Is it wrong to wear shorts that go to your knee if your really pale? Like compared to another pale person your paler?

[Beach_Girl]

I have SUPER pale legs and am only tan on part of my arms, however my arms and legs could still be considered pale. Everytime I wear shorts to school I get made fun of because they go to my knee and because I'm so pale. I've had enough of it! But, todays gonna get really hot and I don't want to die from heat in pants like I did yesterday, so is it really that weird to wear shorts, should I even keep wearing them? Should I put up with this crap from my peers?

[PrettyPriya]

No, that isn't weird at all. That is just your natural skin tone. I don't know why anyone would make fun of that. The most important thing is that you are comfortable.

If you are at school and uncomfortable because of the way you are dressed and the heat, you will be distracted. With warmer weather coming, there is no reason you can't/shouldn't wear shorts.

To those that tease or make fun, they are likely doing so because they are just not good people or have insecurities and that is their way of making themselves feel better. YOU be YOU!!

[Beach_Girl]

Thanks! I think that really put everything into perspective, I think I'll wear shorts to school whenever its hot, because if I don't show my legs, how are they gonna tan?

[PrettyPriya]

@Beach_Girl Exactly! Besides, you are born the way you are. If your skin tone is more fair, why is that a problem? It will tan with sun and the only way that happens is if you have shorts or at the beach with swimwear.

Just be yourself and don't listen to those that make fun. They are not worth your time at all.

Thanks a lot Priya

[PrettyPriya]

@Beach_Girl Most welcome and take care! 🙂

[Beach_Girl]

Thanks you to Priya

[PrettyPriya]

@Beach_Girl Thank you kindly for the MHO 🙂

[Beach_Girl]

Yeah no problem! Your answer was VERY helpful! Thanks for giving me your opinion on the matter! :)

[PrettyPriya]

@Beach_Girl Oh, you are most welcome. I hope you are enjoying some shorts weather. I certainly am here. Even at this hour it is 38C or 100F. Tomorrow close to 45C or about 113F! Hot!

[Beach_Girl]

How that's hot! Thanks for all your help Priya! Enjoy the warm weather!

[Rainbowpearl]

Of course not, ignore the haters there's nothing wrong with pale skin, all skin colors are actually attractive as long as they're natural
Just don't forget your sunscreen, so that you don't get a sunburn

[DannyUk2017]

People are, White, Black, Pale, Ginger, Tanned... so with so many diversity in colours i don't think should be an Issue for you or for "others". I don't see nothing wrong in that, normally in England are lots of people Pale, Male/Female, i see them in the streets and no one give's them any hard time or pointing fingers, so F**k them what they say. As long as you feel good in Your skin should be no one's problem!

The only thing weird here, are your classmates :)
Sure: youngsters tease each other with little things like that; but everyone also KNOWS that it's 'silly'.
If they want to embarrass themselves with these childish games - let them do so.

The bullies of my own school time achieved little in life later on. Time is on your side :D

[AviatorTom]

Your peers pick on you because they are jealous that you have the guts to do what you want to do, and they usually cave to peer pressure. Wear the shorts and enjoy your day.

[TNTitlebelt]

You're asking if it's wrong to wear shorts that go to your knee, AS A GIRL?

Guys typically don't wear shorts above the knee, so I think that's what you meant.

And, I think it's fine to wear them past the knee. Why wouldn't it be?

[Beach_Girl]

Well no, that's not exactly what I meant, my parents won't let me wear shorts above my knee and every other girl in my school wears shorts above their knee and are tan. I was asking about is it wrong for me to show my legs in shorts when they're so pale. But thanks for the opinion! :)

[Beach_Girl]

Oh umm... I'll think about it okay? :)

[Birdlegs]

Just do what every other teenage girl would do and sneakily bring shorter shorts to change into when you get to school just make sure to change back before going home

[Reaper1985]

knee length shorts are fine but could also try capris if your worry about your sensitive skin.

[Anonymous]

Wear the shorts. When people make fun of you find something to make fun of them back. That or lean into it. Nothing wrong with being pale.

[boggboss]
