Re: Article in The Guardian by a man who wears skirts

It's an excellent little article. And I do agree with his suggestion for the timid: If you need a gateway drug, buy a black kilt on eBay and build your skirt collection from there. Yes, I enjoyed reading the article too, apart from these two sentences. :( "Skirt life isn’t perfect. Even in Lon...
