It’s Friday, and that means answer time! For those of you who have commented with questions from previous ManFAQs, thank you. I’m adding yours to the list of questions women have asked about men over the years, and I will answer them all in turn – to continue to demystify the more malodorous gender for those of the gentler.\u00a0 Actual questions, posed by real women, and answered by a REAL man. What could go wrong?<\/p>\n

Question:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0 What’s up with the long-shorts?\u00a0 Horrible laundry accident?\u00a0 Can’t commit to pants?\u00a0 Hurricane preparedness?\u00a0 What? <\/em><\/p>\n

Answer:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Right off the bat, I’m just\u00a0gonna say it:\u00a0 Don’t mock the manpris, man.\u00a0\u00a0Just like\u00a0Metro’s the new Hetero, the short longs that are neither are just the thing for the sensitive macho man who needs to shield the knees\u00a0but still wants to feel the breeze\u00a0on\u00a0those rock-solid ankles and chiseled calves.\u00a0 They’re long for shorts and short on style, but these versatile vestments are every man’s vowels\u00a0as he spells the word\u00a0S-U-M-M-E-R.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Yeah, sorry – did I mention\u00a0I have a problem with ad copy<\/a>?\u00a0 Look, we both know\u00a0most guys have no sense of fashion whatsoever.\u00a0\u00a0 If I’m wearing mid-calf pants, you can assume that (1) I don’t realize it; (2)\u00a0I tried to do the laundry\u00a0without supervision, or (3) I’m in the backyard building my ark.\u00a0 Since my ‘chiseled calves’ look more like frightened steers,\u00a0you’re within your rights to call me on it if\u00a0I’m in public.\u00a0
