              As a child of the 60's/70's I find today's aversion to "short shorts" quite funny. To me these were just shorts, and as kids in summer we'd wear these all day, every day without anyone batting an eyelid.

              There's a difference between shorts and short shorts.

              Honestly, if I had daughters, I wouldn't want them wearing tiny tight little short shorts until they're 14 at least, and I'm a 22 year old male who LOVES short shorts.

              There's just no reason for young children to be wearing overly revealing clothing. Sorry if I offended anyone who disagrees.

              [–]ThatGingeOne 24ポイント25ポイント  (1子コメント)

              Yeah, because the reason you love short shorts is basically the same reason you wouldn't want your young daughters wearing them

              [–]lamaksha77 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

              I don't think as a 22M he likes short shorts on kids less than 14 (that would be creepy), and hence he wouldn't want his daughters wearing it till they are at least 14 as well. I find it reasonable enough.

              My opinion is anyone who sexualizes little girls, no matter what they're wearing, is disgusting. A little girl in short shorts isn't sexual. She's just a little girl, being a little girl.

              [–]Overexplains_Everyth 15ポイント16ポイント  (6子コメント)

              It is not about saving em from pervy adult males. It is probably mostly about not making the 12 year old boys get a tingly feeling in their penis. I do not think I am crazy to think 12 year old kids are not going to make the most responsible decisions. To me, and to most adults it's just a child and do not pay them any attention. I much more prefer to be looking at the 20 year old chicks MY age. To a boy the same age, she is not just a child. It may be sexual to the 12 year old boy.

              [–]Luxieee 20ポイント21ポイント  (4子コメント)

              I don't know what to say about this response... boys will become sexually attracted to girls (to be heteronormative here) at around this age, puberty, no matter what my daughter wears. My daughter is not responsible for what her male peers think about her. She is responsible for dressing in a way that she's comfortable with. That's the extent of her responsibility. And my son is responsible to respect that girls and women do not exist as purely objects of their desire, and dress for themselves in ways they like, that they are comfortable with, because they have minds of their own.

              [–]Judgejoebrown69 13ポイント14ポイント  (0子コメント)

              People aren't responsible for what others think of them? I'm all for your empowering statements about individual responsibility, but people should probably care about what others think, that's sort of how society works

              [–]lamaksha77 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

              I think you are too quick to jump of the 'omg sexualising women' bandwagon. When I have kids, I don't want my son wearing boxer briefs and a fish net vest when we leave the house either (at least till he's 16, after that he can do as he pleases). The same goes for my daughter. Like it or not, society has a basic standard for 'acceptable' wear, and its silly to suggest that you can stray way outside that line without getting judged. Male or female.

                  I think it's more about deterring boys her age, not pervy adult males. You know how dad's can be protective of their daughters having boys interested in them?

                      Just going to be the voice of reason here and say its not about what women wear, but what small girls wear in public... Dictating what is and is not appropriate for your children to wear is a part of the job for any parent of any child of any gender up until a certain age. There's really nothing wrong with a father who doesnt want his (guessing) 11 year old daughter to wear shorts of a certain length.

                      Dictating what is and is not appropriate for your children to wear is a part of the job

                      So do that. Say "I know your friends wear these shorts, but we don't think they're appropriate, so you may not wear them." Bonus points if you explain why you think they're inappropriate, listen to her opinion, and encourage her to think for herself about clothing choices (while still obeying your final judgement call as parent). Why embarrass her publicly? How is that a part of the process. When a kid asks for a toy that is too expensive, or wants to see a movie you think is too mature, do you publicly ridicule the idea? Or do you just explain that they can't have/do that thing because you are the parent and you say no. And aside from all of that, you don't get a father of the year award for meeting the bare minimum requirements of parenting by making decisions about what clothing is appropriate for your child. That's like giving an employee of the month award to everybody who shows up for work most of the time and doesn't actively piss anyone off.

                      I agree it wasn't the best way for him to go about it, but I imagine this wasn't his first move after seeing his daughter wear short shorts. This seems like a desperation move after all the other steps. Or fuck maybe he just likes embarrassing his kids, I know I will when I have mine. That's half the fun of being a parent, of course coming from someone who only has nieces and nephews, I could be wrong

                          When did it become a good thing for children who haven't hit puberty to try to be 'sexy'?

                          Oh really, as compared to the hot, sweaty, suffocating tightness of a normal pair of shorts, a pair of short-shorts makes all the difference on a warm summers day? Please, lets call a spade a spade without hiding behind fake functionality here.

                            I'm gonna play devil's advocate here. We'll say the girl is 12 years old.

                            It may not be about a female wearing shorts. It may be about a 12 year old wearing overly short shorts. How capable is a 12 year old in understanding the complexity of sex and the responsibilities associated with it? I assume by 12, the cootie fad has lost steam, and each sex has seen the appeal of the other sex. I started having crushes around the 5th grade.

                            Short shorts on a female draws in male attention. Dem legs. Which is fine ... on a female old enough to understand the responsibilities of sex. 12 year old boys can still be pervy. And we all know guys will try and get out of using a condom, assuming a 12 year old boy even knows what condoms are. It happens. It is bullshit, but it happens.

                            If you have a daughter, you do not want them drawing sexual male attention until they understand what it means, and can understand YOU DO NOT LET A MALE TALK YOU OUT OF USING A CONDOM.

                            It is not about repressing a female's sexuality. It is about holding it off until they are capable of understanding what it all means, how it all works, and not being manipulated by shithead males.

                            I do not think I am crazy to think a 12 years old is not old enough to be making 12 year old boys feel some type of way and for it to end responsibly. So it is not necessarily about controlling female sexuality as it is about WHEN exposure to certain shit happens based on mental maturity.

                                Sure thats the problem. Its nothing to do with 11 year olds convinced by mass media that they have to dress like sexually active women at least twice their age.

                                I wore short shorts when I was 11 because I lived in a city that gets HOT in the summer, not because I thought I needed to attract anyone.

                                I am sure most 11 year olds don't understand the full meaning/implications of their actions when they are mimicking things they see on TV. I'm not railing against shorts in general. However I'm sure super short jeans cutoffs isn't the sole comfortable clothing option for 11 year old children.

                                  ya know, this is cool and all, and I respect your opinions, but just one question.... Is it really that bad to try and raise your daughter to not dress skimpily? I mean, don't get me wrong I love a girl in short shorts, but as a guy I could see why he wouldn't want his daughter dressing in short shorts, especially at a young age like that. If this is the only thing he could do to really convey his message then I'm all for that. This has no bearing to my life your life, or probably everyone else on reddit's life. Why do you guys care? And he's a dad, isn't embarrassing their kids part of being a dad? People that act like this is actually an issue make me worried, of all the other shit to bitch about people are bitching about a father embarrassing his daughters, trying to convince them to not look, i'm sorry but to not look "easy" especially little girls that really have no business dressing that way in the first place? I get it, shaming women for their sexuality is bad, and embarrassing people is bad I'm not arguing that, I'm just saying that although I respect both of your stances on this type of stuff I really just kind of think it's bullshit. It's a non-issue. It's so low on the world's priority list that it shouldn't even have to be brought up. This is like scraping the bottom of the barrel for something to bitch and be snarky about. ah well, that's just my 2 cents. I'm sure there's going to be some SJW telling my I'm scum for being on the dad's side on this, but it's whatever.

                                  edit: fuck. I just noticed I asked more than one question.

                                  I think there is validity to not wanting your child to dress specifically to attract sexual attention at a young age, and to teach them not to rely on their looks and sexuality to forge relationships and build self worth, but at the same time a lot of "revealing" clothes are also comfortable and cool during the warmer months. Also, wanting to look fashionable doesn't always mean wanting to attract sexual attention, and short shorts are fashionable for teen girls. I think if the father in OPs picture is worried about his daughters emerging sexuality and how she chooses to express it, he should talk to her, rather than pulling bizarre stunts like this which don't really seem to serve any purpose or communicate any real message.

                                  but it serves the purpose of trying to convince his daughter to not wear short shorts. But you're absolutely right on the communication front. Strong relationships are forged through strong communication, even familial relationships. I agree that revealing clothes are both fashionable and functional this time of year. Unfortunately though looking fashionable attracts sexual attention, whether it's intended or not, so I understand the father's worry, he may not be worried about his daughter as he is worried about all the young guys that are going to try to get into her pants. She may be strong enough to resist the temptation, but I'm sure there's some guy out there that'll be able to weasel his way in. I'm sure because it's inevitably going to happen any way, so I can see why he would want to postpone it until his daughter and the other guys are maybe a little more mature. In the end though I'm not sure exactly why he decided to do it, I'm more worried about his right to do it. Why he did it doesn't really matter, it's the fact that he did it that does. Well, as far as I'm concerned anyways.

                                  So we have two options here:

                                  1.) shame her opinion in public wherever you go to teach her a lesson

                                  Or

                                  2.) as the person who controls the money in the house, JUST DON'T FUCKING BUY YOUR 10 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER SHORT SHORTS

                                  Exactly, you can buy a pair of short shorts at Garage for like 10 bucks. The vast majority of kids could save up their allowance to buy that in no time.

                                        When I was a kid growing up, the sagging pants with were all the fucking rage among the really cool kids. And I wanted to wear my jeans that way. My dad told me no, I can't do that, because it's not a respectable way to behave.... I didn't really care. I'd leave the house normally and adjust later. My dad found out, came home to find him wearing his pants the same way, later that day I decided I never wanted to wear pants that way again.

                                            I see where you're coming from but have you seen what clothes are made for girls now? It's difficult to find shorts/shirts that aren't "skimpy" or whatever. It's wrong to shame young girls for wearing clothes that are marketed towards them when there are hardly any other options.

                                            But there are other options than short shorts which is the problem here, I mean if he had argued skinny jeans or anything like that then I probably wouldn't have given too shits because then he's clearly being overprotective. Same reason I would be more willing to be on his side if the daughter had asked for yoga pants. I see where he is coming from and I respect his reasons, and I don't really see a problem with his methods if that is what he thought was necessary to get his daughters to change their minds. I see what you mean by "it's wrong to shame young girls for wearing clothes that are marketed towards them when there are hardly any other options" and I agree that generally shaming anyone for wearing a particular thing is ridiculous, but like I said generally, this, for me, is an exception. In the end though that's just my opinion on it, I'm not saying everyone needs to see it my way or anything, in fact I kind of hope people don't, because like I said, I like women in short shorts, so I want them to succeed, I just think that the dad is being wrongfully attacked. attacked is a strong word but I can't really think of another one to replace it.

                                              No, the fact that the action is likely to be perceived that way could probably be seen as sexism though - or at least it is definitely over-sexualization. The idea that someone would see a preteen wearing short-shorts and instead of thinking they are wearing them to be comfy, think they are wearing them to look sexy, is rather creepy.

                                              Sexuality shouldn't be frowned upon. It's a problem that we have in our society; it's one which impacts laws regarding sex, the movies we can watch, and most importantly, the healthy development of our young people.

                                              Sex is a part of life. And healthy sexuality is very important for someone going through their teenage years. People should feel comfortable in their own skin. They shouldn't feel the need to hide, or make parts of themselves scarce. I can understand why a father might not want his daughter dressing like that, but inhibiting her from exploring her sexuality—getting comfortable in her own skin—that's even more harmful.

                                              I agree sexuality shouldn't be frowned upon, shouldn't be controlled, shouldn't be hidden, nor should it be attacked. But neither should a father's right to decide what their young child is allowed to wear and what she isn't allowed to wear. With only this picture we can't really tell what happened. Although unlikely, she may have gotten the short shorts after all because she still thought they were "so cute." I think when we strip away a parent's individual rights to how they raise their children and try to raise them in a community like setting we overstep. Especially when everyone says that a child is a reflection on the parent. If you want to raise my children fine, but their actions, their consequences should fall on you. You know what I mean? It doesn't however, it reflects on me, "wow she's dressed like a slut, I can't believe her parent's let her out like that" is much more frequently thought and said that "wow, look at that 10-11-12-13-14 year old expressing her sexuality, GOOD FOR HER!" With that being the case why bother worrying about people's opinions on the parenting style?

                                              Shaming women for their sexuality works best when started at an early age.

                                              I think that's where this has all stemmed from. I've just been trying to explain my point in these messages. It's difficult when it's all about the 10 year old's sexually attributed short shorts when I'm just trying to defend the dad's right to be a dad without people insulting him and his parenting style :/ Live and let live ya know?

                                              because we're talking about children wearing the clothes (for style, commonly, not function, also) and how that is perceived, whether a dad wants short shorts on a child. No one is arguing that shorts aren't for nice weather.

                                                Says everyone who wants to pander shit to younger children, ever.

                                                Your sexuality is a great thing to discover and become enlightened about, but there is a time for that. There are limits to what a child should be exposed to as they grow up. The world today already saturates the shit out of every little child with images/ideas/thoughts/etc of sexual nature that are likely way too much for them to handle.

                                                If this father tells his 20 year old daughter to not wear what she wants, that's a different story. Protecting his pre-teen kid is a different matter altogether. Kids at that age don't need to learn what attention from the opposite gender is like. In fact that shouldn't be on the agenda for many years still. They have innocence about them, and parents have to protect that innocence, so that they may grow to be mentally healthy adults whose childhood didn't consist of thwarting of leering gazes and unwanted attention.

                                                When they grow older and are more mature and have a sense of confidence about who they are (beyond just the flesh), then they should explore their sexuality. The age for this isn't necessarily a clear cut boundary, but that girl in the photo is way too young.

                                                  Little girls don't need short shorts, make up and fuckin cosmo magazines. They need to be children. I saw this like ~13 year old and her friend reading a cosmo and on the cover it said something like, "ten things in the bedroom thay will drive him wild." Girls that age do not need to be worrying about that. From my experience the more quiet or nerdy girls who aren't obsessed with being popular and looking hot and having boyfriends end up being more stable people, and end up having more happy lives. I don't necessarily agree that this is the best way to teach your daughter about this, but I do agree it's an issue that should be addressed. Let little girls and boy BE little girls and boys.

                                                  Dude, I was a child too once and I've always loved girly stuff like makeups and fashion magazines (though not cosmo). Why is it that girls are applauded if they like "boyish" toys but then people make fun of them for liking girly stuff? I was "nerdy", but I loved makeup and fashion. Why should you shame girls for being their own selves? Some girls simply love this stuff. Who are you to judge how children should behave? That's NOT letting them be little girls.

                                                    I apologize if I'm being presumptive, but I feel like at some point you may have heard the term "rape culture" and been dismissive. After all, you're not a rapist, I'm not a rapist, and we certainly don't (think) we know any rapists. So what would "rape culture" even mean? Essentially? That people assign blame to rape victims unconsciously. This blaming of the victim, rather than the perpetrator, comes with justifications. "Her outfit was too revealing.", "She was walking home, alone, and late at night!", "She drank too much!" But what about the outfit forces the rapist? Is it the egregious showing of skin? Is it the body beneath? Is it the short shorts? None of these things are responsible. The blame lies solely on the perpetrator, no matter the circumstances. One does not "accidentally" rape someone. You either have consent to a sexual act, or it's rape. There's no middle ground. When people talk about girls wearing clothes that are "too revealing" they are falling for a culture that blames victims. They don't consider the difficulty in acquiring non-short shorts. I work retail, and when I'm folding in the girls section it's apparent that there are no shorts. Only short shorts. TL:DR; In the event that you don't care about any of this, or don't read this, at least heed that final anecdote. Perhaps it's not the girl picking the shorts, but the shorts maker picking girls.

                                                    I agree to a point, I don't think that rape should be attributed to the victim in any way shape or form because they are victims. They didn't say "hey you. yeah you. Rape me." But I also am not going to say I don't think that revealing clothing doesn't attribute rapists choice in victims. I think the father is just trying to protect the daughter in a way he deems reasonable. Some people don't think it's reasonable, personally I don't think it's our place to judge his decision. But i digress because that's not what you were talking about, you were talking about the fact that we think the victims are the cause of their own raping. Like I said, I don't think that the victims should be blamed, but i do think that clothes may attribute in attraction levels which may further help lead to a rape situation. Usually the decision of whom to rape is more involved i believe. But I also think that the father is trying to protect his daughter from all negative attention, possible rapists, possible stalkers, shitty boyfriends that only want you for sex, those kinds of things. I hope I stayed on topic mostly. or at least a little.

                                                        Shaming someone for their sexuality when they’re 20 is a lot different than telling a 10-year-old she can’t wear short shorts yet. From personal experience, there was a stage when shorts went from something that I threw on without thinking about it to an article of clothing that would get me noticed by boys (and men). Same thing happened with bras, underwear, shoes, and purses. Obviously I can’t speak for the entire female population, but nearly all of my friends went through the same thing. My parents (who are very sex positive) put up appropriate boundaries and I wasn’t allowed to wear certain articles of clothing. Pre-teen me was pissed for about a week, but it didn’t have any negative (or shaming) effects.

                                                        I have two daughters.

                                                        They can dress however they like once they are old enough to understand the signals that certain attire sends until that time I'll make my assessment of what they choose and indicate where I see an issue.

                                                        Mum does the same.

                                                        Q: do you have any daughters?

                                                          You've never been embarrassed by your parents? The thing is honestly put all the feminism aside and think of it this way; I personally wish I would have listened a lot more to my parents a lot of the things they told me was because of mistakes they made and saw others make. It's a shame that we don't get born with their accumulated wisdom because it seems that by the time you're wise enough to understand some of the things they were saying, you're too fucking old to make a difference (usually). Hats off to those who had the mental fortitude during their youth to understand that no you fucking idiot you actually don't know better than your parents.

Other than for doing house/yard work while you lounge around in sweat pants, or sweat pants cut off into shorts depending on weather. A shirt is out of the picture in both scenarios though. Obviously.

                                                              Because kids always listen to their parents and follow everything they say. There are zero kids that are hard headed and don't listen to their parents. It's almost like there's different approaches to teaching to be effective for different types of people.

Whether we like it or not, women are extremely objectified physically and it really isn't very appropriate for girls past a certain age to wear shorts as short as some that I've seen. I can only imagine what it might be like to be a father knowing that there are a lot of men (or women) that could take advantage of their following of trends and become "victim" to being disrespected because of the way they dress. Of course I think everyone should be able to dress however they want but that's just a parent trying to protect their kids.

                                                                    [–]student_of_bokonon 5ポイント6ポイント  (1子コメント)

                                                                    When I was a young boy my parents never told me what to wear, but constantly told my sister that her clothes were "inappropriate," when my basketball shorts were even shorter than what she was wearing.

                                                                    [–]tvbox 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

Why not tell guys not to sexualize girls all the time (and by girls, I mean girls 14 and younger like in the picture) and tell girls that they shouldn't wear clothes that objectifies or sexualizes themselves and dress modestly? What is the harm of making sure of both. And that includes making sure boys wear appropriate clothing also (no baggy jeans, short shorts etc)
