To me, shorts and flip flops just look stupid. On the other hand, clean chaps, spotless studded jacket, chain wallet and a handlebar moustache fits the bill. (In many cases imo)

If a man ever made negative comments about what I was wearing I would have to tell him I only liked women, try someone else.

99.9% of the time I'm jeans and boots. I did make a four block run to Lowes yesterday in shorts and sneakers.

More likely a symptom of a limited vocabulary, this many people cannot be closeted gay

Hmmm, would that be "Homo Sapien, Homo Erectus, or Homozygous?" There are quite a few so you have to be specific.

In most cases Homo Stupidest might fill the bill in this case.

Used to wear shorts at work and rode in that way until I got two big old honking burns on my right inside calf from leaning the bike over to the kickstand and smelling something cooking. Started wearing a pair of jeans over the shorts. sometimes we learn things the hard way.
