Skirt Cafe is an on-line community dedicated to exploring, promoting and advocating skirts and kilts as a fashion choice for men, formerly known as men in skirts. We do this in the context of men's fashion freedom --- an expansion of choices beyond those commonly available for men to include kilts, skirts and other garments. We recognize a diversity of styles our members feel comfortable wearing, and do not exclude any potential choices. Continuing dialog on gender is encouraged in the context of fashion freedom for men. See here for more details.

When asked 'Why the Kilt?'
I respond-The why is F.T.H.O.I. (For The H--- Of It)
Visible panty lines, for one. And I've seen reports that a lot of women worry about leakage or staining, But it's true there appear to be no reliable statistics on this.
Courage, conviction, nerve, verve, dash, panache, guts, nuts, balls, gall, élan, stones, whatever. Get some and get skirted.

Oh, not all. If you google questions like, "How many women wear panties?" or, "How many women go commando?" you find responses by women of both persuasions. And I did get flashed a couple of months ago at an outdoor restaurant.
I just find it interesting that many women seem to find men wearing kilts "regimental" interesting, but don't go that way themselves.

I have a couple of times been "frisked" at the airport check in whilst wearing a 17" khaki cargo skirt - (I had underwear on BTW). No comments were made the first time - he just ran his hands round the edge of the hem.
The second time (by chance it was the same fellow) he gave me a broad smile... before frisking me again.
(BTW - I have a pacemaker so cannot go through the metal detector and need to be physically checked each time - however, the new full body scanners dispense with that - not sure I am pleased at that development or not )

Are those still in use? I thought they'd been consigned to the scrap heap.
Have fun,

As I'm all skirts all the time, I'm always wearing one when I fly. Once, I had a TSA guy having me position my legs this way and that - obviously looking for a thigh holster or somesuch (Below the knee suede skirt), I finally told him "You know, its all PG-13 rated under this thing, just lift it up and look!". He was all "You may proceed, sir." after that!

It's hard to imagine they hassle women that way. Or do they?

Ian:
The full body scan machines are or will be removed when a replacement is available.
I liked the full scan machines a lot better but there were operational drawbacks
in that it took about 15 seconds to process each passenger. The old style would
allow maybe twice as many checks in the same time but allow some plastic weapons
to pass undetected. The full scan machines were a bit more thorough and less
invasive than the physical check.
Solution would be to let everyone fly with the "Emperor's New Wardrobe" (NAKED!).
Don't let RyanAir in your country hear about this they would want to charge a FEE ! LOL
