Builders in frocks

I love it. It gives you far more freedom.

There could be a whole new life beckoning for Adam.

Hilarious good for them
I was listening to a radio program about the first Male nail bar to open one man interviewed said ‘ I m a builder and if I bang my nail and it goes black I get them to fix me a false one on top ‘ they were talking about sparkles and colours etc and I didn’t get the impression they were all gay ?

Good for them the pics are hilarious ?

Good for them. Women have always had the choice of dressing in whichever way they liked - its time men had the same options.

I do hope Adam and his friends are wearing suitable underwear so as not to show a VPL

Wonderful good for them must have been a really fun day at work.

Good for them! Making a stand and not skirting around the issue

Sorry, couldn’t resist it

Brilliant, totally agree stella1949

Excellent idea. What about kilts? And arab robes?

Love it! Great idea.

? excellent!

Good for them. My son works in an office at eon and has to wear a shirt and smart trousers. He and some of the other men at work asked if they could wear shorts (Chino-type ones, which are knee length). They were told no. The employees there do not deal with the public, don't see anyone face-to-face at all, and are not on view (the department is on the 5th floor). It's really not fair at all.

JustALaugh, looks like here's the solution...if they dare!

Well done these guys...brilliant. I remember a young lad doing the same at school as they could not wear shorts in the hot weather...

Good for them...although got to say wouldn't want the view from the bottom of the scaffolding lol.
Boys in general are more in touch with their feminine side, including one of my son's who has his eyebrows waxed (saying that they can be quite thick and bushy without)
My dad would spin in his grave....in his day 'men were men'

What a great way to deal with a silly problem, laugh and enjoy life when you can. Good job this wasn't in the DM where it would no doubt have been taken as a serious issue, covered in at least three separate articles.

Could be the solution to the workman’s bum situations ??

'Women have always had the choice of dressing in whichever way they liked'. No, they really have not.

Actually, if shorts are banned for male workers then they ought to turn up in kilts. These cannot be banned, especially in the UK, as the ban on wearing kilts, highland dress or clan tartan that came into force after the Highland massacres was repealed ages ago. Nowadays, quite a lot of younger Scotsmen wear kilts in other kinds of cloth than a clan tartan.

Frankly, I wouldn't worry about the builders' underwear if they are in skirts - anything is better than the inelegantly named butt crack displayed by so many men in trousers if they bend over or kneel down.

From my point of view there is nothing more off putting than hairy legs ? showing beneath a skirt or dress.

Just read the link, did make me laugh, think that’s great.
Still got to wear the boots though.

Did one wear trainers ?

They looked amusing but I wouldn’t have allowed it.
