Why on the gods' green Earth do we need to continually shoot ourselves in the feet over this. For the average human (both male and female), "GNC" == "queer". Full stop. We need to de-gender the skirt in order for it to catch on with the mainstream. This is not difficult to understand.
Please stop harping on this matter. (Unless you have another axe to grind that we may not be aware of -- and we're aware of a couple already.)

Did we defender men's shirts and men's underwear? A lot of women still wear them with the DGAF attitude. They are still men's shirts and men's underwear.

It just happened.
Skirts' were first then jeans then tops and not 90% of my clothing it womens.
On occasion I might accidently wear all men's wear, but that would be rare now.

We're not just several standard-deviations from the middle of the curve, where we are
there is no curve. We're trying to shift the entire curve for guys, or at least expand the plotting area. It'll happen eventually, but it's going to happen one guy at a time who realizes that "here NOT be dragons" when he gets off the beaten path of (what passes for) "male 'fashion'".
Towards the masculine end of the bell curve...I would say expanding the plotting area. Or to put it another way, enlarging the man box.
The part that would be expanded includes kilting; the question is whether or not other skirted designs could be added here.
Free styling is another endeavor, and the feminine part of the curves offers far more variety at present

You did not create the "word blunder" Carl, the writer was jamie001 and he
has been 'creating' several "word blunders" lately.

This is the perfect example of what it
means to PROOF-READ your posts 
Carl accepted blame for something
HE DIDN'T DO
Are you willing to do the same

I will accept the blame, and then pass the blame to my stupid auto correct spell checker.

I don't care beans about this GNC junk. I go by my name of "John" and I have a masculine voice. If someone thinks I'm a woman it's no big deal. I prefer to be addressed as "Sir" but if I am addressed as "Ma'am", it's not the end of the world. I do have a simple request: just don't address me with that endearing address from drill sergeants of "Maggot".

I am constantly addressed as ma’am and it is fine with me. Sometimes I do look like a girly girl.

I almost always have a girly girl look with my beyond shoulder length hair and a bust, along with wearing a dress.
Sometimes when I'm addressed as "Ma'am" and then I speak I might get a reply as "Oh, sorry Sir".
