Edited because a post dripping with satire and sarcasm which addressed the topic with humor while bringing up the hypocrisy of American puritanism which is still prevalent in the modern day and also addressed a poster on the first page who said flatly that breast feeding was indecent exposure ...is clearly a post too confusing for NSG.

The new body of the post is as follows;

"Myrth".


That is all.

Among the many sins Yoga pants commit for the Puritanical American sensibility is it displays the female form, and has the audacity to encourage physicality not just sexuality. We like our women a little more delicate and helpless thank you.

But why ?

Well, so we can save them of course.

Violence.

We live in a country where parents will cover their child's eyes over a bare ass, but tell them "here comes the good part" as the hero kills 20 bad guys in a row very often with extremely graphic violence.
Yoga Pants need more violence to be acceptable.

Also please;
Do not forget this is place where breastfeeding is considered indecent because certain perverts are sexually aroused by feeding infants. <ANd yes, that is precisely why, because Breasts are not genitalia. So criminalizing female chests while making men's chest perfectly fine to display can only lead one to a single conclusion-- latent pedophiles are afraid they wont be able to control themselves. Thus, breast feeding is indecent. Because no normal person sees anything sexual about a feeding infant.

Seek counseling please.

I don't see how breastfeeding and yoga pants correlate.

The true issue here is the subtle sexual repression endemic in North America; Society should simply stop caring if it sees a naked body or artifacts thereof. Indifference should be the reaction, not disgust.

That sounds very nice but it's downright impossible to create a feeling of indifference around [attractive] naked bodies.

I think this issue largely has to deal with religious beliefs, as it is seen as immoral.

Putting on a pair of sweat pants would be too much effort, I suppose.


Eh. Sweat pants are disgusting. I'd rather dem gurlz wear something that doesn't make them look haggard.

Do long pants show too much? Absolutely not. Yoga pants, from what I've seen, covers up everything that needs to be covered up. They are no more than another kind of long pants, a kind that was purposed to be used for Yoga.

Apparently it's the new trend. It's like what Hammer pants were in the 90s.

The latter is common in NationStates General. Especially those on the conservative side of the political spectrum should never forget to delete their browser history.

All that remains is to show that biological systems replicate in such a way as to satisfy the minimal criteria required for evolution to apply to them, something which has already been adequately shown time and again. At this point, we've pretty much proven that not only can evolution happen, it pretty much must happen since it's basically impossible to prevent it from happening.

The only taste in men I have is when I lick food off my body, sometimes my blood. All other men are ugly ass monstrosities.
