Re: Should there be an age limit for wearing Jean shorts

I don't understand why there would be any difference because they're made out of denim.  What does that matter?  

 

I've seen older people in shorts and they look fine, IMO, but I don't get to decide for them, just like nobody else gets to decide for me what I wear.

No we aren't   We will never be.

 


This isn't the fashion police; it's the age police.  It doesn't stop with fashion.  They also want to tell you what makeup you should or shouldn't wear due to your age, and whether you should color your hair or wear it long or short, simply because of your age.

If we're talking about "Daisy Dukes" aka B@@ty Shorts then yes.  Anything else is okay.

People being judgmental look terrible no matter what they're wearing.

I say wear what ever you like as long as it looks good on you.  That can be relative but... just look in the mirror and you will know.

Re: Should there be an age limit for wearing Jean shorts

  I think everyone should wear what they feel comfortable with no matter their age. I've seen some young women look awful in shorts & I've seen some older women look great in them . 

  Everyone has their own comfort level. I don't want anyone telling me what I should wear. I wouldn't dare tell anyone else what to wear,period.

@gellen   It all depends on how you look -- legs, size, length of the shorts. Cellulite and blue veins are not attractive. Only you know how you want to present yourself.

Nothing wrong with wearing jean shorts in your 60's as long as they are not up to your rear. I have some about knee length.

As long as your comfortable who cares. When you live in a state like Arizona where it's 115 degrees I just happy people have something on to keep them from getting arrested.

I don't like denim shorts because they aren't comfortable for me but being older has no impact in my decision. So, rock on with them!
