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
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
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.
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.
Neovictorianism in the time of onlyfans is exactly what I was expecting in 2024
Haven’t shaved my legs since 2019 and it’s the best. I only shave my pits at this point because my sweat smells worse with hair there. Everything else is free, as nature intended.
Opposite here. Used to never shave. Shaved and the smoothness is intoxicating. It’s a pain to do tho.
A… are you all women? Or are men like supposed to shave their legs too and somebody forgot to tell me?
No one is supposed to do anything.
Were hurling through space on the crust of a molten core rock, orbiting an angry fusion reactor.
Do whatever, star stuff
Exactly!
I’m a woman, but can’t speak for anyone else here. Also, you do realize that anyone can shave as little or as much as they want regardless of gender, right?
Of course, my comment was mostly intended humorously.
At the same time, social norms and customs do exist and while anyone is free to ignore them, I was also curious if it had become common for men to shave their legs when wearing shorts.
I’m glad the social norms say I don’t have to shave anything because when it grows back, it drives me insane for about 2 weeks.
Let me get you another copy of that memo, mmmkay?
Taking the time to do it is part of why I stopped. I have better shit to do than worry about body hair that’s there for a reason lol.
Well, I suppose the shorts weren’t going to shave themselves.
Who cares how your legs look like? Do you also always cover your arms because you don’t like people seeing them?
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.
Long sleeves ftw
My comfort clothes are jeans. I wear them year round in Houston Texas. I’m also pale as a ghost.
Jean shorts exist.
I’m not much of a jorts man
Whatever you do, don’t spill blood on your jorts
Now I’m going to have BDG’s Old Bay jingle in my head all day because that’s how my brain works. Thanks?
May our legs provide light and guidance to those lost in the night.

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.
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
You wear underwear at home?
My woofy gets cold otherwise…
When it’s really hot and humid (like this week), boxer briefs keep my balls from sticking to my legs.
It could be 40 and I wouldn’t even consider purchasing shorts.
You must enjoy some schweddy balls
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 usually say 10° but the threshold often strays a bit lower. Yeah, not much hiking to be done around here, ha, actually I’ve just been travelling somewhere a bit further south and I looked out the window and said “hills! I remember these!”
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
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…
Not even close!
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.
This is how it happened for me too. I started lifting and now comfortably wear shorts short enough to show some thigh lol

In the last four years I’ve worn long trousers maybe twice, and both times were for funerals.
