Wearing a skirt is not inferior

[Barleymower]

A case for men wearing skirts
The author "Toke" puts a clear case to justify wearing skirts as a man and how it benefits both men and women.

I see it as a men's rights issue (and a boys' rights issue). Females can and do wear trousers, so let's have some fairness and gender equality.

The problem is that women entering traditional male spaces/behaviours (wearing pants, being in the military, being a CEO, etc) makes them "equal", but for some reason men entering traditional female spaces (wearing skirts, rearing children, being a nurse or grade school teacher, etc) makes then "less". It takes balls for men to do things that society says makes them "less".

I of course hope one day we'll get all this cow patties sorted out, but I don't see it any time soon.

I wonder sometimes if it's more deeply ingrained than we think. Social conservatism being against men's "feminization" perhaps comes from much older times..."if our men aren't manly enough, our tribe won't be able to defend itself" or something. I don't know. It sucks though.

Men and boys have the "right" to wear what they want. My experience of boys and girls is they both cry. Crying is not a female thing. Then why are boys told not to cry? I'm no expert but I would say that FLB you are right, boys are expected to protect women when they are older. Is that still true today?

I think we can do all that and wear what we want.

I think we can do all that and wear what we want.

I completely agree.

I grew up hearing Free To Be on the record player, but we all know how that turned out, it only really applies to women for most practical purposes. There were so many mixed messages around.
