Wink Re: Upc stance on Men's "shorts"

This is one of those commonsense things____________

Hot lazy days of summer, outdoors, casual activities....it seems logical.


Consider the activity, then the age and size (sorry...it does matter) of the individual.

Modesty does apply ....the garment should properly cover you. Knee length shorts if in public. No daisy dukes .

Men that wear daisy dukes, would've been attracted to Bow and Luke, instead of Daisy Duke.
Yuk.

someone needs to tell this to the females here in Montana~ Muffin tops, jeans and shorts like 5 sizes to small....and no pride in the way they present themselves to the world at all! Some of them look like a beach ball trying to squeeze into spandex.......it don't hide nothing~ The visual is most always nauseating to say the least! I am in my 40's and stand only 5 feet tall and weigh 104 pounds, small and petite....but I have never presented myself in any other way outside of descent and modest. First impressions do count and they do make a difference!
