I'm with you on that. It seems that shorts are slowly getting shorter for guys, but I think it's going to take a cultural shift to get mainstream acceptance for shorter male shorts. Remember, there is a whole generation now that associates shorter shorts with females and gay men and capris with women. They think that because male capris are baggy, they are still shorts. I agree that when they are below knee length, they are capris, no matter how baggy they are. I have spent time in the extremely macho cullture of Central Amarica, and men there wear regular capri pants.

Shorts are good and comfortable for girls at home but it's not good to wear it out of home or in party because it Some time make ashamed to wear for girls whom has not really good lags that's why capris are good than shorts. Caprices are available in different verity and for different purposes.

Capris, definitely. But I like the 60's style, which are more tapered.
