Shorts! They’re Like Small, Shitty Pants, That Allow Bugs™ To Feast On Your Leg-Meats.
One of the nice things about Canada is that it’s almost always cold enough that I can get away with leggings without overheating. I own a couple pairs of shorts, but pretty much only wear them for exercise and when travelling to warmer climes.
(Mind you, bugs routinely bite through my leggings, so I’m not sure shorts would actually make things much worse on *that* front. But I own mosquito-net pants now, so that’s a thing when necessary.)
I don’t get people who actively like shorts: clothes are (if done right) comfy, why do you not want to be covered in them? If temperature weren’t a concern, I would wear turtlenecks and hoodies and sweatpants, like, all the time. I feel more confident and better able to handle stuff in long sleeves: I think it might be similar principles to weighted blankets.
