Starting to become frustrated...

[Bede735]

I've started to notice during the last few sessions at my local pool that I'm wearing easily the briefest suits (especially with the absence of girls in bikinis). I don't wear anything longer than 2"" suits, but I feel totally comfortable with that. Why must other guys insist on wearing knee-length shorts?
The weather was sunny today, and I saw lads walking around in shorts, of the same length as that at the pool, and I can't make sense of it. How can they feel comfortable wearing shorts in that environment, but not to wear something briefer than that in water?
