It's not the looseness of your skirts, it's the thinness or softness of the fabric that lets you bulge out visibly. You could try a denim skirt, or a kilt. Or something patterned so that the bulge is not as obvious. Or a front-fastening skirt - the fly does the same job as a pattern would, even though the fly is generally shorter on a skirt than on men's trousers.
But as you say, the bulge at your crotch is visible to all and sundry when you wear trousers, so why worry about it when you are skirted? If it is no more apparent than it would be in trousers, then what is the problem? Stand in front of your mirror, and try on a few pairs of trousers and a few skirts and compare the effect. Do something you probably don't normally do - look at other men's crotches to see how much their manhood is on display. (I was on a train a few days ago. A man got on and sat down facing me, legs wide apart in that "I'm so well-hung I need masses of room for my dick" position that some men favour and which took up half of his neighbour's legroom. His jeans were pressing against his penis, and the resultant bulge was on full view to the world in general and to me in particular. Maybe he thought he looked virile; I just thought he looked uncomfortable. And inconsiderate to the passenger sitting next to him!)
That said, in a plain or lightweight skirt, your scrotal bulge can be the only thing spoiling the clean lines of the appearance of a quarter or even a half of your body, and I agree it can be a problem, particularly if there is a breeze blowing your skirt against your front. To minimise the effect, hang loose! Or whenever you fear that you have someone's attention in a bad way, speak to them, and they will immediately look at your face. If possible, sit down: I reckon it will be less noticeable than when you are standing, due to the folding of your skirt. (It has just occurred to me, but I think the reverse is true in trousers.)
Most of all, don't worry about it! 99% of people will be so surprised to see a man in a skirt that they will not notice anything else about you. And once your friends & acquaintances get used to seeing you skirted, it is unlikely that they will spend any more time looking down at your crotch than you do looking at theirs.
Keep on skirting,
