Re: Being required to wear neckties if you are male.
Seems to me that one of the problems is that partly what drives the wearing of ties is the design of men's shirts, apart from T-shirts and Sports shirts they are mostly all designed to be capable of being worn with a tie. Such that many shirts if not worn with a tie look like you have not quite fini...

Re: An unexpected comment
[quote="merlin"][quote="Milfmog"] Ain't that just so? Indeed it is. This factor is far and away my greatest problem with regard to skirt wearing. It has got nothing to do with rational argument or logical discussion. It is down to feelings, reactions and sensitivities and much as...

Re: Should we be critical
I think it would be most helpful to get constructive and helpful comments from other male skirt wearers. If the person making the comment is themselves struggling to work out a 'good skirted look' then it would be somewhat hypocritical to simply attack someone else's look. But constructive suggestio...

Re: Dresses
Dresses seem like a nice idea but I had always thought they were a step too far, as well as which, as mentioned by others, the sizing of off the peg dresses is usually wrong for men. However, I then saw this denim dress in a sale in a charity shop (you know we are in a recession when a charity shop ...

Re: How do you translate sizes given in terms of a woman's body?
Generally i wear skirts in a size 14 (that's a UK 14 not the different USA 14!) but I have found that the actual waist band on a size 14 can vary from 29 inches up to 35 inches. Partly this is because as others have pointed out these size numbers are a little imprecise and partly it depends on wheth...

Re: Sarongs
[quote="imadube"]Sarongs are great. I don't really like the way they are open up to the tied part.
Otherwise you can go for a Tube Sarong, once you have mastered the critical fold and roll technique they work well with no gape.

It's in the bag
No wonder skirt wearing by men is such a hard nut to crack if men are so concerned about using a bag. My limited knowledge of history suggests that bags are the way people of both sexes have carried their possessions for many ages. Indeed would I be right in thinking that pockets were developed from...

Half the issues raised all seemed to revolve around the fact that they were wearing a skirt or dress to short for them. ·He ...

Relaxed at %)
[quote="knickerless"]I see from the Poll so far that most of us (like myself) are in their 50's. I found that turning 50 was a huge point in my life. I will retire from work at 60 so my remaining working life is now down to single figures of years. In so many aspects of my life over the la...

Skirted in Manchester
[quote="Miket"] walked across Manchester centre ( Piccadilly Gardens) to my Hotel - no comment despite the large crowds on a Friday night. Altogether a good experience - but I wished I'd had the nerve to stay in it all day. As it happens you were not the only skirted man in Manchester on F...

London is OK for Skirts
[quote="tommiez"], I'm on the outskirts of London. I have worn skirts quite a lot in London and had no problems, I tend to wear longer length skirts 30” – 36”. Mostly the only comments I have had have been complimentary and encouraging. I have worn skirts to Government meetings in Whitehal...
