My favorite part about someone using the word homo in a context that 99.9% of all people recognize as not having anything to do with butt pirating, is when someone from that .1% group chimes in with a serious "you homophobic bigot".

Geezus...come on.

Nothing begs for road rash like shorts & sandals. Gay? No, just ignorant of what can happen.

Not my style but wouldn't refer to it as 'homo'. Now a G-string and chaps, that's a different story.

I've worn shorts a few times, mainly happened if me and the wife were heading to a picnic. I just don't feel comfortable wearing shorts on a bike. But everyone makes there own decisions, it's what freedom is all about.
