I am really sorry for you crfriend. I know there are many problems in this world, but to take your view and give up on human life is really hard. My wife and I have produced two wonderful children who are now grown up and taking their place in the world. Rather than hatred, I have love from two won...

I'm old school. I understand what this thread is discussing but, when I was growing up, pride meant something totally different. A person took pride in their work or achievements. A person took pride in their community, family. Parents were proud of their children's achievements, graduating High Sc...

So, please remember this - YOU are the first - and best - teacher and role model for your children. I thank the gods daily that I have no progeny. I glimpsed what this place was going to become in the late 1970s and swore I would never have children. I do not believe I could take the hatred of a ch...

Indeed Moon, it's the way we behave when interacting with others that wins hearts and minds. Be open, honest, generous when one can be, and offer no apologies save for when you've actually wronged another accidentally.

As does the moderation staff. Trust me on that count.

I think Uncle Al missed the whole point of the show. In regenerating the Doctor should have gone into Jodie Whittaker’s clothes, The new doctor body in the clothes of the old doctor. Total logic in the story. Man doctor in woman doctors's clothes. I don't know how familiar Al is with the premise of...

Wear what you want. That's the whole point. That's why we're trying to break down the barriers, the stereotypes, and the disdain. What you wear should not really be a signifier of what you are; it should reflect how you feel in the moment. Thus, the simple act of shoving both legs down one pipe shou...

I can see why a number of former SkirtCafe regulars have given up and gone elsewhere when the resident mods keep criticising the members. I'm becoming tired of the constant negativity on the site. Actually, this is just the "resident mods" getting tired of having anti-skirt rhetoric parro...

I get these things, too, but I'm fortunate is that I don't get pain or nausea -- just the vision disturbances. I've had them since I was in my 20s, and they're usually tripped by stress.

Indeed. That stated tactic is just one of the ways that men self-police and hold all possible progress back. It needs to stop. Sadly, humiliation is an extremely effective form of control over people.

Shouting or using capitals is unproductive and alienates those who are on your.side. Then why did you stop just one iota away from invoking Deuteronomy on us? You might as well have, because you used all the coded language therein that is only used to bash men and never even so much as scold women....

Right there we see the dragon we're trying to slay. Who else sees it?

I think I'm qualified to address Spiriou's comment as I've been in both situations. The first one was where the desire to wear skirts finally "caught up with me" after years and I gave it a try, much to the surprise of my (now) late ex-. The net result of that, whilst her mind was still in...

If you find the ManBox constraining, then there are two options: (1) try to make the box bigger; (2) step outside the box. Which you choose is up to you: clearly a lot of people here are much happier with option (1). It might be better if you didn't have to choose - if it was generally accepted tha...

But. He identifies as non binary, confirming yet one more time that skirts are not for straight hetero guys. Am I wrong in thinking that the skirt is becoming a non-binary flag? How many of the men at the Met Gala wearing skirts were non-binary, is that a bad thing? I'm afraid this is really becomi...
