Well, there are two reasons for that.  First, Batman don&#8217;t need to accept your spatial orientation.  Batman does what Batman wants.<\/p>\n<p>Second, this arrangement allows easy reading of the shorts by the wearer, which is an often overlooked feature in modern clothing.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/willz.org\/hosted\/blog\/20151227_batman_shorts\/IMG_0207.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/willz.org\/hosted\/blog\/20151227_batman_shorts\/IMG_0207_small.JPG\" alt=\"Batman shorts\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>See?
