I'm from Wisconsin, and have only been in Florida 5 years.

Though I like Florida better, the amount of skin Floridians show was always kind of a shock to me, since my family is very conservative.

And my girlfriend, as a Floridian all her life, is no exception.

At school and work she'd wear long pants, but outside of that she only wore shorts of 2 inch inseam, tank tops, and she'd show some cleavage or her belly button sometimes.

I told her she shouldn't wear something just because everyone else does it.

She just giggled, and said: "Oh, you're from Wisconsin, right? Around here, it's different. It's just what people wear, honey. And don't you dare think I didn't catch you glancing at my legs. You know you're attracted. It's just kind of different than what you're used to."

And I just blushed really hard, as it was true, and said, "Yeah"... then she told me, "I wax my legs once a month so I can wear shorts daily. Come on, have a feel!"

And so I did... and damn, is her skin soft.

She then told me I'd look really good in shorter sleeves and shorts, so we went shopping... together, she helped me decide on a nice tank, and nice shorts of 7 inch inseam.

And while I liked the style and it felt good and relieving, it was kind of felt weird to show so much skin... like I was throwing my family values away. I liked the way I looked in shorts, but it didn't feel right.

I mentioned this to my girlfriend, and she just said, "Don't worry about that, sweetie. You like those clothes, and they look really good on you. Besides, we're in Florida. How many long pants do you see right now?"

And my girlfriend also got me to go to the beach with her, where she'd wear nothing but a bikini, and me tiny trunks of 4 inch inseam. It felt weird, but really good. Like I was free.

Still... my parents and the rest of my family are super modest, what would they think if they saw their only son baring so much skin?
