Explanation: Romans wore tunics, which generally did not reach the knees. Flexible and breathable! This includes the Roman Legions. Trousers were denigrated as 'barbarian', though Legions in northern areas and the later Empire would begin to wear them regularly.
Julius Caesar's right-hand man, Mark Antony, was noted as wearing scandalously short tunics to show off his muscular legs. Ooh la la!
Further explanations: Who are we to tell Romans on the battlefield that they can't look cute.
Well, it must have become impractical after they started to invade cold countries... But it didn't seem to have stopped them.
Also, I can't tell them anything.
I mean, it gets pretty cold in Scotland and kilts are a thing there.
Outrageous. And tell, could this Marcantonio crush watermelons with his thighs?
Mark Antony was considered something of an crude boor, yet he managed to snag the incredibly intelligent, cultured, powerful, and beautiful Queen Cleopatra in what was an apparently happy marriage.
So I must assume yes, his thighs were incredible
Considered crude. So.. like it seems Cleopatra likes playas. Figures.
Now that's how you catch the eye of a pharaoh

The longer the dick, the longer the skirt.
