Author Message iam72hrstv Yahoo User Posted: Sat Aug 16, 2008 8:01 am    Post subject: Is it gay for men to take Yoga? My dietician recomends yoga for my type II diabetes. My psycologist recomends yoga for my manic disorder. My foot doctor suggested yoga when I developed tendinitis from running. When I take yoga classes, I have been for a year, I am sometimes the only man in the class. Also, pregnant women get breathing advice in classes and yoga teachers mention not to do specific poses if a women are on thier periods. I like yoga and a few more men are taking it, unlike pilates where the classes are mainly women.

It's like asking, "I like pie, does that mean I have green eyes", or "I'm a doctor, do I have a dog named Jim?"Stupid question. NO, you're not gay for taking yoga. Yoga is very good for every part of your body.

They just put links to their web sites, it really annoys me.You have two people who have answered your question who gave the exact same answer to heaps of others.BTW: What is so bad about gay people? Back to top Jenny Yahoo User Posted: Sat Aug 16, 2008 8:24 am    Post subject: No, it's not gay at all! There is a lot of ignorance and stereotyping about yoga here in the US (in some places), which is why a lot of men won't even try it. They think it's just too "girly", but that is just dumb! I say, keep doing yoga if it makes you happy and feels good. Don't worry about it being "gay" just because you are a guy. If men in India can practise yoga and still be considered manly, then you have nothing to worry about!
