Right. Gay ones.


Keep thinking that. I don't think many men enjoy having frumpy wives and most everyone looks frumpy in capris. I wouldn't be surprised if the men married to these frumpy women were cheating.




You are just too funny! Men are cheating because their wives wear capris! I love you because you crack me up. Anything to win an argument. But seriously, straight men do NOT care about the length of your pants! Nor do they care if you wear 3/4 length sleeves. It just doesn't make any difference to them.

I haven't read all the replies, but I totally agree. Capris are uniformly unflattering.

Think about it people--capri pants add bulk to your midsection and exagerate the tiny size of your ankles--this makes everyone look like a beach ball. Especially if they are baggy--those are the best, then you look like a fat beach ball wearing a diaper. Also, men hate capri pants.



That's hilarious! Do you seriously think straight men care about the length of your pants? If you are not wearing shorts, then straight men are not looking any farther down than your ass.


Where did this myth come from that men are so sex-focused that they don't notice anything about a woman other than her tits and ass? That's a lie.

Ack! 80s flashback! Put some slouchy socks under those godawful shoes, and come on over to watch Lost Boys. Again.

But seriously, I think that look is fine, if you're walking on the beach. At least capris look like they're meant to be short, and not just a way to keep your hems from getting wet.

I want nothing to do with a man who has an opinion on capri pants, or any other article of clothing.
