Language for Men's Skirts and Skirted Men
Language for Men's Skirts and Skirted Men
I have a couple recent articles on the language some people use in our space, and potential terms that could be used:
What Do You Call a Man in a Skirt? Every Term, Explained.
A Gentleman’s Guide to Skirt Euphemisms
The latter is a bit tongue-in-cheek, but (I think) also includes some useful terms.
I'm curious if anyone uses their own terms, or if one in the lists resonates.

I am gender non-conforming and somewhat effeminate and proud of it!

This sums it up as far as I am concerned.
No one asks women in pants if they're crossdressers. But when a man wears a skirt, people reach for words.

Sounds like something worn by a BBC directoire.
Jokes aside, it doesn't need more words.
A skirt is still a skirt regardless of who wears it.
