Men Doing Yoga

[Dashing Young DissidentSpectator]

Why the f~~~ would you want to go to Yoga classes when theres women there?

[narwhalParticipant]

I’ve gone to a yoga once in my life. I appreciated the stretching and lift your own body weight aspect of it. It would be good for me because I don’t like stretching, yet I would be more inclined to so with a group. I am competitive, so I am less likely to slack when there are others involved.

I don’t do yoga now, because it’s either too expensive, too much meditation for my taste, too trendy, or just too many women. I don’t have any problem with men doing yoga, I actually wish more men would do yoga, to the point where it starts to get defeminized.

All of these activities that men aren’t socially supposed to do. Like aerobics, dancing, yoga, etc. They all have their value and would be good for men to do. It’s not the activity that’s the problem, but how women have over feminized it.

Ok. Then do it.

Or t~~~s ordering a big mac meal then having a diet coke. LOL.

You know, diet coke is MORE UNHEALTHY than regular coke. Sure, there is no sugar in diet coke but diet coke is more acidic.

A tranquil mind is neither happy nor sad, it is uninfluenced by external conditions.

Aye and is has aspartame in it which is bad for your heart.

I’ll consider yoga, as feminized as it is, if it teaches me to suck my own dick.

All my life I've had doubts about who I am, where I belonged. Now I'm like the arrow that springs from the bow. No hesitation, no doubts. The path is clear. And what are you? Alive. Everything else is negotiable. Women have rights; men have responsibilities; MGTOW have freedom. Marriage is for chumps. If someone stands in the way of true justice, you simply walk up behind them and stab them in the heart-R'as al Ghul.

My issue with your post is that it’s just negative, like so many other posts in this forum.

I don’t possess Polly-Annish views and I’m not here to chase rainbows and butterflies. I’m a realist. I can’t and will not attempt to speak for anyone else here, but this site is the last refuge for me to come and speak my mind and not be censored or worried about some precious cupcakes feEeeEEeElings.

Well, I personally don’t give a s~~~ what other men (or women) are doing,

But, you do. If you didn’t you wouldn’t be all hot ‘n bothered by my personal opinion. It’s always the individual who doesn’t have a cynical bone in their body, and says they “let everyone do what they want and don’t care” who are THE very first to get all up in arms if someone states their own opinion which might conflict with your positive, rainbow and butterfly perception of the world.

Quit worrying about other people and what makes them happy. Focus on yourself

Now you’ve taken it a bit further and are literally telling me what to do. I don’t tell these guys who make a pretentious show out of their yoga pants and matts NOT to do yoga; I simply stating my own (mocking) opinion.

I’m willing to hear you out if you’d like to keep trying to convince me to hate.

I’m not trying to convince you to do anything, let alone hate.

Now whose the one doing the “judging” (?).

Ok, you’re right. Guys that dress in Yoga pants is an issue that needs to be dealt with. What would you like me to do in order to make the situation better? I’m all ears.

Absolutely nothing.

Once again, you are assuming some fake, subservient attitude (just like when you “gave” me the last word). How gracious.

I’m not looking for a solution. I’m a cynic and enjoy sarcasm, it’s the bedrock of humor. This is what separates men from women – we enjoy ball-busting.

For example, I was having drinks with a friend and he wanted to buy me one and asked “what’ll you have?” I said – “whisky and diet”. He said “okay FATSO!”

LOL it was great. Much in the same way, I like to critique and comment on things I find ironic or just strange to me. I don’t want or need you to “fix” anything, that’s what women try and do. I don’t think I have ever even said this on this forum, but based on my limited interaction with you, I smell tuna.

Threads like this one make me scratch my head when I come here. Yoga is stength and flexibility training along with meditation. I’ve been doing it off and on for years. I’m in the best shape of my life. Yoga is extremely strenuous if you do it right.

I also eat mostly vegetables. If you can eat beef every day, congratulations. But when I do that, I get fat. Everyone’s body works a little differently.

I was lied to by society like all men are. That’s why we’re here. Your exercise routine and diet have nothing to do with masculinity, except when you don’t take care of yourself and turn into a fat slob. That definitely affects your masculinity.

Yoga was probably invented by a man. Pilates was.

It is simply my opinion. I just can’t see old school men (prior to feminism, back in the 50’s and such) doing this kind of stuff.

To each his own, but I just grow weary of people who parade around about it, and make a show out of this type of behavior in todays society.

Since you like ball-busting so much, let’s explore this more. The people I know who whine, bitch, and complain the most are females. Looks like your threads mostly consist of whining, bitching, and complaining. Interesting.

Is there a protocol on this forum for people calling others tuna simply because they disagree on something? My guess is no, which is fine. I just find this to be very sad copout, dude. We disagree on something, so I must be tuna. Get real. You want to accuse me of being tuna? I’ll call you out on it. You prove you’re a male and I’ll be happy to do the same. How’s that? There are very simple ways to accomplish this.

Awaiting your response.

Incorrect. You didn’t merely disagree with me. You played my psychologist by telling me I have “anger issues” and then proceeded to TELL me what to do.

Many people in this thread disagreed with me and I have zero problems with that; what I do have a problem with is your passive aggressive and back handed comments, which I made abundantly clear.

My mocking superficial people who put on a sanctimonious show out of their yoga or FAKE jog in front of me, isn’t whining or bitching. These people choose to make a charade out of it and throw it in everyone else’s faces.

To address your other point – I’m not sharing co$K picks with you. Not my thing.

Hardly anyone in the USA did it back then as far as I know. Pilates was invented by a German man in the early 20th century. Yoga is a lot older. I dont know the history and don’t care to look it up. This thread is like saying playing the flute or ballet is for f~~s. I guess I stopped giving a s~~~ about what people said was cool or not so long ago that this whole idea is alien to me. I play the flute btw. I also enjoy tearing things up with my 12 gauge. My old school male grandad died of a heart attack at 55. I intend to be playing flute and blasting away when I’m 90.

I get that. I get tired of people making a show of just about anything. I guess I don’t ever see anyone making a show with yoga where I live but it would annoy me if I did.

Look dude, you basically invited everyone to be your psychologist the second you created this thread. You started a thread for the sole purpose of bitching and whining that other men haven’t conformed to what you want them to do (or not do) on a forum for ‘Men Going Their Own Way’. You don’t see the irony in that?

So yeah, my opinion about your opinion is that you’re just being needlessly angry and should stop worrying about what other people do to try to impress you. I even gave you a reason – not giving a s~~~ feels way better. I’m not “telling you what to do”. It’s an opinion, and I still stand by that opinion.

And I really am done with this thread now, as it is just a vortex of back and forth that we’ll never get out of. I don’t like you and you don’t like me. I’m sure we’ll get over it.

Feel free to have the last word if you…..

Nevermind.

My problem with you isn’t that you disagree with my opinion; no. It’s that you are dispensing the very same sanctimonious BS attitude which I disagree with, namely –

“I accept EVERYONE’S behavior, *except* your opinion which disagrees with my opinion!”.

BS. I don’t like the $hit-show of ANY individual who attention-whores, and that was the purpose of my original post. Perhaps I didn’t make that clear enough initially, but I’ve expressly stated that several times now.

The fact that you think I need a “psychologist” or yet even further “invited EVERYONE” to be mine for stating my own opinions which conflict with yours speaks volumes. Again, MOST of the replies on this topic disagreed with me; yet the only person I take issue with is you, because of your caddy attitude.

ManBearPig wrote:

BS yet again.

“Stop caring what others do”.

Telling me you give zero fu$ks about anyone or what they do, then telling someone who has a viewpoint which is in conflict with yours that they have anger issues, and to not express their own views, is a contradiction in terms.

You can disagree with me all you want (as many others have) but don’t come on here with that sanctimonious, Polly-Annish attitude “can’t we all get along” BS.

No, not everyone in this world is going to get a long. And that is perfectly fine. What isn’t fine, is when people with perceptions and attitudes such as yourself tell others they can’t express dissenting views. That is precisely the cause of this liberal, fu$ked up, PC culture that has run rampant today.

If you didn’t “give a fu$k” then you would be perfectly fine with someone expressing an opposing opinion, and you expressing yours. But, you are not.

Apparently I need a psychologist if I disagree with you.
