introduction
I have been a member of this forum for some time, but have not felt able to write my introduction. Until now!
I am happy to be a skirt-wearer, & am proud of what I have been able to achieve.
I wear a skirt for two reasons: The first is that I genuinely feel more comfortable in a skirt than in trousers. The second is that I feel I should make the most of the opportunity to expand my wardrobe, & make choices beyond what is currently accepted for men. So, in a nutshell: I'm pushing boundaries, because I want to & because I can!
Essentially, I am a bloke in a skirt, not a cross-dresser. I do not have the physique to pass as a woman, no matter how hard I might try. Nor am I interested in the hair, makeup & other feminine attributes.
What I do have is, though, is the confidence to allow myself to be seen in public in a skirt, without worrying unnecessarily what people think. There is a time & a place for wearing a skirt, & I expect to maximise the opportunity as best I can, but presenting as male, not female.
Somebody asked me recently what I thought this might lead me to. So I said that, for me, this is a journey, not a destination. And I think that sums it up quite nicely.

Welcome, andrew9620, glad to have you aboard!
Courage, conviction, nerve, verve, dash, panache, guts, nuts, balls, gall, élan, stones, whatever. Get some and get skirted.

Andrew.
Reading your few earlier posts, you have clearly been building up over the past few years. Hopefully, you will post a little more regularly, henceforth

Re: introduction
Welcome, Andrew!
Seems to me like you have exactly the right idea. Do your friends and relations agree?
