I am now an uptight grownup

This summer short shorts have been causing a visceral reaction in me. I can’t remember ever in my life having been grossed out by their mere presence, but now it happens  every time I see them. Maybe it’s because short shorts wearers also tend to be the kind of women who have always intimidated me and made me feel like I don’t know how to be female? You know, the ones who have deep tans, lots of make up, long thick hair and wear shirts from Victoria’s Secret that say ‘Pink’ on them. They go to the bathroom together, call each other to find out what they’re going to wear backyard cookouts or dinner and drinks with friends and world full of other rules that all females abide by but that I never learned. Or maybe I’m just an uptight grownup.
