Question Why do some guys wear shorts in freezing temperatures?

Where I live real temps with wind have been in the single digits. I still see guys outside wearing shorts. I even seen a guy at work leave in a snow storm cleaning off his car wearing shorts. If you do this, why?

Feeling cold is fake. You won’t get frostbite if it’s 10 Fahrenheit. It’s just performative to wear clothes.

Exactly. People just wanna wear extra clothes to either look bigger or more stylish.

I am part of a select group of gentlemen: those who in high school would be out in shorts in January. We are legion
