Who likes short shorts?

I wear men's shorts

because they fit better
and have more pocket space

The problem with women's shorts that are allegedly "my size" is that anything with the right waist is too tight around the thigh and doesn't even reach my knees, and anything long enough would fit my extremely overweight boyfriend's waist better than mine.

Men's shorts, however, fit fantastically and actually have enough pocket space for things like, say, MY HANDS. I'm convinced that pockets on women's shorts are only there for show. The fact that some shorts have FAKE POCKETS only makes me more right.
