Why are they called boy shorts?

You are thinking of todays standards for how boys wear their shorts. These shorts are so-called boy shorts not by todays standards in shorts, but to the type of shorts wore by boys, as well as men in the 70's and 80's.

-Luv ya :o)

Boys are too short.

I don't know! Cuz if I saw a boy in those I would think he was....ummmm....suspect???

Maybe because some of them kind of resemble boxer briefs, only way shorter. I think that was the intention of them at first, but of course they had to make they sexy!!!

They don't have a really girly cut - they're more like a shorter version of guys' boxer briefs. I think that's more or less where the name comes from.

Probably some guy designer created them because he liked them. Don't forget it's a mans world!!!

This for girls ONly !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

Hot emo boys kissing.?

Do girls like being called pet names by ther bf?

Because they resemble little boys underwear.

Yes, because they look like boy's underwear...and by the way, women look sooooooooo sexy in them.
