Here's my take on women and shorts, especially for those over 40-45 who like to wear pleated khaki cuffed shorts in summer and to the beaches from Rhode Island to Key West and elsewhere.
Do yourselves a favour and eschew the gym teacher in favour of "walking shorts", aka 'Bermuda shorts".
They're straight-leg short that hits at the top of the knee.For the cleanest, longest leg line possible, choose the un-cuffed versions. Before you start experimenting with patterns, get yourself some nice solids, perhaps black, navy or blue if you have really pale skin. Make sure they don't have pleats! Nobody likes a woman with a puffy crotch.
Same for wearing pants that are too tight in the thigh, too loose in the waist, and too high in the rise, as nubbins form and she'll end up with nubbins in the crotch of her pants. Nobody will ever tell a woman she has great style if it appears that she has a wiener...women don't need pants with a 'junk in the front look because the pants bunch up in the crotch. Women need to either go up a size or look for pants that have a looser cut on the leg. If they go up a size to accommodate their thighs and the pants are then too big in the waist, you have to have them taken in if you don't know how to sew...or, hey, it's summer, don't wear anything but perhaps a simple but stylish loincloth with sequins...laugh Most males like to crotch watch as do women on men...wine grin

So far it looks like the ladies between 18-40 will look the other way when I take a walk on the beach however I will be popular with the ladies above 40 :)

Based on the outcome of the vote I will not throw away my boardshorts. However I have received my shorter red Frank Dandy shorts and I like them and will wear them this summer.
