I do it all the time, especially when I’m in working out. And I have been know to do it on cooler days when I just have to wear some really, obnoxiously short and tight cut off Jean shorts.

It is not the most stupid thing I have heard of. But it may be a style faux pas. And one that very few cis females would commit.
On one side, shorts are usually worn because of an sporting activity or just because the weather is warm. Wearing under either condition would be kind of defeating the purpose of wearing shorts in the first place.
Having said that, style is relative. And you also have real life style and “I wear this because I like it and I’m staying home so who cares”. So, unless you are going out and plan of attending an event where the paparazzi are going to be all over, shouldn’t be a big deal.

I think it looks ok and if at the gym or on my bike in the winter its a good way to were active wear in stealth mode

When I was running marathons, I’d wear tights on those practice runs when the temperature was starting to drop (I live in northern Canada). My wife didn’t like the look of the tights on their own so she insisted I wear shorts over the tights. Wasn’t a big deal. Now I imagine there are some tights that would look terrible with some types of shorts but that’s something for the fashion police to determine. Don’t have too many fashion police in my neck of the woods and the moose and bear you meet on the trail really don’t care. Hugs, Krista.

Hi Krista………where in Northern Canada are you? I am in Elliot Lake….Ontario. Are animals just not the Greatest?? They don’t care what you look like….they just take you as you are. Who the heck coined the phrase Dumb animals??? They are way ahead of us.

Each to their own. I would not, but a sixteen year old girl might find it very trendy.

Yes, I don’t see the point of it. Who can understand this fashion move or wearing bra on outside??? I guess it is up to us males to show the females how to dress.
Do any of you girls wear your bra on the outside of your clothes??? I like to sunbath in panties and bra as opposed to bikini! Why……I don’t really know….dropped on head as baby guess.

So! up to now, very mixed views. Here in the u.k. it seems mainly a young girls fashion trend, very popular in the summer months. Obviously, because of my younger Femme age, i like to keep up with the trends but also i do actually like the fashion as it is relatively simplistic. I mean, what could be easier than wearing a pair of low denier tights under a pair of denim shorts?
My wife, as i said, loathes the fashion, but she has a much older way of dressing, we both are literally like chalk and cheese in that respect.
Keep the votes coming, this is so interesting! thankyou for your votes so far 🙂

It’s an awesome and sexy look. Before I went fully fem I began wearing shorts with tan pantyhose. Then I went to short girls shorts for a more leggy look. The final phase was adding platform wedges.
I thought this was one of the best ways to show off legs. My role model and inspiration for this was Daisy Duke. I loved the look then and I love it now.

Very sexy but you gotta be young and have a great figure – bout 20 years ago for me
- May 13, 2019 at 6:14 am #176955
Hmmm…. It kinda falls in with the socks and sandals category, it may be comfortable, but not everyone likes how it looks. If it’s a younger girl look, and you’re older, proberly not a good idea – it may attract unwanted attention.

I have to take part here, again………….never to be left out
1. There are dressy shorts-or better–short-shorts——–and hose is a must, black velvet ladies shorts worn with a jacket or bolero, with a sheer cami or low cut blouse ( where you can give some peek-away with your bra with dressy heels or wedges make a wonderful look…………. barely black is my favorite with black velvet stretchy short shorts………..with absolutely perfect no bulge look………hi-waisted even better !!
and
2. Gym shorts like Hooter’s girls, or denim cut-offs, are a no-no with hose or tights….looks cheep and tacky………..
For the Dress up look, YES———for the everyday, gonna walk around look—NO WAY !!!

A very interesting thread here Fiona.I just voted firmly against.But all of a sudden I recall when I first dressed en femme privately at the age of twelve I wore my football shorts over my tights.Mostly because I didn’t have the courage to seek out my mum’s skirts and try them on thinking they wouldn’t fit me.However I felt great wearing those shorts over the tights as it made me look like a girl wearing hot pants.My ultimate fantasy then was to be a girl in hot pants and knee length white boots.If I was younger I would do it these fayd but not approoriate for me at my age.
- May 14, 2019 at 7:19 am #177286
To be honest I’ve thought about trying out the whole ‘tights/leggings with (tight bootie) shorts’ at the gym a couple of times but haven’t had the guts to follow through. Perhaps soon 😊
- May 16, 2019 at 8:01 am #177739Anonymous
I like the trend especially since I cant shave my legs. Get the best of both worlds 🙂
- May 16, 2019 at 9:17 am #177751Anonymous
I don’t see a problem with it if you look good and feel good. I’m from the UK and hot pants worn over american tan tights were all the rage in the ’70s. Nowadays its more denim shorts and black opaque tights in the UK and it is a younger girl thing. I loved wearing shorts and tights when I was younger.
- June 3, 2019 at 6:13 pm #182610Anonymous
Also an expat from the UK, shorts over tights has always been quite normal but I agree, its certainly a younger look.
- May 17, 2019 at 6:22 am #177934
I might be in the minority but from a style that one would wear in public, I cringe at the thought of wearing shorts over tights. I dislike the look. It’s just a fashion faux pas. If you’re doing it for some sort of sporting activity, I guess I could see that. But to go in that “style” to go shopping, to the coffee shop, to whatever….ugh!!!
- May 18, 2019 at 6:10 am #178317
I think its adorable, and of you havent had time to shave its practical
- May 18, 2019 at 7:21 am #178337
I’m not a big fan of the look and, as Tiffany said, it’s not very practical here in South Florida because of the heat and humidity. Plus, if I’m going to take the time and effort to shave my legs, I want them to be seen. They are definitely my most feminine part.
It also seems to be an outdated style here in the States. I saw a lot of it back in the 80’s, but not so much lately. The only time I really see that look is when I visit my daughters up north and see runners wearing tights under shorts because it’s cold outside.
But, just because I don’t like the look, doesn’t mean you can’t like it. To each her own.
- May 18, 2019 at 1:57 pm #178504
I have seen it lots of times with the college students. I think its cute.

I am sure that at least one of you have pointed out Superman. You going to tell him off? 🙂 I must admit that i am terrible confused here. Modelling, shorts over bare legs, nylons or various & sundry leggings is “part of the day!” when doing shoots, QUITE OFTEN mind you! Yet so very many are against this? Hmm… I am ‘befuddled’. One of my “hottest” (and most requested outfits is for dance). I’m in all black, long black hair fall, hair volumized, “ITTY BITTY” shiny leather shorts, metallic black leggings (that still allow flesh colours to bleed through as you ‘stretch’ the right ways), OTK boots …that’s far enough to get my drift. It’s one of the most watched Vids in the ‘trans’ world and was performed in 1991 (Sept). (So, because this site is for CD’ers, I’d sooner think most haven’t viewed it …since it’s of no interest why would you right)? hahaha……
I’m going to try to figure out WHY so many are vehemently against what I’ve been ‘learned’ is AOK (but 100’s of thousands of models (and honestly we ARE ‘fashion conscious’ but there’s NO accounting for taste I suppose). Guess I’ll just NOT wear the shorts and let the ladies “p*ss & moan” that I’m not DRESSED ….because it is EASY TO SEE that I can’t win with nor without, so why bother trying to appease “the others” (you will slowly lose your sanity on THAT danged path).
*My neighbors feel that MY SMARTEST MOVE IN LIFE (they are Christians, and FULLY know I am Goth & “trans”) …they have expressed to me that GOD damned me before birth, (umm, yeah, RIGHT!), and my only chance at HEAVEN is to have my breasts removed (because they are “demonic or cancerous” and will lead others to ‘damnation’ also! –>and admit myself to a VA Domiciliary for daily “mental activities designed to make “trannies” normal. They actually make you WELCOME death.
Want to come home and have THAT BS across the road from you? (Well, 3 miles closer to town is ‘across the road’ out here)! hahaha…. THAT is ‘the level of Heat’ when you are in my shoes. Out & About is ‘eventless’ 99.9% of the time. I easily and always pass for ‘femme’ because I AM femme (as far as I am concerned …especially now). Femininity INCREASES with a person’s age (I’m talking males). For women? It actually decreases as their hormonal levels plummet and never recover. Don’t take my word for it though. MAYO CLINIC has several such studies, each and all of them reflecting what I just stated.

Hi Aimee. (Love the name by the way)
I don’t think that people here is vehemently against the look. Some of us just don’t think it is something that we would wear when going out mainstream. Also, there is a difference which somebody has already pointed out to wearing dressy shorts and hosiery than cut-off jeans shorts with say, fishnets.
And more importantly, everybody has their own style. The fact that some are for it and some are not is purely for conversation.

After retirement from the military I JUMPED on the opportunity to change my name (and you may as long as it’s not for illegal purposes), thus “Aimee” was born. *Amy is my CTS-V Caddy btw. hahah… “Amy, What You Gonna Do?” I Think, I Could Stay With You – For A While Maybe Longer If I Do.” YEAH!
For the record, in several shoots (and just running around), I LOVED wearing my leather shorts (black/shiny and tight), with fishnets and pumps or OTK’s …”cheap?” Nope. Sexy. Period. If it isn’t, why in the world am I always inundated with “proposals” for “things?” 🙂 (By both men & women no less). So …it’s not as ‘taboo’ as many may think? I dunno. To each their own.
There’s a place for about everything ….and I tend to “walk on the wild side” more often than not. Forgive me?
- June 6, 2019 at 7:24 pm #183475Anonymous
Nothing to forgive, but you know that. If you like it and you get inundated with proposals, good for you. Different people has different styles and different taste. Not a big deal.
- October 21, 2020 at 5:12 am #397008Anonymous
amy is right. walk on the wild side or what i like to call push the envelope. these things ain’t for everyone, but some of us are more daring than others. they make these things to be sexy and attract attention. and it works. i get lots of complements when i dress. some people dont like the attention, but i do. my male side is much on the shy side. but when i dress my wild side comes out. its fun to dress sexy. there are a few things i dont wear and that is pointy shoes and clothes with flowers on them. not for me.

Aimee,
I never thought about performers (and yes, I did mention superheros in general) in my post.
And I want to apologize on behalf of your “Christian” neighbors for the flak they give you. I’m firmly in that camp, myself, and we are not all like that. The few predators who CD give us all a bad rap.

I like to wear LuLaRoe leggings but I’m a firm believer that leggings are not pants (though that is flexing recently… Lol). Anyway, I want to cover my crotch but I ALSO want to be able to wear my shorty shorts. As a plus size woman (GG, 33 years old) I have quite a bit of chub rub so the shorts alone don’t work so I like to wear them over my bright and fun leggings.
That being said, I do get comments about it from other women. They say things like “your style is so cute” or “I love your fun prints” which of course probably means they think I look a little odd. But I do not care. 🙂
- June 8, 2019 at 1:52 pm #183928Anonymous
It’s a question of context. Unless you’re in a Superhero outfit, wearing your underwear outside your tights seems foolish. But if you’re a CD, we all have something to hide “down there”, and every little bit helps.
- August 10, 2020 at 12:08 am #372559
Personally I don’t like wearing tights or pantyhose if I don’t have to I’m a bare leg girl so if I’m wearing shorts I would go bare legs
- August 10, 2020 at 1:01 am #372570
I can’t believe that you girls have forgotten ‘hotpants’ already, we all wore them over tights with platform shoes.
If I could still buy them I doubt that they would still fit, I might have to cut the legs off a pair of painters overalls.
- August 10, 2020 at 1:07 am #372572
I like the shorts over tights look myself. Works great with boots! (not a subtle look at all, though…)
- August 10, 2020 at 3:34 pm #372808
I really cant see a problem wearing tights underneath short but with a caveate, if the tights are sheer then ones legs must be close shaven.
I do this regularly and love the effect with a pair of very glossy natural tights. Normally it actually quite hard to notice that I’m wearing the tights unless the light strikes them an a certain way where the ultra gloss show. I think this then looks super sexy.
Take care girls.

It seems to be just a throwback to the 80’s when people wore gym shorts over sweat pants. Just part of the fashion carousel.

for me certainly not. I love when getting the opportunity to wear black tights under short womens denim shorts walking around the house with ballet style pumps and a lace or silk top….feel so comfortable and easy in them
- October 13, 2020 at 3:43 am #393887Anonymous
no. i think it is a pretty sexy look. i think i look good in my girl short shorts and black designer panty hoes and heels. i do it alot if im in a hurry and still want to look sexy. i think guys like the look too.
- October 13, 2020 at 5:34 pm #394281
Hi Fiona,
It might be frivolous but it can be fun too. I had always wanted to do it so I did. If it’s chilly the tights keep you warm.
Alice - October 20, 2020 at 2:25 pm #396816
I love the look! I’m anxious to go try it out right now as a matter of fact.
- October 21, 2020 at 7:42 am #397043
I wear shorts over tights when biking myself and seems acceptable at the gym as well. True it is more of a young girl fashion but really dont care what people think at times
- October 21, 2020 at 8:51 am #397060
I love to show my legs………….but when the weather is cooler, then shorts over tights keeps them warm and I still feel sexy and slutty. Pants are so yucky.
- October 24, 2020 at 7:51 pm #398262
To me it depends on what your doing and the look your going for. As Im putting together a rocker chick outfit, I have a pair of black cut off jean shorts that I put over black or nude tights with fishnets over those and knee high boots. I guess for me, its more situation dependent?
- November 4, 2020 at 6:28 am #402758
It’s pretty common. On most days, if you go out somewhere, you’ll see at least one genetic female wearing leggings under shorts. And the whole point (to me anyway) is to emulate genetic women.
- November 8, 2020 at 11:51 am #404255
I worn purple tights under a short black skort last night as a matter of fact, so it doesn’t bother me…
- November 9, 2020 at 12:35 pm #404670
I don’t think there is a problem with it.
Taylor Swift wore something similiar in her concerts, so I don’t see why not.
- November 11, 2020 at 9:10 am #405408
Nah, it’s not crazy at all. Wear what you want. Now cargo pants, those are crazy. Maybe it’s just me but when I want to wear pants I want to look nice, not like I’m planning on hitting the outback for a week.
- December 10, 2020 at 7:48 pm #416681
I like the look. A character from one of my favorite cartoons wear’s tights under shorts. I haven’t tried it myself, dreamt I did it, literally.
- December 12, 2020 at 12:43 am #417075Anonymous
Really depends I guess? On your age &,,, what or where you are/ what event is it that you’ll wear it the young/ younger tend to make & wear trends that can be different &,,,, New

Hi Fiona-Ann,
I’ve worn shorts over tights or leggings a few times this winter because it’s convenient and is a good combination here in the southwestern desert thermally speaking, but I don’t care for the look much, and avoid that combination in public.
Hugs,
Ellie

No I love it I think it’s fun and it’s flirty especially with the right shoes to go with it cute top and a warm summer day
- July 7, 2022 at 7:38 am #660913
crazy? yes. But if you have to body for it (which alas, I do not), it can be cute!
