Banning Yoga Pants
Rep. David Moore (R-Missoula) recently proposed a bill that would "ban any device, costume, or covering that gives the appearance or simulates the genitals, pubic hair, anus region, or pubic hair region." This was offered to strengthen the already-present public decency laws of Montana, which are unremarkable. However, a loose comment by him declared that yoga pants should be banned too, even though the law did not specifically mention yoga pants. The committee that considered it laughed it out of the room!
Wouldn't this apply to tight jeans too? And what about Daisy Dukes?
Apparently Rep. Moore did not consider the unforeseen consequences of his law. Somehow, in the Treasure State I don't see a disapproval of hiney display, whether female or male!
As for our representative, he reminds me of some of the doofuses in the General Assembly in Nashville!

I read this the other day. It seems that every state legislature has a doofus these days.
ReplyDeleteThe law would also ban nipple exposure -- male or female. I guess there would be no more shirts vs skins in boys gym class.
ReplyDeleteJohn has a point.
ReplyDeleteTight fitting yoga pants are great for showing off cute asses.
ReplyDeleteAnd they make uptight Republicans cringe.
I'm glad that our elected reprehensives are doing a fine job of protecting us from the horrifying dangers of nipples, public hair, and the anus region. Hmmm ... I wonder if some of our state legislatures would qualify for description as "anus regions" ...
