Men wearing skirts doesn't bother me all that much. It doesn't look pretty but I think it is a culture thing more than anything else.

I jumped over the bridge, and there was another bridge under it. But I am finally free to go that boring same way every day with dressing, I wear skirts whenever I want. Causal mostly denim or kilt style, formal pleated and dark with black pantyhose,mshirt, tie and jacket. Nowhere a bad comment, just nice small talks, thumbs up, etc.
I never will go back to just wearing pants era.

I agree, manly men can and should wearing skirts.
I do it already and I got so many nice comments, people just recognizing me and like my outfit. Using pantyhose or stockings is a requirement for my job, but that's it.
I am not running for a competition with females because men and women have their own and very unique style to rresent their personality with their ecial kind of wardrobe.

It is just wonderful when I am in public and strange pele greeting, asking where I got the skirt, how I am feeling, etc. When wearing a kilt mostly I am confronted with a stereotype question: are you Scottish or does Scotts have to wear something under.

There is an increase of men wearing skirts. It is also becoming more acceptable in our society. The thing that bothers me is why are not mothers buying them for their sons, at least their early teen boys (13 and older). This is the age when the testes are dropping into the scrotum sack. This when they are most vulnerable during the development of the male gender. As you know Cancer developes slowly, especially in that area. Parents need to aid them,, explain the risks involved and the ramifications of continuing of wear pants full time.
Wearing skirts will NOT turn them gay, that we know is genetic.
The next chapter is about younger boys. Under 13 years of age boys still think of girls as "ickey" so why not a progression similar to children's wear as they age. As babies all wear diapers, gowns and the like. As they age we change their clothing to older styles. Generally boys in pants girls in dresses. Why not add dresses to the boys wear, pants are already in the girls' wear. I have seen boys in Communion Dresses and Confirmation Dresses in some churches. I have also seen some in white Easter Dresses. All of these boys were under 13. They behaved just as typical boys do with the mothers admonishing them to stay clean. Just as if they were in a suit.

robert, I think we learned already that clothes are not changing any sexual orientation. It is just stupid to believe some kind of crap.
More men wearing skirts now, it is a slow movement, but it moves on. Since two years skirts on mainstream now, the reaction is still low, but more men waking up when they hear or read what causes actually testicle and prostate cancer.
Men just looking better in skirted garments than in pants, skirts are much more comfortable... we have just to learn to see real perspectives.

The biggest drawback is that most men fear change and the ridicule associated with men wearing any sort of womens clothing. Although skirts are not a "woman" garment, but are traditionally mens' wear. Look to the roman and greek soldiers, look to the celtic region, the irish, scottish and english have all worn some sort of skirt or dress. In africa the various tribes (men)wear a dress like garment. The same can be said for parts of asia.
Women didn't make pants a regular part of their fashion until WW2 when they went to work in Americas' factories.
Like I said earlier men need to liberated from one style of dress, especially in this country. Wearing a skirt or a dress will NOT turn you gay. It will Not cause changes in your physical anatomy.

Nothing wrong with skirts for men. They are still manly with almost all style of skirts.
If men men would going to touch the feminine side in them they just have to wear blue-jeans like almost all girls.
The skirt for manly men is in.

2010-02-09T07:53:12.303-05:00

There is much to do about this issue. It has spanned from allowing it inschools to womens blogs. It is being discussed at teens, adults, males and females websites, especially since Nov. 2009. H & M Fashions have even negoitiated with several sporting goods stores or outlets to carry their line of UTILIKILTS. I support men and boys wearing skirts, skorts and kilts. If for no other reason then medical. In societies, it has been discovered, that there is an increased rate of testicular and prostrate cancers. I don't remember the universities that made the studies aforementioned. I can tell you this however that I am 59 yrs of age and my doctor has told me that I have the virility of an average 40 yr. old male. I think this may be because I've worn skirts since I was 11 yrs of age. I've also noticed that I perspire less down there and have never had the rashes associated with the region mentioned (jock itch). So there are benefits associated with it.

Skirts for men aren't like trousers for women for that the skirts in history were both a women's and men's garment, trousers were made only for men. It's not emancipation but return to the type of clothes better to our anatomy. Skirts are comfortable, trousers aren't. Also trousers cause some serious medical problems (prostate cancer and infertility for example). Thus I say: it's time to change our thinking about skirts for men, not only for aesthetical and fashion causes. In fact, men in skirt with full men's outfit can be still manly (look Scotts, and many men in skirts with swords in the films).

Yes, get comfortable, guys. Not just that most men looking very good in skirts, it is about equality.
I think it is time to stop this double standards, men can not do or wear what women can. Not so long ago men knew what they want to wear, today the public telling them what to do and wear. Are these really this men we know and what we are expecting?
I don't think so. Men just wear what you like, be a manly, means "real" man and go skirted.....'Jumpf off the bridge'.

Really surprising that skirts to men aren't like pants to women. Wear what you want whenever you wish. They are comfortable. My wife wife & daughters wear pants almost to the exclusion of skirts & dresses. I tried a skirt one hot summer day many years ago when one remarked that it was too bad that I couldn't wear a skirt like they do since it was so much more comfortable whenever the temperature & humidity are approaching 100%. On that dare I initiated myself to a few snickers. A skirt is MUCH more comfortable if you are a biological male. Trust me on that one. Never looked back. My wife has maybe two skirts in a closet of pants whereas I have three pairs of pants isolated in a closet filled with dresses & skirts. Never regretted the change.

When informed that skirts & dresses are women clothing it always seem to be said by a women who is wearing pants. If skirts & dresses are women's clothing, why aren't women wearing them? Duh!

Men really don't have to wear pants since they are clearly no longer a garment identified as belonging to the male gender.

Guys just need to emancipate themselves & get comfortable.
