Hundreds in R.I. turn out for parade to defend wearing yoga pants (AP Photos)
CBS News and the Associated Press ^ | 10/23/2016

Hundreds of women, girls and other supporters proudly donned their yoga pants Sunday afternoon as they peacefully paraded around the Rhode Island neighborhood of a man who derided the attire as tacky and ridiculous.

Alan Sorrentino says the response to the letter to the editor, printed in The Barrington Times Wednesday, has been “vicious” and that he’s received death threats. He implored marchers to stay away from his home and maintained the letter was meant to be humorous.

But organizers say the so-called yoga pants parade wasn’t a protest against Sorrentino specifically but part of a bigger movement against misogyny and men dictating how women should dress.

Sounds to me like it is a battle YOU WON. God Bless.

Sometimes you have to “pretend” to fight.

Now there is a REAL important news item. Can’t report any real news about the corrupt Clinton Crime Cartel but they can sure come up with an important subject like this.

The so-called news organizations are as corrupt as the CCC.

One need only understand that libtard outrage is like a claymore. Only to be activated when what is down range is the enemy. No friendly fire. We mistake this for hypocrisy.

Either going to, or coming from their yoga class.


Speaking of which; does ANYONE ever graduate from these classes?

Hundreds in R.I. have way too much time on their hands.

My sister lives there and participated in the protest. But, she doesn't have time to watch videos of a Hillary or Trump rally.

It took only 5 posts to cut to the quick.

Because I, as a man, like looking at women’s labia, I wholly approve of yoga pants.

Just not on my daughters.

Because if these spoiled nit wits had any brains they wouldn’t be reading a local newspaper in the first place. I’m actually surprised they can read.

I would say I would kick my daughter’s butt for something like this but, my daughter would read this article, say “idiots,” and walk off.

But what is his opinion on Hitlery’s tent-like outfits. How about her roadmap top with PJ bottoms?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Thank goodness we are focusing on what is truly important in the world.

Perhaps we should amend the Constitution to ensure this vital right. (do I need a sarc tag? LOL)

OMG! Are those maggots?

Dear Lord, I hope those are just leaves or some sort of vegetation. Wow.

Oh, I think that's exactly what they want. There are a quite a few exhibitionist women, too chicken to be strippers, who love to show off their crotch while playing innocent. But don't men dare to look at them the wrong way or say the wrong thing or you are in big trouble.

It's more like "Men who THEY are attracted to are ALLOWED to look at them and display interest in them. But DON'T YOU DARE look if SHE is not interested in YOU".

But, as Trump noted, IF you are a star (ie, somebody THEY are attracted to) then they will LET you do anything you want. A truth which Trump has been attacked over.
