Why are my calves so huge?

Question

I'm 5 foot 3 and 140 lbs. I have alittle bit of chub but even back in high school when I was 110 I've had these huge calves. Seriously, they are almost as big as my thighs. I can't get rid of them and I hate wearing short skirts because of them. I don't want to wear pants every day of my life. What can I do to make them smaller or disguise them?

Update:

What kind of skirts should a girl with stocky legs wear then?

You can either wear pants or accept yourself as you are. Your body has built that part of yourself to hold your weight you have been structuring your body parts to fit your bodies needs.

It's genetics. I have the same prob. My Mom has huge calves too. I'm 5'6" and I was 120 in high school, and was self consious about wearing shorts, skirts and I couldn't fit my big calves into boots. There's nothing you can do. Exercising just makes em bigger.
