Agreed that the key problem is that he is being forced to wear shorts (which is in contrast to most of us, who are "forced" not to wear shorts, at least not as much as we wish). I think the lack of opportunity of choice would create discontent and hard feeling.

But no matter he loves shorts or not, he would still be embarrassed. One of the hurdles of us, grown-up shorts wearers, is still the embarrassment. But for us, we would have enough mental strength to fight against the feeling gradually, why Lawrence is still developing his mental strength through his life experience. Also, the embarrassment is also a source of the excitement that we would experience during our shorts wearing, while wearing shorts are just normal stuff for Lawrence and he will not really find that exciting.

Wearing shorts at -10 C is tough. I have tried wearing athletic shorts for workout at -9 C during December in Seoul (Korea), it is still do-able. But of course, doing workout is different from simply walking, as simply walking and standing in the winter breeze would feel much colder. Also, Lawrence is wearing that all day long while I only wore that once for 2 hr max.
