I believe that the gay/bisexual/transgender assumption is due to skirts being associated almost entirely with females. But that is narrow minded aspect of Western civilization...look at traditional mens wear of other cultures.

It occurred to me that if skirts are associated almost entirely with females, then they must be symbols of the feminine. Hence, the gay assumption. What isn't evaluated are skirts as garments, and what advantages such may offer men.

I have absolutely no personal experience with this, but my understanding is that gay men are mostly attracted to men who look like men, and not so much to men who look like women.

This means that in a gay relationship, it makes no sense to ask, "Who's the woman?" because the answer is usually, "Neither. We both like men."

So while a man wearing a skirt may be unconventional, that doesn't mean he's gay.

Comfort again-the hottest days of the year. Below the waist even shorts provide an effective layer of insulation.

For the same reason women wear pants, suits, tuxedos, shirts, sneakers etc.

How does it feel to wear a skirt?

As if you wore nothing at all, at least until you feel the hem.

No, I don't, I am single and since I wear skirts, I am even more picky in that perspective.

How do people on the street react when you wear a skirt?

Either they giggle behind my back or remain ignorant, which I prefer.

What kind of skirts are you wearing and why?

I wear any kinda kilt except the traditional one and start wearing a men skirt in a few weeks, cuz I don't need excuses and the traditional requires a cock-bag which looks hilarious.

- How does it feel to wear a skirt?

Exhilarating. Comforting.

- Do you have a partner? If so, how does he or she reacts when you wear a skirt?

Yes. She says she doesn't have a problem with it, but the body language (etc) says different, and has admitted that wearing in the general public does cause here to feel self conscious.

- How do people on the street react when you wear a skirt?

Mostly, they don't notice. Unfortunately most of those that do and make me as a male may stare and make behind the back comments. (I have also gotten compliments) These negative reactions, though carefully done outside of my field of vision, occasionally to gets caught by my wife and is the stated cause of her discomfort.

- What kind of skirts are you wearing and why?

I'm willing to give just about anything a try. Due to anatomical differences, I will limit the hemline to a couple inches below the shortest our female counterparts will wear.

- Describe the perfect skirt for men... ( material, length, details etc)

Like a work of art, it is dependent on the situation, and really is in the eye of the beholder. This includes body type and environment. In other words, it really requires review on a case-by-case basis. For the moment, kilts have the lead due to their head start bucking the gender stereotype. I also wouldn't discount the ability of a decent broomstick skirt to hold its own even without the "Scottish pride" backing.

I tried above the knee skirts and dresses and it looks not so good. For me, the best are mid calf or full length skirts and dresses. For comort I do prefer a -line dresses and skirts

- Describe the perfect skirt for men... ( material, length, details etc)
it is difficult to describe the perfect skirt for men. Every men do have different styles and priorities. I think a good skirt or dress for men should figure out the masculine shape. Many men have the problem to adapt skirts and dresses to their figure, because the garments are performed for women.

I am 47 from Germany and simply a men who likes the freedom to wear dresses at any time when I like to do it
