Perhaps the pendulum is just swinging back from Capri shorts, and this cute boy is just "riding the wave"? "Capri shorts fall between mid-calf and the knee. They look like a mix of shorts and pants. Capri shorts became popular with teenage boys several years ago due to a combination of fashion trends and cultural influences. The 2000s saw a resurgence of 1950s and 60s styles, including Capri pants, which were adapted for boys and men. This revival was also fueled by their association with popular culture figures and the desire to break away from traditional notions of masculinity associated with longer trousers. Here's a more detailed look: Retro Revival: The early 2000s saw a strong trend of reviving styles from the 1950s and 1960s, including Capri pants, which were originally popularized by Audrey Hepburn and other fashion icons.

I also like his "spread the legs, hands on the thighs" move. Quite inviting! And then when he throws his legs wide apart! Quite uninhibited... Then, at the end? Hugging his mom? Hmm... I wonder if he got any flak about that at school the next day? Remember how boys always used to get so upset when Mom kissed them or walked them to the school steps, while the other kids watched? How gross! M. So Gen-Alpha seems to have come a long way--at least, according to what we see here. I wonder what they think of pedos wanting to suck them off?
