A Christian Blogger Stopped Wearing Yoga Pants For Her Husband So She Wouldn’t “Entice” Men

Buzzfeed

Video from her blog


"Veronica Partridge’s blog post about her decision to stop wearing leggings or yoga pants in public is making a lot of people angry."

"Although many people online argued that her decision was “slut-shaming”, Partridge said her “conscience is clear”.

"The blog entry received both support and strong criticism. Some supporters quoted Bible passages and commended her for “honouring God and her husband”. One commenter said: 
“When a woman wears leggings and its all on show, they may as well not wearing anything from the waist down, in fact, it’s probably more sexually enticing than not wearing anything from the waist down in many cases.”

"Meanwhile, others criticised the entry for feeding into the idea that what a women chooses to wear dictates how men behave. “How about you learn to control your thoughts?” said one commenter. “Why do women constantly need to make it easier for men?' ”. . .
