I also like to wear short trousers. I recently made a 300 mile train trip in shorts with an inside leg of 6" I'd have felt vulnerable in short trousers less than that,but I did make a similar length train journey in 1987 wearing shorts with an inside leg of 2" Felt everyone from Stafford to London was staring at my bare thighs!

@66greyshorts Kudos on you 66greyshorts .You arre probably a teen who did'nt like being put in short trousers up to 16 year old or older and came to be pleased with wearing them as an adult.If you browse throgh my posts you will see that such was also my case.. More than seventy years ago. I was reluctantly still kept in very tiny short trousers in my late teens but some years later,as a college student, I was delighted to put back my denim and corduroy short shorts as the weather allowed it And as an adult, I went on to wear them as a default spring and summer dress. I woud be interested in giving you more details about this adventure of short trousers in my life.

I respect your parents for dealing with the police trouble their own way. If all boys wore short trousers until at least 14 the world would a better place. Wearing long trousers from age 10 must of encouraged bad attitude. You talk about going back into short trousers at 13 as intense embarrassment but really the only embarrassment was getting into trouble with the police.

I like to think I would deal with the situation the way your parents did. However in reality a boy under my charge would already be wearing short trousers long before he misbehaved.

n the days when "family planning" was far more difficult than it is now.

If this refers to the person who posted the title story then I think you are being unnecessarily charitable to those who at that time would complain about being unwilling parents. Condoms have been easily available for considerably longer than he has been alive and the pill was available on the NHS from 1961.

@ninalanyon A good point, but I am not sure in which country his family lived at the time so contraception might have been much harder to obtain.

@ArishMell I was raised in Saskatchewan Canada in a french-speaking and catholic family and I suppose that my parents never used the anticonceptional pill which dididn't exist at that time, I learned that the only method authorized by the Church to birth contol was the Ogino-Knauss method known as the thermometer method.
