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 I read what might be „about the forum” I wonder about the sentence
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.
And especially the word formerly (my italics).
I wasn't aware that the men in skirts term should no longer exist or has become outdated or whatever. I should be interested in knowing why men in skirts has become something formerly. Could anyone perhaps tell me?
When I joined this community many years ago, it was called Tom's Cafe and it was exclusively about men in skirts. Following Tom's untimely death, it was renamed skirtcafe.org and it seems to have expanded its scope to include kilts, sarongs, skorts and dresses and, for those who wish to, it explores other aspects of gender.
I don't know if that sheds any light on the topic for you.
Thank you, Stu. This means that in principle the term Men-in-skirts has not been somehow officially abandoned, only here due to including stuff from what once was Chris' Atrium?
