Men in shorts

Bachus
By Bachus

OK or not OK for men to wear shorts in public--malls, corniche, etc.?

I know there is no law against it, I am just asking for peoples' OPINIONS please.

Wouldn't work.. Women always want to get into the "sack" with men ..

By anonymous• 9 May 2011 11:14

No. I suggest men only wear shapeless black sacks that cover them from head to toe with only slits for the eyes. That would be modest. In fact, even better, no holes for the eyes, eyes are too sexy.

What about men in tights? Now tights cover all the legs is that acceptable?

Yes, you make a valid point. Thanks for the advice. If more people had this foresight, there would be less rapes .....

By the way.. anyone want to buy a pair of designer yellow Speedos ?

Well you should stop being a dirty man Brit and stop instilling dirty thoughts in people. You are advertising that you want to be raped when you wear shorts.

This is EXACTLY the issue I have been facing...

Last week , I was out in my yellow Speedos and got accosted by a couple of women :O)

I think it is immodest for men to wear shorts and that men wearing shorts contributes to rape.

Did I mention that I find men with hairs growing out of there nose offensive as well. There is no law against it, but I think it is gross. Authorities need to gentley remind men who do not pluck, that this is not acceptable.

By timebandit• 9 May 2011 08:05

Yeah... and speedos at the pool. Unless your are an Olympic swimmer, please don't wear them. Seriously if you own them, and are not a real swimmer, throw them out now! They make you look stupid, they make me feel sick, and..... oh and something else I can't think of right now. Anyway... cast out those speedos and get some decent swimming shorts. Just don't wear the swimming shorts in a mall though, or you will be chased by..... errrr.... I don't know... Anyway, so just don't do it.... RIGHT!!!

Frenchieman, Permit me to point out that,in this part of the world, shiny skinned men[ugh!(] are considered to be pansies to put it lightly.So what ever you admit to NEVER say you wax or shave beyond your face to any straight ladies,.....you will see them evaporating quicker than the

Shorts to the knee are acceptable. Short shorts, or Lynford Christie lunch boxes are not

Yes I think wearing shorts is way for gays to find other gays. The malls are cool in climate, so no need to dress so lightly except for fashion.

I really don't want to see Rizks's hairy legs either. If you must wear shorts, please shave or wax.

I wear shorts that are just at the knee, i wouldn't wear gym shorts tho.

Shorts in public are another example of declining modesty and morality in Qatar. I even see females wearing sometimes at the shopping mall! This would not be the case ten years ago. Authorities need to gentley remind men who wear such immodest clothing that this is not acceptable.
