Re: What feminine items do you wear?

When I was a kid and realised that males got a limited set of clothing options compared to females, there were number of things I envied. Skirts Boots, shoes, heels, crazy things for your feet. Dresses Nails polish Earrings. These I now all have as a man in the world, so I have largely satisfied th...

Re: The boundary between skirt wearer and TV

Oh, I guess that you could put a skirt on a TV, as some people put a skirt on a bed or a motor car. Ask AI and you shall receive... 20240415105816-DEBUG-a-television-with-a-bedskirt_resized.jpg That's nice in that shade of brown!

Re: What have you discovered through wearing skirts and dresses?

That it’s enjoyable not to be invisible in public. I get more smiles than scowls and random conversation with strangers is more likely. I will second that thought. Travelling on the London tube is so much more fun these skirted days. True, no one bats an eyelid. Found a tartan pencil skirt is often...

Re: Am I Still Welcome Here?

Thanks to everyone for your kind words and encouragement. It’s very much appreciated. As new2skirts and Ray can tell you, I used to be a member of HHPlace, in the beginning, I was content to wear heels with men’s clothing, but, over time, I ditched jeans and pants for skirts, then men’s tops for wo...

Re: Sightings "in the wild"

Liverpool Street station, London. Young man, dressed in black, with a beard and what looked like a circle skirt, men's boots, walking with friends without a care in the world. No double takes from anyone. Perhaps it really is becoming a non-event :roll:

Re: Sightings "in the wild"

Saw a chap in a tartan kilt (Buchanan tartan) with white socks in Walthamstow, London. He stared at me, even though I was in an invisible denim skirt with boots. You didn't mention what type of legwear you had on, new2skirts. I suspect that given the time of year, it was continuous from your boots ...

Re: let's list why we like skirts

I like the variety of patterns, colours, lengths of skirts, more practical in hot weather, great to add a pop of colour to ones legs with a variety of stockings, an alternative to the usual black / navy / beige / denim drab of trousers. Great to see more fashion houses putting more skirts on the cat...

Re: Male anatomy

I find that any reasonably heavy fabric hides the male bulge well enough. Here is a page from my pictures thread https://www.skirtcafe.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=19498&start=285 with three skirts which I wear to the office, not a place for showing off one's bulge. The stripey and the red are st...

Re: Men's? Unisex? Or Women's?

We are seeing the expensive fashion houses have been offering skirts specifically for men for some years, but tend to have an odd look, offered at extremely high prices, aimed at wealthy metropolitans and they haven't caught on as mainstream. More recently, we have seen a few High Street brands lik...

Re: First steps in tights

Try as I might, I just don't care for tights. I actually prefer thigh-high stockings/socks held up by a garter, believe it or not. I wear leggings by themselves but not under skirts or dresses. Just a personal preference. Same here. If you get a run in a pair of thigh high stockings, you can just c...

Re: The Beskirted Man

However, I suspect the other fora are more image-based, where this is a text-based community -- and I prefer text/prose to random imagery as random imagery has no context to it. The "younger set" will gravitate to that image-based world, but in doing so will also miss out on some of the d...
