Who cares how your legs look like? Do you also always cover your arms because you don’t like people seeing them?
Long sleeves ftw
Never. I don’t care what people believe in their religion but I think nothing is stupider than religions that make you wear clothes that cover you all over.
I saw a little Muslim girl diving into a pool one day in a heavy plaid shirt and a hijab, and I just couldn’t believe how stupid that is. You’re like 8, what’s sexual about you?
The Prophet Muhammad married an 8-year-old. That kind of puts it into perspective.
Well yes, but in the modern day world I think a little kid should be able to play in the pool with other kids unencumbered. I actually hate hijabs and think they’re oppressive AF.
I agree, and I think they should have been free to do what they wanted back then too.
I also wear Tevas( sandals) ! Of course I also haven’t had a date in years…
Because you’re happily married, right?
Right???
Holy crap going through that section in (EDIT: Pokémon) Red was more or less hell
I only really hate shorts because my legs are always bruised. It reminds me of how clumsy I am.
I don’t know why but bruised knees are universally loved. Okay maybe I know and the reasons are disgusting. Actually forget that I said anything.
Same. But it’s hot as fuck outside so I don’t feel like I got a choice
I have no idea why but for many years I felt this way too. Then it just went away and I have no idea why I would be embarrassed about my legs. Shorts are great!
Did you perhaps become a father?
Does becoming a father make you less body conscious?
Sometimes…
Did you get a job as a postman?
Haha, nope, not this one too.
TBH I think I just became less self conscious and more confident about my body when I started exercising.
i fucking love shorts because i can show off my meteoric thunder thighs to the world and slay the day

Idc legs are hot 🦵🤤🥵
the truth
This is such a trans tweet lol
I feel that way as a cis guy. :(
It’s not unheard of among cis men too, my dad was always struggling to bulk up his legs because he thought they looked too skinny. Trans people just tend to be extra vulnerable to feeling pressure about their bodies, both for dysphoria reasons and societal reasons.
There’s body dysmorphia too, which affects cisgender people. In my case it would be more the body hair I guess. And unfortunately shorts on men is also still kinda stigmatized, which is of course perceived worse for people who already struggle with their own body or have anxiety issues.
I think this applies to almost everybody.
Maybe. It doesn’t apply to me. I love shorts, I love my legs.
…I hate when people only look at clothes for fashion and their appearance. Clothes sound be more functional then anything.
I’ve seen people try to say that shorts are “unprofessional” but my counter is being a sweaty mess is worse. If it isn’t cold enough to warrant pants, in wearing shorts!
Yes. The idea of what’s professional needs to adapt to our changed climate. If I dressed like that in the summer heat I’ma pass out.
Ugh this is what I have to deal with. I have to wear slacks when I go to work and it’s awful right now in this hot weather.
Hi! I like shorts! They’re comfy and easy to wear!
Time for a battle!
I’m baffled how much people care about other people’s clothing. It’s childish. How do shorts or pants have anything to do with professionalism?
Why do we design other buildings than concrete cubes? Why do we plant trees on the side of the road? Why do we put paintings in our hallways? Why do we paint our walls anything other than hospital grey? Why do websites have CSS? Why do we gift each other flowers?
Esthetics, self-expression, culture. Fashion is the most personal form of self-expression, it should not be a surprise that people care about it so much.
I don’t care if you wear socks and sandals, you don’t have an obligation to partake in cultural norms, but going all the way around to “fashion is stupid and clothes are just there for wind protection” is nihilistic beyond usefulness.
Clothes have function over style. If you pick style over function, you’re in for a bad time.
They still build buildings with a strong foundation regardless of how pretty it looks…function Over style still wins.
Trees provide protection from sun. Function over style.
I agree but for me shorts are bad because they reveal more of “me”. They also make my shoes look even bigger if my pants aren’t going over them.
In the last four years I’ve worn long trousers maybe twice, and both times were for funerals.
You don’t wear shorts because legs, I don’t wear shorts for mosquito defense. We are not the same LMAO
I am a mosquito banquet actually. There’s always a bite on the back of my knee even if I wear pants.
You clearly have not lived with 32°C
It’s going to be 34 here this week. I’ll probably be at home in my underwear.
You wear underwear at home?
when it’s anything above +25, i stay at home naked with my ac on. if i have to go somewhere, linen shorts and t. and i still sweat like a pig.
You’re at home. Who cares. Be comfortable
It could be 40 and I wouldn’t even consider purchasing shorts.
I come from the north; anything above 20° and I graduate to the shorter shorts.
Anything above 8° is shorts weather unless you’re hiking. Going by your instance though, I guess hiking isn’t an option for you.
I like shorts.
They’re comfy and easy to wear.
I’m actually wearing a skort.
I want someone to make a comic strip of a skort-wearing skwerl that goes to skool.
I also want that. Wish I could draw.
You can!
I used to laugh at that little boy who said shorts are comfy and easy to wear, but by God was he right about it.
Top percentage right here
!
battle music ensues
I often would rather be cold in shorts than uncomfortable in pants
Loose comfy sweatpants are the exception to this, and work from home has spoiled regular pants for me
Neovictorianism in the time of onlyfans is exactly what I was expecting in 2024
Neo victioroanism has been around for a while. Fainting couch feminism as is called.

You’re getting downvoted, but the guys wearing basketball shorts everywhere have tons of kids.
You cant just walk around throwing arguments like that without citing sources
