to understand that they're going to run with it. That's how it works; especially if you haven't said the same thing to a room full of reporters because, now, the reporter has an "exclusive".

The reporter needs to check up on their journalistic ethics. If a subject cracks wise, and then, immediately says: "No. I'm kidding" or something similar, the reporter needs to give a little lee-way before running to press.

I will add this:

Your best friend is a bigot.

I think you would find that gay men, by-and-large, do not hate the female form. I don't hate the female form, either but just like I don't need to see a guys twig and berries, I don't need to see a lady wearing pants where I don't have to be deaf to be a lip reader.

I am not against freedom of expression, but people have lost sight of the fact that with great liberties come great responsibilities.

Greta75 -> RE: Yoga Pants Illegal in Montana? (2/21/2015 5:37:52 AM)

I don't think it's bigot to say that a man must be not straight to be offended by the female form.

I think it's bad enough we have to ashame of our naked bodies in this world to cover up.

And then for anybody to regulate dressing at all is just ridiculous.

Recently, my rock climbing instructor told my girlfriend off to dress appropriately. She had natural big boobs. EVERY WOMAN in the rock climbing class was wearing exactly the same tank top, but her boobs were bigger, so she had a protruding valley while every other women was flat chested, so nothing showed.

We girls all just started addressing him as Uncle or Grandpa since then, because we have decided he belongs to the Qing dynasty, even though his only late 30's.

I believe that you don't think that's bigoted. Do you remember saying: "I guess you're okay looking for a white guy " about me? So, when I consider whence it is you start, I understand (a little bit) about your thinking.

I don't think we should be ashamed of our bodies, either. I honestly don't. I'm a nudist (where allowable). Can I wave my penis in your face, while I'm trying to slide past you in a movie theater to go get my popcorn or would you rather I turn my bare ass to you?

I whole-heartedly agree that body shame is an awful thing but, what about the people that aren't quite ready to see our bits, on display? Do they have some rights, also?

So, I think there need to be lines. Where those lines are is where the debate is and to just dismiss the views of other people is a good strategy, if you don't mind those people dismissing yours.

No one is suggesting that we should go back to Victorian times. Some are saying that I don't need to see some woman's "camel toe" (your phrase), when I'm on my way to church or, when I'm taking the children for ice cream.

I know little to nothing about rock climbing, but is there a chance that your instructor was hoping that your large-breasticled friend would make her chest as flat as possible to facilitate her ascent?

MercTech -> RE: Yoga Pants Illegal in Montana? (2/21/2015 1:59:31 PM)

Hmm, sounds like with yoga pants displaying muffin tops, moose knuckles, or camel toes will get the fashion police after you.

Just in an odd mood....
