I have no idea why but for many years I felt this way too. Then it just went away and I have no idea why I would be embarrassed about my legs. Shorts are great!

Did you perhaps become a father?

Does becoming a father make you less body conscious?

Did you get a job as a postman?

[–] QuizzaciousOtter@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Haha, nope, not this one too.

TBH I think I just became less self conscious and more confident about my body when I started exercising.

This is how it happened for me too. I started lifting and now comfortably wear shorts short enough to show some thigh lol
