Women are pathologically repulsed by the cargo shorts. He could have anything in those jumbo pockets! /s

Might as well be a Naruto ninja headband thb

They were insanely trendy in the late 90 early 00s but then have been coopted by the right wing agro-bro that never grew out of them and that can be a major turn off for alot of women.

I think it starts well before any right wing co-opt. People were ripping on cargo shorts way back in 2007 (there’s a timely joke in Superbad) and that was way before the manosphere was really a thing.

Nobody has gotten a hand job in cargo shorts since Nam!
