It's nice to see ladies fashion that isn't strictly limited to skank.

I had to google that...

...so... they're basically men's length shorts sized for women.

Whatever... why the hate?

this is probably what poopy's annoyed about.

Obsessing over this is a meaningless as a font nazi who gets worked up over comic sans.

I lived through the 1970's with the short dude shorts - and then we went to cargo shorts.

Now the ladies started to wear the 1970's hot pants shorts and I pray daily the guys never catch up and go back to the 1970's short "nut hanging out" shorts.

It's summer. There are supposed to be hot college girls who are staying at rich daddy's lake house strolling up and down the street in bikini tops and short shorts. Instead...Mom Jorts? Really? EX:

Scarlett Johansson? berkeleying seriously?

In reply to Datsun310Guy: From the perspective of building a strong society, this may be the most important thing ever posted on this board.

As for the "mom shorts", I'm really ok with it as long as they don't go full on cargo shorts. If my wife had to look through 16 cargo short pockets in addition to her purse for car keys, it would take her an hour just to get the car started.

TBH, I fail to see what you're complaining about. Still looks good to me.

The shorts I posted the link to are what my (ex) g/f would want to wear. She has some childhood scars that keep her from wearing anything as short as you posted.

Not sure- do you want the shorts with hair hanging out the top, bottom or both?

Those just look 70's waist height to me. Now if we could just get women to leave the cast iron kevlar reinforced breast shelves at home, I'd be happy.

I've seen them and don't have a problem with most of them, but they don't look very good on women with large, high, round hips.

It accentuates them and not in a good way.

Completely agree. Might be a reflection of our ages though.

So they want us to think their ass is halfway up their back. Good to know.

But if we don't wear the cast-iron reinforced boulder holders, then our boobs end up down at our waist by the time we're 40.

I actually like the olive/brown shorts with the cuffs, that outfit reminds me of Laura Croft without the unrealistic boobage. But then, I'm not an old guy lookin' for free cheeks to ogle. YMMV

What is this, the 70's (woman have hair on their bodies)? The only fashion that is allowed to make a comeback is big hair from youse old timers era. THAT'S IT!

Old. Young. No dude likes halfway-up-the-back non ass-flattering, ass-pancake-making shorts. No dude. No matter how much he tries to convince you he does.

Least then you can tuck them into your shorts to keep em from bouncing around.

I'm with Poopy, nobody likes a pancake ass.

Yes, us women did a poll and we said, "What can we wear that will piss men off?" and mom shorts won.

I'm confused by your concern. Is this a bad thing? All the wrong people wear spandex, so I'm all for the shorts.

No shorts? What are they wearing around PoopLand?

That's why I wear what I want and don't give a damn what any dude thinks about my ass.
