Question

How can I find shorts that are not slutty?

Community Answer

You can make your own shorts, but some places to buy shorts are Forever 21, Urban Outfitters, and Hollister. A rule of thumb to follow is: look in the mirror at your butt, can you see your cheeks? If yes, then don't buy them. If no, you should be fine.

Question

I love to wear really short jean shorts, what is a recommend shirt that will make it seem more flattering?

Community Answer

Crop tops, because they don't cover the shorts up so you don't look like you aren't wearing pants. You could also find a shirt that highlights your waist. Make sure the shorts are not the same color as the shirt.

Question

Why do people wear short shorts?

Community Answer

It is because of personal preference. Short shorts are known as hot pants and became popular in the 1970s. They're just one way to look good and show off one's physique.

Question

How can I wear short shorts and not have my underwear showing?

Community Answer

Smaller underwear would work, such as thongs. They won’t show under your short shorts. Avoid boy shorts or full briefs, as these would likely show under short shorts.
