A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

I can wear a dress to work and nobody criticizes me. I’d be really sad if I had to wear pants all the time, they’re just not as comfortable. Let’s normalize pretty dresses for dudes!

kil

I know a couple people who wear kilts (I think one introduced it to the other).

I know from wearing towels and robes that I would enjoy a kilt. Pants are great but they are less comfortable in the heat of the summer.

I don't really care for shorts since then I have to worry about matching socks.

Why would matching socks be an issue with shorts but not kilts? Also, have you considered wearing sandals or just buy a dozen of identical pairs of socks?

Lol because my dumbass didn't add up that a kilt also exposes my mismatched socks.

Problem is I have a wool sock interest, so they're so expensive. My next batch of socks will be fruit of the loom 12pack though. I actually dumped all my socks out yesterday to take inventory.

I wear sandles but I find that I need to clean them all the time so they don't smell like feet.
