View Full Version : Men in shorts
How many grown men wear shorts this hot weather? is it nice to see men who are over a certain age showing their legs, students , Fathers, Grandfathers even men as old as 80s walking round town with varicose veins and bandy legs.
Is it politically correct? did we aught to have a local by-law prohibiting men showing their legs who are over the hill? or would that be an infringement of their human rights?
Are not all men entitled to keep cool when the sun shines?and would you make fun of one who decides to and will put two fingers at anyone who laughs at them.
Surely one does not need to have perfect legs to show them in public and they are not exhibitionists, they are just trying to be comfortable in the sunshine and fresh air.
We should start a campaign for the right to wear shorts in public at any time, just like the naturists are calling for the right to go naked in public
places, as I am led to understand they can in the public parks in Germany.
steelblade 02-06-2003, 14:20 Everyone should wear whatever they want.
The only thing I will say on the matter is if you are a man who is going to wear shorts, invest in some trainer socks, shorts with socks pulled up is not attractive! :lol:
Moon Maiden 02-06-2003, 14:32 I agree with Steel blade.... and in addition to his Fashion advice, may I offer my own??
When purchasing shorts or digging them out of your wardrobe, would you kindly conduct a cleavage test??
Nothing more horrible than walking along and seeing 4 inch of hairy bum cleavage. :shock:

Agreed. I'd never wear NO sock, cos I like my feet not to smell. I would never wear big sock. Trainer socks are a must! If I only had big socks, I'd roll them over to make them the size of trainer socks!
Sandals and socks are also a strict NO NO! The only time I wear no socks is if I wear sandals!

Haha so true! My Mum and I always laugh at the fashion disasters that do this! It looks so daft!
I'm not too bothered about shorts, as long as you're not showing off bandy legs, as Halevan put it hehe :lol:
One thing I don't like is men who take it upon themselves to walk around bare chested in the sun. They can do that on their gardens, on the beach at the coast, anywhere but not on the high street in town, etc! That really annoys me! :shock:

You're just jealous cos you'd be arrested if you did the same down the high street :wink:
*Twinkle* 02-06-2003, 14:53 You're just jealous cos you'd be arrested if you did the same down the high street
lol I wouldn't want to go around like that! I prefer to leave some things to the imagination! :lol:
Moon Maiden 02-06-2003, 14:56 You're just jealous cos you'd be arrested if you did the same down the high street
You have to admit though it would look a tad more attractive considering some fellas who walse round???

Good point. Some sites should remain covered in the general public! Eeeewwwww
But while we are on the the subject there are some women who are 'just as large as beer bellied men' that shouldn't wear certain garments in general public. i won't go any further on that, but I'm sure you know where I'm coming from!
Moon Maiden 02-06-2003, 15:37 Yes I do, I was particularly annoyed at the trend in Barnsley for large women to wear black lycra leggins :shock:

it all begs the question: Do womens breasts get bigger in the summer ;)

Seen a few woman walking around like this.
:lol:
PS why don't woman shave if they have facial hair eg on top the lip or chin?
Phanerothyme 02-06-2003, 16:07 Halevan, We men should be free to wear what we like, shorts included. But I concur with the general theme that Shorts + Socks = Fashion Crime

Apologies in advance to anybody looking down at there feet now and noticing that they have desert dockers on with socks.
Take them off now, liberate your feet.
Oh I had a good chuckle while reading some of these posts. :lol: I agree about the socks. They really are a no no with shorts as are shoes. It has to be sandals or trainers Hal.
As for size, well in this case yes it does matter. Nothing looks worse than somebody on the large size squeezing themselves into something several sizes too small. Just make sure you have a size big enough.
Otherwise anybody should be able to wear shorts so long as they follow the rules.

Picking up on what was said earlier - I cannot abide to see blokes walking around barechested as soon as the sun comes out. It just looks ridiculous to me :roll:
my man wears shorts in any weather only to go out jogging round cannal etc.
