Re: When you're asked why do you wear skirts?

Simply put --- "Because I can" ! Shocking statement that may or may not continue the conversation with more discussion of the serious merits of wearing the skirt. No dresses for me. That noted - I wear mostly mini kilts (14-16 inch hem length) and skirts with pleated tartan plaid patterns....

Re: Leopard print clothing Female Clothing?

I would guess that only in the movies (videos-dvds-etc.) would a male be seen wearing leopard print (skins).

And then on another token wearing leopard print clothing may be frown upon by endangered species organizations ?

Re: Tarzan the Ape Man

I remember when this was a Saturday afternoon TV show, in the mid 1950's. I was around 4 or 5 years old when it was on air. In the movie, Tarzan's "skirt" was more a loin cloth than a skirt. It didn't have a 'waist band' but a string or rope(vine?) holding it to his waist. No one ever con...

Re: Silly reasons for wearing a skirt.

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. from what I've seen on the x marks the scot t forums, a fair number of kilt wearers are really uptight about wearing anything that might ...

Re: bike riding

So we did a bit of a 10km test ride, her in a skort and me in a skirt with bike shorts underneath. Sure enough, the skirt was up around my hips before too long. It's probably ok because bike shorts are meant to be seen but it does feel strange. I'll probably just stick to the bike shorts of some so...

Re: Kilting Diversity

Kilts are a bit of a gateway drug for easing into skirting. A guy in a kilt is merely eccentric, but a guy in a skirt begs all sorts of questions. It takes a lot of self-confidence to make that leap! I do like to wear kilts but but skirts are so much easier and can be less fussy. A kilt is to a ski...

Re: Kilt length - advice requested

It makes one heck of a difference in how that mini kilt - non-regulation length is worn. Positioned on the navel waist - Actual (smallest portion of that hour glass) waist - Or if able the hip waist. The mini-kilt if worn at the navel is in extremely dangerous territory of exposure ! If worn at the ...
