Facebook and Twitter were alive with pushback Monday afternoon after a supposed "yoga pants ban" at Minnetonka High School.
Since then, people around the nation have taken notice.
The school district explained there was no "ban" on tight-fitting pants, instead a call for modesty. Here's the letter from the principal.

Sounds catchy to say the school is "banning yoga pants," but that's not the story. Rather, the school is asking girls to cover their butts if they wear tight leggings. Just sayin'.

What's all the fuss about? As a Minnetonka mom of 4 boys, I completely support Mr. Adney's call for modesty. Why is there such a "need" to put it all out there leaving nothing to the imagination? Grow up people!
