Absolutely not ghey. Coming from a ballet background, yoga is definitely one of the most difficult workouts there is if executed correctly.
Btw, ballet for a guy is not gay either.

My GF studied ballet for quite a while. She says almost all male ballet dancers are straight and have as many women as they want.

Yoga is a legit workout. An ex was an instructor and I used to kid on yoga until I tried it. I've now adapted the poses into a more masculine strength building routine.
Hold poses longer, use dumbbells, and no arse up in the air stuff, and plenty of push ups instead of rest poses.

Your girlfriend is correct. Case in point , Mikhail Baryshnikov,
who was extremely successful with women, including Jessica Lange.
A lot of ballet partners (male/female) are sig others or have hooked up just like cheerleading partners. It's kind of inevitable. 
I guess male ballet dancers get the ghey rap because of the tights and all, but they have to be über strong to lift females over their heads gracefully.
The ones I've danced with have been extreme horn dogs, but nice.
Watch out for your gf!
Jk (kinda)

I've done the P90X yoga video several times. That shite isn't easy. And it's actually not a bad workout, either, especially on a day off.

I do the P90x yoga twice a week. It is an incredible workout. 92 minutes is long but the complete workout rocks.
Ashtanga & Iyengar styles I think. I crank up the heat in my workout room and there's not a dry spot on me half way through the workout.
The yoga I do is a beast.

I gave it a shot when I was on this fitness challenge trying to get down to 10% bodyfat. I had no idea what to expect but when I walked in it was 10 hot women, 3-4 older ladies and me. I went for about 2 weeks and the stats were pretty much the same.
Definitely not ghey.
