Subject: Shorts shorts?

Written By: boy4e on 05/22/10 at 10:06 am

Recently I hear that short shorts (the athletic ones, that were cool in the 80's) may comeback for men. They're already popular for women. What do you think? As a male I prefer to wear short shorts to baggier/longer ones, because I don't look good at them. I would either wear short shorts or no shorts at all. But it sucks wearing jeans in the summertime when it's too hot, don't you think. Still, I have no other option, since short shorts are considered ugly and not trendy for guys. Yet, I'm still young and have great, muscular legs, I'm not a fat, 50-year-old guy. What if I want to show more of my legs to ladies? Today's society sucks more than the 80's one.

I have a strong aversion to men in shorts in public.  Old fashioned that way.  Shorts are for boys, long pants are for men.

Do you feel the same about women dressed like sluts? I'm only 21 so I don't think that's old at all.
So you think I should give up shorts at all? Because I wont wear those long ones, I don't look good at them.
I prefer long pants.

Women dressed as sluts... no problem as long as they have the goods to back up the look.

Wear what you feel comfortable in.  I was just saying that, in my opinion, men look better in long pants.  I don't know how you end up equating men in shorts to women dressed like "sluts"

I think you might be referring to a fad about 20 years earlier.  I think it was the Royal Teens who had a huge hit with "Short Shorts" in about 1960!

But I think khakis and long shorts are ugly, especially on my legs so I'll continue wearing only long pant during the summer since shorts are not in.

Subject: Re: Shorts shorts?

Written By: boy4e on 05/23/10 at 7:14 am

It's just that I don't like wearing long pants with a T-shirt or shirt with short sleeves. I don't know why. When I'm wearing long pants I feel like I need a jacket or something over my T-shirt. I get the feeling that my arms need to be covered like my legs are.

If short pants suck, I don't get it why most men don't stick to long pants even in the summer instead of wearing shorts at all? I don't think in Europe and the USA summers are that hot really. Long shorts look just as ugly on most men as short ones. Generally shorts of all lengths are ugly on men and beautiful on most women. I like girls dressed as sluts and/or wearing short shorts, as long as they are not too skinny or overweight:

I live in Chicago.  It is 10:30 in the morning, and it's already 80°F.  It is supposed to top out at 90°F today.  Technically, it is not even summer yet.

Then don't actively seek out pictures like that.  Duh.

There was a kid at the high school I work at wearing super tight, super short rolled up cut offs the other day.  In white.  So either they are coming back, or he was doing his best George Michael impersonation.
