You wear shorts in gymnastics because on bars you can hurt your hips so it does not hurt as much. Also if you fall on your butt it won't hurt as much. You also need shorts because you kind of feel nakid with out shorts.

In gymnastics, unless you are in a younger class, the girls wear leotards, which look like a one piece bathing suit. At compitions, girls where long sleved leotards apposed to the spagetti strapped normal ones for practice. Boys where even from a younger age, shorts and a t-shirt to practice. For compititions, they wear a leotard with short shorts, but wear underwear, unlike girls.
