Cleanup TODO List
The following have been identified as issues in this articles. Wikipedians from countries other than the USA are asked to help resolve some of them as many result from a lack of a broader multicultural worldview. Please add to this list if needed.--Lendorien (talk) 17:13, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
- The socialogy section suffers from an Monocultural tone focusing on fashion and style in the USA. A more multicultural tone is needed.
- Definitions of types of shorts simularly needs to be revised to represent a more multicultural worldview.
- Much of this smacks of Original Research, especially in the section defining types of shorts.
- Sourcing is desperately needed.
Short shorts
I added the missing (!!!) Short Shorts to the list along with annotations and external references. (Daisy Dukes and hot pants were a much later spin-off of short shorts.) The entry also mentions The Purple People Eater and the Short Shorts song. For those who might be interested, I didn't consider the lyrics appropriate for the main article (feel free to disagree), but I include the gist of the lyrics here.
In the Short Shorts song, these lyrics are repeated 3 times interspersed with saxophone and guitar solos:
In The Purple People Eater song, the chorus and the people eater itself refer to the earlier Short Shorts song as well as the fashion in two of its stanzas. For example:

breeches
I wish someone would write about breeches, specifically where I can get some nowadays.
June 2008, vandalism detected
The article seemed to be riddled with vandalism and inaccuracies. Speculation runs rampant and even goes so far as to insult a university which seemingly has nothing to do with the article. True clean up is desperately needed.
Asociation with scouting
Since the beggining of the scouting movement there has been an asociation with shorts and until not so long ago, was one of the very few reasons why a grown man would wear shorts in the UK.(86.152.184.218 (talk) 20:57, 5 June 2008 (UTC))
My pants
My pants definately never cover my entire leg as the article says. Not that you'd be able to see, because not being insane, I wear trousers or sometimes shorts over them. 89.243.204.148 (talk) 21:06, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
New picture needed
Preferably one that wasn't taken by a stalker. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.237.55.2 (talk) 08:55, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
Multiple Issues
I've tagged this article.
Poorly written:
The "board" refers to surfboards although many others also wear them.
Inaccurate:
Hot pants were very popular in the early 1970s, especially with baseball's Philadelphia Phillies, who created a unit of usherettes called the Hot Pants Patrol.
Despite the name, the Hot Pants Patrol wore a kind of all-in-one tunic with short, tight legs attached, so although they gave a hot-pants effect, they were not hot pants at all. See and . Also the popularity of hot-pants began in the late '60s.
Contradictory statements:
...but the perception of shorts as being only for young boys took several decades to change and to some extent still exists in certain circles.
but:
Today, shorts are worn by either sex from birth through old age without any stigma attached.
Description of boyshorts does not match that on boyshorts page (problem may be with either definition).
Bad definitions and baseless generalisations:
Slackettes: A term coined in the late 20th century by the fashion cognoscenti of the New York City neighborhood of Nolita
Hoaxy or too limited in usage. The term might have been coined in Nolita, but it doesn't seem to have ever been known anywhere else.
Zip-off shorts: A pair of long pants that zip off at the knee, allowing the wearer to change from pants to shorts as the weather changes. These have become a common casual fashion item all over the world in the past decade or so.
I'm not convinced these are called 'zip-off shorts', I have more normally heard them called 'zip-off pants' and 'zip-off trousers', unsurprising, as the whole garment is a pair of trousers that can be converted to shorts by unzipping the lower legs. Google is of limited use here in checking use of the term, as the vendors of these garments form the majority of google hits, and on their pages the word 'pants' (or trousers) is always used close to the word 'shorts' in describing these garments.
The Switchback trousers worn at certain times by the Boy Scouts of America are in their WKP article referred to as cargo pants that convert to shorts, not vice-versa. Even the picture in this article of the ventilated garments illustrating 'zip-offs' refers to them as trousers rather than shorts. Perhaps that paragraph needs moving to the trousers article, as (surprisingly) there is no mention of zip-offs there at all.
I've made a start on these issues. There is an obvious unmentioned cross-over between the outerwear style of bootyshorts, hotpants and 'short shorts'. Meanwhile Daisy Dukes (which are just home-made denim hotpants) have their own article. Hmm. Also bootyshorts are marooned in the boyshorts lingerie article.
