BARRINGTON, R.I. (WPRI) — In just a short amount of time, more than 100 women have made plans to wear yoga pants and march in a parade down a street in Barrington.
The parade comes in response to a Barrington Times letter to the editor written by a town man about his dislike for yoga pants.
The backlash to Barrington resident Alan Sorrentino’s letter came almost immediately, with many women taking offense and sharing their feelings on social media and the Barrington Times website.
WPRI’s news partners at The Providence Journal spoke to the woman who organized the event and she said she was half-joking when she first mentioned a parade.
“As a joke, I said I have extra pairs everyone can borrow. Let’s go have a parade,” Erin Johnson said in an interview with the Journal. “I thought it would be funny if everyone went and protested in yoga pants, everyone over 20.”
The “Yoga Pants Parade” is planned for Sunday at 2 p.m. on Sorrentino’s street.
Got that right.
Ha ha!
Without pants there would be a Yogi Bear, unless it was just a Boo boo
I’m 50....still have OK looking legs..walk a lot..and wear yoga pants out and about as ‘mommy outfits’, TBH. I wear sporty tops long enough cover my rear-end (and other places) and DO NOT let my sports bra straps show. Ugh. The other times I dress up fashionalbly. Especially for church and social affairs. I’m a fashion diva......but since having kids, homeschooling, and taking care of elderly parents.......ya’ take what ya’ get these days. I never used to leave the house w/o my makeup and hair perfectly done.
It’s called.........LIFE.
I love those pants but I TOTALLY think I shouldn’t have to conceal me staring at their as$ AT ALL.
She wears them cuz she WANTS that:
Why should I be ashamed of giving her the attention she craves..?
Yoga pants are the greatest invention ever.

But they should come with size and weight restrictions.
These women are slaves to their spite. It makes them walk in groups in yoga pants to “punish” a man they don't know.
Geez, go hug your neglected kid.
No room in the page to run a letter detailing Hillary’s crimes though, right?
“Yoga pants are the bacon of clothing!”
That’s Post of the Day material right there!!
Big deal, since yoga pants are the uniform of the week, they can parade all they want. No one will notice.
Classless, Lazy, Poor grooming
LOL!!!
Depending on who shows up for that march, could require eye-bleach.
Yeah, wondering if anybody will do a TV spot or article on women who shouldn’t have worn them (which, I assume, will be ALL of them, since only women who shouldn’t wear them would’ve been offended). I assume not, since the Trump backlash.
Darnit! Nw I hv to dry ot m’ keybrd!
WHEW, THAT WAS CLOSE
