4 Reasons To Stop Judging The Girl Wearing Yoga Pants

Leggings, yoga pants, spandex shorts, activewear… AKA devil pants.

There seems to be this idea that if you’re a woman wearing any of these things, you are lesser. You’re lazy, slutty, attention-seeking, lacking self-respect, blah, blah, blah. But let me explain why wearing yoga pants doesn’t make me the one with the problem.

1. I dress for myself.

Six out of the seven days in a week, I’m running late. Which means I don’t have time to pick out the perfect outfit and then pack a different one for the gym later. I don’t dress to impress you, to gain your attention, or show off anything I may have; I simply feel my best when I’m comfortable.

2. If a man can’t focus on anything but my ass, whose fault is that?

If your life revolves around what I chose to wear, you might need to reevaluate your priorities. I am in no way looking to draw your attention, in fact I may just be overestimating your self-control.

3. “There’s a special place in hell for women who don’t support other women.”

It’s about to time for women to stop shaming each other. My pants don’t make me less than you, and they certainly don’t give you the right to judge me. Leggings don’t make me a slut, they make me comfortable.

4. My clothing doesn’t define who I am as a person.

I am successful, smart, happy, I don’t sleep around, and I hold myself to exceedingly high standards–but somehow that all flies out the window if I ‘degrade’ myself by wearing comfortable, stretchy pants.

So please, get a grip and stop worrying about my choice of attire.
