Do you wear shorts in the hot weather? I do but only at home on the ranch where no one has to look at my old spindly legs.

I really don't like wearing shorts. I hate letting people look at my legs because I think they're fat and kind of ugly so I don't want people to see my legs and make comments or whatever. That bugs me. However I do wear shorts when I am at home. I don't care if my family sees my legs.

Pat, you savvy thing! At least in America, most women have problems with their body images. We're either too fat or too thing; to tall or too short, etc. Like you, I'll wear them at home if I'm sure nobody will see me, but these legs will NOT go public!

Hi pat! I do wear shorts too! But, I usely will only wear that at home or around the neighborhood! I don't mind going to the stores in the area that I live in, but if I have to go out further or get on a bus then I will wear capri pants! I just think that at my age it just isn't appropriate for me to be wearing shorts anymore besides around my home or near it!

I have one pair that I love, theyare long shorts that go all the way to my knees. I have never really liked wearing shorts because I have just always been shy about showing so much leg. When I was in High school I was thin and so it was hard to find shorts that were long enough. Now I have gained weight and I just do not want to show off that much so I only wear my shorts when I know I will not be doing much away from home.

I do not because my legs are so ugly! Each of my children left me with horrible varicose veins in my legs. They are huge and ugly. since they are not painful, I have not have them removed since that is an expensive operation! Even if I tan they look like terribly weird bruises. People always ask what happened and all so I choose to not wear shorts! Sometimes when I bike I do wear shorts because they are s much easier to get around in.

I wear shorts all the time. I dont look the greatest in them but my comfort is so much more important to me then the way people think I look in them. When I feel good I feel like I look good so it all works out in the end. I think I will go put on a pair right now. I wear them all winter too.
