Probably because 999/1000 people who do this would be way more comfortable with pants on. >

I know a guy who's the 1/1000. Shorts year round, in -50 F°, he has sensory issues and pants just don't do it for him. >

Scotland?  Why not get traditional?  Just switch to a kilt in the winter. >

Are you a fat hairy dude? Cuz every fat hairy dude I know is like this. >

Yes. Im threatened by my mum over leg hair. >

It’s -22c in Iowa, I definitely wouldn’t recommend wearing shorts >

pfffft OP is talking about -9C not -22C!!! >

Op said “no matter the whether” I’m saying if he happened upon -22 he wouldn’t want to wear shorts. >

Damn youngster Joey >

Hahaha >

I mean my legs don’t get cold easily but I usually just put pants on because it looks far better with 3 jackets. >

It’s -24 Celsius right now where I live in Illinois, with a -37 Celsius wind chill; would you still wear shorts here? >

Good to know there's something under the kilt. >

Are ye a postie by any chance mate? >

No. Im an appearently "derranged" student >

Ahhh, you're a teenager. That makes sense. >

Yeah, you're gonna get some weird looks, you friggin maniac >

How much do you weigh >

About 190-210lbs >

You’re right mate >

This is the the whitest shit I've ever heard >

Wtf does race have to do with this? >

I am indeed a pale ass basterd >

hey so long as the top is warm, your legs can freeze >

Tbh in Australia this is super common, people wear shorts in most place all year round. Especially in Queensland >

-28C here yesterday without wind chill, my friend. That's frost bite on bare skin in under five minutes. Good luck! >

Teenagers and fat dudes in my town agree with you. It was -30F last night. >

bk in  Scotland yer  supposed to wear a Kilt not Shorts! >

It’s -45c outside so ima stick with pants >

if you're comfortable, you're comfortable. i think that's all that matters.
maybe the reason you get weird looks is because most people are cold as fuck in -9C weather.
but hey if you can handle it, more power to ya >

Yeah I'm one of those weirdos too. I enjoy being cold. It's calming.
Realistically speaking you only have to put on pants to prevent frostbite, and depending on a lot it can get pretty cold before you're near that. >

i live in the middle east and if i go to any european country in the winter ill fucking freeze to death so for me? no, i freeze to death in 20c weather >

Well yea -9c is like nothing id be wearing shorts too >

I’m on the tip of Long Island in NY, I wear shorts year round. When it gets around 30 degrees (F) I may even take my flip flops off. >

Um... ok. Go you?
