Yes, I know summertime is hot and you want to be as comfortable as possible, but the rest of us would like to be comfortable in your presence (I hate cringing at the sight of another person, but if tempted I will instinctively show my disdain).
Don't get me wrong, there are times and places where it's totally appropriate to show lots of skin--like the beach, the pool, on a boat, at a water park, the strip club or in the privacy of your own home. But trust me, when John Q. Public is eating at a restaurant, shopping or just going for a walk in the park, he/she does not want to see your ass crack, butt cheeks, your dunlap stomach and especially not your junk. I offer as evidence the following photos:

Guys, what is with you taking off your shirts in public places? And wearing low slung pants that show off your plumber assets? This gets old even on the sexiest of men; it's trashy not classy.

Ladies, we can be the worst offenders of all (recall the Britney Spears no panties money shots?). Tell me, what is the point of wearing a skirt, skort or shorts so skimpy in length that your butt cheeks hang out? While some men may enjoy this look other women generally think it's tacky.
I believe you can show some skin and still look classy, just don't show all of it at once. And if you're not sure how to do that, just follow this rule--anything that looks like it might end up on someone's Flickr account as a "Fashion Faux Pas"--don't do that!
What do you think?
