Hello - My introduction...

[tiberius2209]

Hello all members,

I'm a 44-year old male living in Bournemouth, Dorset and support the ambitions of men who like (or would like) to wear skirts. I've been doing it since I was a child, although my career-choice dictates that I should be seen as 'morally incorruptible', therefore I wear trousers most of the time. My skirt-wearing is reserved mainly for indoors, but occasionally when attending functions, which is when I select one of my kilts and the associated accoutrements. Though I am not Scottish as such, my mother and wife are, and they love to see me wearing my kilt.

I came across this forum whilst conducting some private research in egyptian, roman and greek male skirt designs, (I design and make my own outfits to wear around the house). After randomly reading some of the posts I sensed a connection with the purpose of this site and it assures me that there are like-minded people who share my views and opinions. I shall look forward to participating whenever I feel it necessary to do so.

(With regard to my username, it's one that my wife chose for me!)

Greetings Tiberius, and welcome!

I understand the conflict between professional status and a desire to wear stuff that's more comfortable than trousers, but also am an example of someone who has successfully made it over that hump and now wear skirts at work more often than trousers. I'm sure somebody would like to flog me for this assertion, but I have never seen any prohibition whatsoever on a non-Scot wearing a kilt. Not a one -- which is a good thing, mind, because kilts can look positively smashing!

Your method of arrival is interesting; the search terms you used online must have been "unique" to wind up with pointers to our little part of the world, and with that I shall repeat my welcome.

Cheers!

Hi and welcome,

If you are at liberty, can you tell us your occupation. I completely understand your predicament. As Christian minister, I myself find it difficult to deal with some of the ignorances of confessed puritanical brethren. Although, I am strongly fundamental in my belief, I believe God has never condemed the skirt for men, rather this trouser tyranny concept is more man self righteousness. Men must wear pants, women wear skirt ideaology is ignorance. welcome to the site.

I wonder when christians began wearing trousers under their robes. I'm sure they did not in the middle ages.

Martin said:I wonder when christians began wearing trousers under their robes. I'm sure they did not in the middle ages.

But they did...anyone that rode a horse or burro at any time in the middle ages wore leggings or whatever they then called trousers ever since Roman times. The Vikings invented leather bifurcated leggings and the Romans took it as their own when they saw them during wars with the Vikings.

Lol, some of the most Holiest men never wore or owned a pair of pants

Hello there - let's just say I teach for a living (electrical engineering as it happens). Re the comments about bifurcated vikings and romans, my theory is that they only did so as a response to the climates they were in. Back in the hot, sunny med it was back o skirts and bare legs (and sandals... without socks )
