Thigh chub rub - help!

Please help me with this! I’ve seen women out there with thighs as big or even bigger than mine and they’re out there walking around with shorts on. How?! I’ve tried that glide stick, I’ve tried coconut oil, deodorant, and other anti chafe gels but nothing works without me having to reapply constantly. I’m really tired of wearing capris all summer long! I want to wear shorts!

*edited to add: bermuda shorts look silly on me because of my thick legs. I’d really like to be able to wear regular length shorts.
