Actually, ANY human on this barren rock can wear a skirt and they actually do!
If you actually accept that any non-bifurcated garment is a "skirt", then men seem to take to them very easily indeed.
I'd hazard a guess on that basis there are more men in the world wearing skirts than we allow.
Only problem is that they just aren't dedicated followers of the Voice of Fashion.
I wear a skirt because I am me, don't need to care beyond that.
The problem is that righteous anger and indignation will have no impact on the eejits.

Granted, this may be an easier hill for me to climb as most folks in my region wouldn't call me anything other than "a man" even if I asked them not to.
So you’re saying they would consider you not to be manly but would never allow you in the bathrooms used by their women? Not that you’re trans but using their duplicity that no man would wear a dress yet youve expertly pointed out that they believe in a binary gender system.

All males should stop worrying about being manly and allow themselves to be feminine. It is the first step to accepting ourselves and being at peace when wearing feminine garments. There is nothing to be gained from worrying about appearing manly.

All males and females should stop worrying.

And all males and females should stop fretting over matters that are none of their business.

Imagine a world.... just think of it. *sits back, grins, exhales slowly* 8)

I'm with you on that. If only it were that easy. I'm naturally a worrier.

I know what you mean, we all worry from time to time.

But it's the endeavor to not worry that yields its own rewards.

We don't need to be feminine to wear our own clothes.

HI Moon,
Sounds like an awfully good title for a song?
As for clothes, we don't have to be much more than alive to do that.
Another song Don't Worry, Be Happy!
How about, "I am what I am"?

Most don’t know of the fourth that we do here, that some men wear for comfort/fashion.
The fifth reason...The novelty! Trying skirts as an adult. Trying a garment that is fundamentally different from what you have worn before.

There is a comments section, but there are no comments that I can see.

Excellent point! Guess I thought if that as the fashion aspect but I like your view better. Wearing just for fun. What an oddly amazing concept.
