living in the states an all there are so many different cultures and alot of people love to remember it by wearing clothes or listening to music or anything else that it really shouldnt make a difference by what you wear, i unfortunately cant wear one at work because i work in a wear house and i kinda have to go up on lifts all day and no one really wants to accidentally see my jibblets, and there concerned slightly that i would hurt myself having my legs exposed, apparently a thin piece of khaki will stop anything from damaging my legs better than just my exposed shins......i beg to differ but they're the boss...
