I so know what you mean! I never had hair removal problems....but somehow, I'm way more confident wearing shorts &amp; short skirts at 32 than I was a decade ago. I didn't even own dresses &amp; shorts back then, to be honest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taking-a-stand-with-my-summer-body-wearing-shorter-shorts#post-1681256 Sun, 19 Jun 2016 02:21:12 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1681256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these kind of shorts too.

Growing up I had so much DARK hair on my arms that strangers in stores would comment. Really, total strangers would come up to me and say things and some would actually touch my arms. So I tried bleaching it. So instead of tons of dark curly hair I ended up with tons of reddish blonde curly hair. More hair then most men had on their arms. No problem anyplace else just my arms. So I stopped wearing anything that exposed my arms. And was hot and miserable all summer long. About 17 years later I paid a fortune to have it lasered off. And it worked. What did I learn from this? Now I dont care what others say. And lasers are not cheating, just like cosmetic surgery isn't. Whatever it takes to make you feel good. And you look GOOD in those shorts. You have great legs! I am glad you feel comfortable enough to wear what you want. Okay, I will climb down from my soapbox now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taking-a-stand-with-my-summer-body-wearing-shorter-shorts#post-1681126 Sat, 18 Jun 2016 19:10:08 +0000 Chris987 1681126@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great to me! congrats! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taking-a-stand-with-my-summer-body-wearing-shorter-shorts#post-1681118 Sat, 18 Jun 2016 18:36:48 +0000 crazyone 1681118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've only started wearing shorts recently, a combination of growing up in a modest household and also having difficulties with hair removal. I've solved the latter issue by getting laser hair removal done, so this may be a bit of a cheat. But in general I feel a lot more comfortable baring skin now at 31 than I did ten years ago!</p> <p>I'm wearing a Zara pelican top tucked into Gap shorts, with the gold perforated oxfords. I'm at work today but felt fine wearing this because no one is around. </p>
