Yoga Pants Should Not Be Considered Inappropriate
Yoga pants are quite obviously as popular with guys as they are with the ladies. While this new fashion is backed in full by public support (the student body,) is there a line that should be drawn when it comes down to what’s appropriate?
Most say that they are content with the way things are now.
Over the past few years, there has been a dramatic increase in the percentage of girls who wear yoga pants, as well as the frequency. Jeans and dresses are now the minority when it comes to the typical girls’ first choice getting ready in the morning. This style choice has become an epidemic.
“I only wear leggings, yoga pants should not be worn on a daily basis,” says senior, Ashlann Wood.
Melissa Alberts said, “Yes [they are appropriate for school,] as long as they’re not see-through.”
This is one issue that I do see with the wearing of the forming pant, there are a select few that wear them every day. Once in a while is well-appreciated, but making it an exceedingly common piece of apparel can get old.
Discretion. This is the one bit of advice someone should receive when debating on whether or not they should consider yoga pants. Different styles fit certain people. If someone likes their appearance in yoga pants, then they should be able to wear them.
The popularity of this attire is evident, but are they appropriate for a school setting? According to a recently conducted Facebook survey, 52 people were in favor of their appearance in our public schooling system, whereas only 3 were opposed.
These numbers say it all, and in today’s culture we should not be limited to what we wear. Yoga pants are not and should not be considered risqué by any means. It is a popular trend with girls (and boys) and ultimately is a choice.
