DW suggests I check out yoga. What do you make of her comment?

Anonymous
I'm a DH working to stay in reasonable shape through exercise and diet. DW suggested yoga, which she has tried, saying "There are a lot of attractive women there you might like." Caught me off guard. Do you read anything into this comment or is it just an aside?

It's just a way of motivating you to go to yoga; it also shows that your wife is secure with your relationship.

My wife knows what I like and will occasionally point it out on other women when she thinks I missed it (I never do). I love her for it; I like to look and she knows it, doesn't mean I'll cheat. Her pointing out attractive women to me isn't permission to do anything but look. I wouldn't read into your wife's statement any further.

But goddamn I do love yoga pants. Go to class!

Maybe she thinks you are more likely to go if there are lots of attractive women there with camel toe for you to look at.

This is exactly what I said to DH!

Why would you read anything into this beyond advice from your wife to work out?
Yoga is a gently yet very effective way of staying in shape, keeping excellent posture and relaxing mentally.

She is hoping that the attractive women can motivate you because obviously, she can't.

I'm not swift on picking up on subtle verbal cues -- that's why I asked. Like, maybe she was saying it was OK to strike up a relationship with a yoga classmate. But it seems clear now there was no hidden meaning.

Guys who are manly enough to do yoga are so hot. Go do yoga. Do not cheat on your wife.

I wonder about you DH. I'm secure in my marriage but I wouldn't make a comment like that. To me it would be insulting (You will only exercise if you get to look at half naked women.)

Anyway, Yoga is hard, so maybe she knows that and thinks its funny for you to go for the women and then have to do the workout.

I think it is an inappropriate remark.

Maybe she is insecure and was trying to manipulate you into saying how she is the only attractive woman you want.

Maybe she is cheating and trying to assuage her guilt by having you go and ogle other women. Maybe she wants you to have an affair to feel 'even'. Maybe if she knows when you are in yoga class - that gives her 'free' time to cheat.

It isn't normal for a married woman to tell her husband to go check out other hot women.

You couldn't possibly be any less fun...
All she is doing is being honest, she knows he would love to stretch out in a sea of black Lycra. If that's what it takes for him to drop his gunt then so be it.

Except most of the men aren't hot. They are chubby and bending it over...

That sounds like something I would say to sweeten the deal to get a guy friend to go to yoga with me. "It's a great workout, plus there are hot chicks in yoga pants." I can see myself saying that to a boyfriend. (especially since I'm one of those chicks looking hot in yoga pants.)

Obviously she wants a 3some and thinks you can pick up some "friends" in class. You put the "u" in DuH.

It is true! You will never see so many attractive women, and so few men, as at a yoga class. Plus there are usually mirrors on the walls so you can ogle them somewhat surreptitiously.
