I can wear a dress to work and nobody criticizes me. I’d be really sad if I had to wear pants all the time, they’re just not as comfortable. Let’s normalize pretty dresses for dudes!

I've almost stopped wearing shorts completely. Except for swimming. I now wear UPF sun protected pants and sun hoodies most of the time outside. Hate sunscreen but hate being burned more. I've watched my dad get a lot of potentially cancerous moles removed. I'm trying to prevent that

What is a sun hoodie? Sounds like my cup of tea.

You might want to check out Korean and Japanese sunscreen brands, they tend to be inexpensive and feel a lot more like nice lotion than the sticky filmy stuff we’re used to. Especially if you don’t need waterproof sunscreen.

Hope you manage to dodge those rays, one way or another!
