Good evening, Male Skirtwearers of The World!

Post by ReverendNaughty »

Hi, folks! I'm Nate, aka the Reverend Naughty. I'm 34 from just outside St. Louis, MO. I'm pretty new to wearing skirts or kilts, only got my first one in January. I have bought an actual maxi length skirt, but I haven't quite worked up the courage to be seen in public in it. I'm working on it. Anyway, Just wanted to say Hi and thanks for having me. :)

Hi there, welcome to the cafe! I like maxi length skirts and have quite a few. I just think of them as trousers or jeans with one big leg! Not a pair of pants but a pant. I have had hardly any comments, odd looks or questions, even walking around Glasgow I get more comments when in a traditional kilts that when wearing a skirt, whether knee length or maxi length.

Good evening and welcome, Nate. I'm from Tiskilwa, about 200 miles north of you in rural Illinois. It's a conservative place, but I seem to be fully accepted wearing a skirt almost all the time. You can do it!

Looking good! Welcome, welcome, welcome!

Just curious, what made you try them?

Hi folks! Well, thanks for the warm welcome! I do genuinely appreciate it.

Anyway, so since I posted my introduction, I just said "screw it" and wore it out to a local steakhouse. So here we go-- time for more.

To be clear, I'm officially from Alton, IL-- about 25 miles from St. Louis.

What made me start thinking about them? I've been thinking out wearing skirts for years-- but due to both not having money to experiment with my clothing choices and also not having the mental fortitude to just say "F*** it" and go for it. Then I got a decent paying job, and medical insurance, and now I have both the money to experiment with, and the anti-depressants to help me think about things clearly.

So over the past few months of setting my self straight and introspection and other big college words, I finally just said "To Hell With Normal" and bought an actual skirt, and went with it. I've also got a friend working on a skirt and a shirt dress for me. I can't wait to show them to y'all when they're finished.

Welcome from the coal fields of Appalachia!

Like the others have said, you won't have any problems in public. From the looks of it your overall look seems masculine and tame. I suspect you'll be a hit everywhere you go!

From cold and windy North Texas,
:welcome:

I've been to East Alton, many years ago(circa 1968-69) when I was on a
cross-country flight, getting the time and knowledge for my pilots license.

Picked up a part for a C-175 door latch from the Cessna dealership at E. Alton.

Fun times and V E R Y long ago :D

Heck, you are surrounded by MIS it seems. I can't claim any geographical proximity--born in corn and cow country to the NW but never in a skirt there...still diaper time then; but I managed a few out of place outfits in chi-town and I guess the Stevenson still hooks you up.

Your look seems quite comfortable and fitting -- you've gotta wear a micro tutu to get much attention so don't count on much comment from your outfit; but do enjoy the comfort. ¡que tengas éxito! from Ticolandia
