Do you think Yoga is gay for men?

Question

I've heard lots of good benefits for it like improving your memory and releasing stress. But the yoga classes at my local gym is mostly all women. Do you think yoga is gay for men? If so what about Tai Chi.. etc..?

Answer 1

Ok. Answering as a straight guy, I have taken Yoga classes at the gym. True 90% of the class were women. What's Wrong with that? You are getting into great shape and your meeting women who can do the Lotus pose. I don't see anything gay with that. Stick with the yoga.

Answer 3

Listen to Chieroman. I would add that flexibility is the major problem for senior citizens and the earlier you start with yoga, the better.

You don't want to just reach old age. You want to be able to do what young people do when you get there. I'm talking about great sex.

By the way, if there are more women in yoga classes, did it ever occur to you that taking yoga might be the best way to pick up women? If I were a guy, I'd be signing up for those classes lickety split.

Answer 4

You must be young.. I do yoga and tai chi,...but until I was in my early 50's.. I was strictly weights and some cardio.. Now.. it's more cardio, stretching and weight training 5 days a week.. Most of the guys I know.. who did the same thing are in the same boat.. I don't think an exercise program, regardless of what it is.. has anything to do with someone's sexual orientation. There are lot's of gay bodybuilders too. Who gives a s.....

Answer 5

Yoga has nothing to do with sexual orientation. If there are more women than men in the class at your gym, it's probably because the girls are relatively more concerned about flexibility and less worried about strength and "getting big" than the guys.

FWIW, the US military--still not the world's most gay-friendly institution--encourages yoga along with other forms of strength and flexibility training.

Answer 6

Doing Yoga is not what makes you gay . It's how you think . Being your not gay I would think that being in a room with a bunch of women would open some doors for you . Most guys would think your lucky . If you don't like being around women maybe there is a problem here . Have a nice session at your next yoga class .

Answer 7

You need a major attitude adjustment. What exactly has 'gay' got to do with it? You either are gay or you aren't and contrary to the senseless programs you watch on TV, being gay doesn't mean mincing around with a clutch purse and a pink sweater.

Most gay men are very masculine, and are attracted to masculine men. Don't believe all the stereotypes you see on late night comedy - you probably already know several very masculine gay men; you just don't KNOW they are gay.

So no - an ancient and very healthy exercise regime like Yoga is not "gay".

Answer 8

Yoga is definitely for anybody who are interested meditation & release of stress. in fact, for any activities with good benefits do not target particular sexual orientation! if you sign up for yoga or tai chi, they would definitely ask whether you're gay or not!!

Answer 9

Absolutely not! Maybe a lot of gay men do yoga for health benefits and relaxation but practicing yoga doesn't mean you are gay. What's the big deal anyway with gayness?

Answer 10

Not at all! Yoga is for everyone and I never thought men felt excluded. Yoga is a great stress reliever and very beneficial as it increases flexibility and improves concentration. If you are interested in Yoga then you should definitely enroll in a class. I love yoga and found that it helped me deal with stress and kept me limber and in shape. Go for it, you'll love what it does to your body. It honestly made my body talk, I would get full body rushes when I did certain positions such as shoulder stands. It also improves your sex life!!!!!!!!!!
