Re: Do you like these shorts?

My 60 year old 20-1/2" thighs do not look the same as they did when I was in my 20's.  I could have worn them back then....but no, too goody two shoes I guess.

Those shorts cover more than some leggings that I have seen adult women wear that are pushed into every nook and cranny.

 

I wouldn't  wear the leggings or the shorts, but IMO the shorts are more modest.

No. I would not even wear those when I was younger. Nothing like paying money for something that needs to go in the garbage???

Ahh...Youth is right!   I think these are ridiculous, but being a teen in the 60s I wore suede hot pants, a genuine rabbit mini skirt and Peter Max tights to name just a few of the crazy clothes of that error, so who am I to judge!  If these shorts are the worst of it, you'd be blessed.  It's just a phase that passes.


@Biftu wow, I wish you could post a picture of that! 


Me too!   Wish I had a picture.

Maybe if I was 14 years old.  That is totally ridiculous just like some of the torn up full length jeans.

Re: Do you like these shorts?

The model here seems to have very muscular thighs so she fills out the strings quite nicely, but no, I don't really care for them.

 

I especially dislike when a zipper kinda pokes out at the top and doesn't lie flat - means the pants/shorts are too small.  I wonder what the rear view looks like?  Woman Embarassed

I know what ya mean.  When I was younger I was so conservative in my clothing.  I guess it was my upbringing.  A real square but it kept me out of trouble.

What name do you usually post under? That comment is rather disturbing and I'm finding most of what you're saying 'inCITEful'

I see short short shorts on young girls a lot now.  Hey, they are kids.  It's not the worst thing they could do and being young, they don't think like we do.

I still wear short shorts, but I don't like them that ripped. Mine are usually 3 1/2".  My other ones are 5" ones.  I never wear Bermudas.  Too long on me & too close to the knee. . Most of mine are denim & yes I still buy them from Rag & Bone, Frame, AG, etc.  I'm careful how they fit around the the thighs.  I have slim thighs and don't like them "baggy"  One reason I don't buy any shorts from QVC
