I'm with you all the way there. The knee-length men's shorts that fill the shops these days look ridiculous and feel all wrong. I feel swamped wearing them. No thanks. Short shorts for me, whether men's or (usually) womens. They feel great and are cool on a hot day when working. My wife sometimes comments that they are a bit short, but that's all.

Short shorts are nice.
No need for big shorts.

I wear typical 'womens' styled shorts - but I choose them because of their tailoring. I also love the look of a short with a back zip or a flared short that flares from the waist and sits up high - like an aline skirt I suppose - but shortish hemline. Very nice to wear and they're practical.

they look awesome paired with a jacket too - dress tailored shorts and a dress shoe. A neat look.

Enough about shorts though.... aren't they the devil?

I just wear a simple A-Line knee-length skirt instead of knee-length shorts.
If I'm wearing shorts they are usually mid-thigh in length, 5"-9" inseam.
