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.
Discussion of fashion elements and looks that are traditionally considered somewhat "femme" but are presented in a masculine context. This is NOT about transvestism or crossdressing.

No, you don't, lots of chat, food, interaction between males and females like there is at any dance. Lots of seats too...Weary dancers have to sit somewhere between dances.
I had to remove this signature as it was being used on Twitter. This is my OPINION, you NEEDN'T AGREE.

A skirt is, in my mind, is resourcefulness. If it's there on a hanger in a store waiting for someone to buy and use, then why does it have to be a woman who takes advantage of it? This is what folk should be reasoning...a skirt is designed for wearing, and its role in segregating genders is outdated tosh. Bad vibes could only come from those who can't understand this.
Your post is an example of what impresses me about this board, Mugman -- the people on it who, calmly and logically, are going about in clothes they like, and are thereby gradually changing people's perceptions. Since trousers no longer segregate the genders, the skirt, as you say, ought not to do so either. It seems to me that if men who want to wear skirts/ kilts just keep wearing them, eventually the skirt won't be a gender-divide at all.
