Who wears short shorts? Apparently Thompson Rivers University Professor Mohd Abdullah. The computer science and yoga instructor at a British Columbia University is being asked to wear longer shorts after being warned for wearing short shorts..
The 48 year-old Abdullah feels like he’s being attacked unfairly because he’s an elderly male. “I think it is discriminating and at the same time, I think it is a double standard.”
I’m sure this type of dress code wouldn’t have mattered back in the 70’s and 80’s, but today long shorts are in. From the pictures it does look like his shorts are well, pretty short, but I don’t think this man is doing it on purpose. Give the poor guy a break, he just wants to be comfortable.

That guy is still stuck in the 70's or 80's - c'mon; it's 2009, and men favor those Bermuda-length shorts while exercising! Speaking of which, I favor them highly all summer.

You might want to work on getting your facts straight before posting an article-- consider reading the source article a few times until the phrases make some sense. :-)

Get your facts straight before posting stolen news on your two bit blog. 1. Thompson Rivers is located in Kamloops British Columbia 2. Brink of termination... how can you be fired while working out? He teaches computer science and was asked politely to wear longer, less revealing clothing while in the gym. Also...Mohd Abdullah does not sleep. He waits...
