Men and Boys' Shorts Lengths and Activity

Looking for the old results?
There has been some discussion regarding the lengths of shorts preferred in other polls. However, I believe that men and boys may prefer different lengths and types of shorts for difference activities. This poll breaks it down according to activity. If you are a male, then answer according to your preference of what you like to wear. If you are a female, then answer according to what you like to see.
