pre-18th century ballet costumes for men

I envy you Mouse in that respect. You are at that level of expertise that if they want the lights to work they let the man in skirt work his magic. Essentially there's no bulshitting what you do.
I have been in the industry since 1993 so have gained a bit of experience but that doesn't stop much lesser mortals thinking they know best and filling in the gaps with a bit of bullcrap. If I wore a skirt I would undermine myself as soon as I walked in.

Moonshadow Life is slightly different in the UK but not a great deal. LGBTQ is well protected along with women's rights (men it seems don't have any rights). MIS do not belong to LGBT or women's groups so would be left with the men. They in turn would look at each and say "don't look at me". Within seconds you are going to be ON YOUR OWN. eek

So like you I keep my work life and my life separate.

I am fortunate that at work at least, I don't need to worry "that much" about such things. I'm only 8 years old in the company, but I now have lots of responsibilities and a few projects that I manage completely alone (I don't have any team to manage and hope it stays like this). They would be embarrassed if the contract with me ends, especially now that the colleague who did train me is working half time and doesn't have the time to take back what I do if needed (he's going to retire in less than 10 years, and likely in 5-6 years). Not that they wouldn't be able to replace me, I have no illusion I'm working in a big company so they can replace me, but they would have a hard time doing it because on a first hand we're understaffed, and on a second hand one of the projects would require someone with good knowledge of C++ (rare) plus knowledge of the legacy code base at work (inexistent outside of the company).
Not that I often go skirted at work, I lack skirts making me feel masculine enough so I always chicken out at the idea of going skirted. But I started getting/making kilts or kilt-like skirts and am sometimes wearing them at work. Not as often as I would like to because I only have two (one of them being warm and we're in the summer), but already "sometimes" :-)

I mean the guys with the money accompanying the beautiful women. These men are also unlimited as to what they can afford to wear. Do any stand out? Do any impress? Some have not tried, obviously. All are a boring. Most of the women are in a totally different class to the men.

So my point is, the difference between an ordinary well dressed guy, and a very wealthy, well connected guy, seen from a video is not apparent.

After the Great Renunciation, I believe that all males, regardless of class, became stuck in the most boring clothes in the world. That includes traditional trouser suits, which manage to appear both formal and dull.

I'm the same. I sharply divide my life into work and not-work. I conform at work. Work is already too stressful; its not worth while to add such a complication.

I find that is easier not to conform at work, I'm there to do my job, and I am good, polite and effective at it, no one is going to question (or has'nt in the last two years) me when I do their xrays in a (scrubs)dress, nor has anyone said anything when I show up at the locker room in a skirt.

Been to several meetings in my scrubs too, with hospital management and out of town consultants.

I am reluctant to wear a skirt around my local town, its a tiny town and I'm afraid of might cause kids to bully my daughter, so shorts or trousers if its not cold enough to hide under a long coat. When she is a little older it probably wont matter though.
