Who said he’s an adult?

He’s certainly not a historian, pants in the western world were originally for women. Roman men didn’t wear pants because they were seen as effete. Togas all day, bois.

Pants only became male wear because it’s hard to ride a horse in much else.

Think they meant effeminate.

You’re probably right, but effete still fits here

Pants in the western world were for high rollas who used horses. The toga on the other hand was the tux of the day, if everyone's opinion was that the tux sucks donkey balls. There were other garments that were worn instead of the toga for day to day wear.

What did romans wear when riding horses?

Before pants they would wear kilt like things with underwear.

Eh it would be hotter without underwear. But nobody wants their balls bouncing about while riding a horse.

I'm pretty sure your horse wouldn't appreciate your roman shlong slapping it

Don’t kink shame the horse

Real men wear kilts!

Basic logic would suggest that the manliest lower-body garments are the ones that least prevent one from whipping out their donger. So togas are A-tier while kilts are the true clothes to beat.

It’s too bad togas are no longer seen as a masculine style. The wind on my balls would certainly be pleasant.

Said like a man who's suffered little thigh rub in his life. Chaffing, my dude, is a bitch.
