Skirt Cafe is an on-line community dedicated to exploring, promoting and advocating skirts and kilts as a fashion choice for men, formerly known as men in skirts. We do this in the context of men's fashion freedom --- an expansion of choices beyond those commonly available for men to include kilts, skirts and other garments. We recognize a diversity of styles our members feel comfortable wearing, and do not exclude any potential choices. Continuing dialog on gender is encouraged in the context of fashion freedom for men. See here for more details.

EXACTLY what goes through my mind every day at work. Every day. But I also realize that if I were wearing skirts to work I would mix it up with jeans from time to time. But it would be a 90%/10% mix.
I wear skirts/dresses to work, and for me its skirt, skirt, skirt, skirt, skirt, skirt..... always. I've only worn jeans once or twice a year in total and I've only worn jeans once to work in the last donkeys age that I can recall and it was a casual Friday last winter. But thats just me.I'll always choose a skirt over shorts too - unless they're short shorts which I wear now and again.
I've worn most skirts and dresse styles but have never tried a skirtall so I've no idea what they're like to wear.

And on that rare occasion you wore jeans (women's jeans?), did you startle or surprise your co-workers?
I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman.

Ha ha ha!
Funny thing is yes they teased me for wearing jeans! Not because they were womens jeans but because I had trousers on!!!
I do wear womens jeans - I find the fit better and not as baggy on my waist - I prefer my butt in womens jeans - I just think it fits better. As for leg length and taper I like the skinny jeans and a leg that ends above ankle so that my shoes and ankles are fully visible.
I have one pair of regular jeans but they almost never see the light of day - they must be 15 years old or so. Still in perfectly new condition.

I used to wear jeans, women’s jeans on my outings, but, I haven’t done that since April 2013 after I went all in on skirts, and later, dresses, and I haven’t looked back.

Closed isn't the word for it, more like welded shut!

"It is better to be hated for what you are than be loved for what you are not" Andre Gide: 1869 - 1951 Always be yourself because the people that matter don’t mind and the ones that mind don’t matter.
Here is my reply to this closed minded little twerp!
@Nintendo Boy Women wear what they want to why can't men?? Also clothes do not have a gender they are just cloth and are not alive. You can not tell others what to wear, you do not have the authority to tell any one anything at all. I suggest you try on a skirt and war one for the day doing whatever you normally do. There are a lot of skirt wearing men and they present as men. They are straight honest men who do not like people putting them in little boxes that are not who they are. Little men like you with tiny little minds.
Think it is too strong????

Yes. It's standard social media talk, but you will be more apt to influence people without adding the insults. Drop the last sentence.
Basically a SKIRTALL is a SHORTALL without the bifurcation (aka twin stove pipes)

"YES SKIRTING MATTERS"!
"Kilt-On" -or- as the case may be "Skirt-On" !
WHY ?
Isn't wearing a kilt enough?
Well a skirt will do in a pinch!
Make mine short and don't you dare think of pinching there !
Wearing a skirt on a trip to Brest, Minsk, Kiev and Lvov, I think I’ve never had so many literally jaw-dropping reactions as in Brest (and a bit Minsk), and people half-secretly taking pictures of me as in Lvov today. Damn it, people, just ask politely, I want to have pictures of me myself

Hmm, Russia. They like their men to be macho there. I'm not sure I'd wear a skirt there; you are braver than me.
Oh, I don't know... based on what I've seen from the reports on Russia... their culture seems similar to that of the U.S. south... prim and proper on holy days, redneck as hell around the house, and queer as a three dollar bill behind closed doors!
The locations mentioned are all in Ukraine or Belarus, not Russia. But I don't know what difference that would make to their attitudes towards skirting men.
