I hate wearing pants. I really really do. They cling to you, in the most uncomfortable ways. They always seem to be either too tight or too loose. And don't even get me STARTED on jeans- hate hate hate them.
My legs love to be free. To feel the wind between them, to roam about as I choose. This sounds weird to most people I know. But most people aren't me. I think even if there was a way to paint on my pants I wouldn't do it. It would probably feel too gooey or sticky. Yeah, I just plain old hate pants.
My husband really did not realize this fact about me until we got married. At first, he found it quite odd. Now he's used to it, as are my kids. I find it to be most useful. EXCEPT when something happens like: Someone unexpectedly drops by and visits you. Or the UPS guy needs your signature, or your neighbor is in his backyard and can see you in yours, or when you need to finish up that load of laundry and you don't have an attached laundry room. Yes, these are the real bummers about being pantless. But mostly, it's just because other people would find it odd. I wonder if I just randomly one day answered the door pantless. What would people do? How would they respond?
One can't say with certainty what they would say. But I bet it would dramatically cut back on the amount of friends that were "in the neighborhood and thought I'd drop by." Hmmm.... maybe I should do this....

haha....I am right there with you on this one Erin. I hate pants too. The moment I walk into the house I take them off and put on what Joel refers to as my "elephant pants" because they are big and grey....but they are sooo comfortable. When the weather isn't cold I usually wear flowy skirts or shorts. Thanks for a good laugh!
might cut back on JW and Mormon missionaries coming to your door! Maybe a good idea?
