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.
or in more modern times, women in pants and suits will never be a thing
Actually in the UK trousers is the most commonly used term even today. there are a lot of words and phrases that though common on both continents, are used differently on each.

Why should I hide them?
That dovetails nicely with the age-old wisdom of, "If you've got it, flaunt it!"
After much consternation on the notion of skirts -- especially miniskirts -- my current lady-friend admitted one time, "You know, you really do have great legs!" Needless to say I grinned widely at her, and quietly said, "I know. 'Tis nice of you to notice.

Personally I would not wear anything like that because it is drawing attention to something that I like to treat as normal. It seems like excusing or justifying oneself.
Perhaps something unapologetic for me:
My name is Anthony, please accept me for the person that I am.

Here's one I made earlier...
Well done, love it.
"Look at Scottish guys wearing kilts - you could look at them and laugh, but the way they carry themselves, how can you? You can wear some of the weirdest things and be cool. If you believe in it, that's what makes it cool."
I don't wear T-Shirts as outerwear but with these graphics, I would.
These phrases are some of the best I've seen.

When asked 'Why the Kilt?'
I respond-The why is F.T.H.O.I. (For The H--- Of It)
SUGGESTED T-Shirt ideas: Roman Gladiators wore skirts. Skirt worn with intent. Skirt = Comfort. Skirt = Freedom. Skirt = Ease of movement. Skirts are anatomically sensable. Skirts: Worn by men throughout history. This is a novel social fashion. Men in skirts, define moral codes. Men in skirts defeat social codes. SKIRTS improve male: Freedom, Movement and Ventilation. With high temps, high humidity--> I go skirting. Skirt? In the SUMMER I keep my boys COOL! SKIRTS, Redefine Masculinity. Why am I wearing a skirt? PERSONAL CHOICE!

There was one I saw I think it was on one of the US utility kilts sites that simply said "Because balls this big won't fit in pants"......
Each to their own...
I don't have a picture of it, but I'm sure Mr Google might reveal where it was.
I saw T-shirt something just like it on Temu.com about balls to big for pants.
I found this thread useful in giving me more ideas in making my own graphic Tees.
