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.
Now that’s how you catch the eye of a pharaoh
Hey, we Scots were progressive that way too! Did some of our best mangling and hacking in a skirt.
Romans put up a wall so we didn’t horn in on their fashion scene.
The longer the dick, the longer the skirt.
