No they mean a certain type of shorts that end above the knees. Not the shorts that are basically three quarters pants. The shorter they were the gayer you’d be.
Ohh, I distinctly remember that showing your knees was gay. But not as gay as bending over to pick up a pencil without bending your knees for it. It meant you wanted it up the ass then and there, there was no other conceivable reason.
The not gay ones are hella comfortable looking. Not sure about the gay ones, I’ve never really been into that type, I prefer my shorts really loose and the pockets big enough to hold 2 liter bottles
Just people shouting invectives at you as they drove past, is that still a thing? I remembered it happening quite a bit back then, and it would ruin my day each time.
Wait, shorts were gay? Does that include cargo shorts? Cuz there were a lot of cargo shorts at the time.
Source: used to wear cargo shorts back then. I still do, but I used to too.
the shorts part makes no sense. everyone wears shorts

Haha I learned the habit of properly lifting and not breaking your back this way. Looks like school taught me something practical after all.
unless you’re wearing running shorts in which case the length of the shorts is inversely related to how good/fast of a runner you are.
Thank god I grew up in Europe. I would’ve been gay as fuck in America.
European or Gay?
I appreciate your period-appropriate example with TJ Ford.
Best part is that the “not gay” shorts look like a skirt. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Oh, for sure. Skirts are also really comfy. Just thought it was funny given the context.
It was only if they fell above the knees that made you gay. If they fell below the knee or were basketball shorts, you were fine.
They are comfy and easy to wear!
Well the term originated in Britain where they weren’t that popular at the time, and like the post says it was only if you wore short too much.
I can remember getting shouted at from a moving car for wearing shorts circa 2006, it was a thing.

Can’t even wear my chartreuse short-shorts with JUICY printed on the butt without people thinking I’m gay
That’s cause you need a hot pink button up with “Badman” emblazoned on the back to truly state your masculine dominance to the world.
A friend’s boyfriend has a hot pink and glittery t-shirt that says “Alpha Male” on it, which I find hilarious
Oh I need it for my band.
