I don't care about yoga. But this better not affect the popularity of yoga pants.

Oh man, wearing the clothing would definitely be cultural appropriation!  Probably a major micro-aggression too.    ;)

Yoga pants are not going anywhere guys. My wife wears them and she does not even do Yoga.

They might have to change the name to 'comfy pants' or something though.

I have been reliably informed yoga pants are comfier. I wear neither sweat pants nor yoga pants so cannot confirm or deny this. It might just be because it is Texas thus too hot to normally wear sweat pants.

I practice yoga but I couldn't care less about the Indian culture. I also practice qabbalah but I couldn't care less about Orthodox Judaism.

Am I: cultural appropriator?  :ph34r:

Yeah, need to change the name, for sure. Can't take a chance of offending any of the delicate flowers out there who may get a case of the vapors.    :boff:

There was no need to appropriate yoga. Christian tradition is full of examples of mindful stretching.
