Not sure if this would come under news clippings but

Having looked on Twitter and used its search function http://search.twitter.com/ - I have found that there are quite a few sightings of men in skirts.
Here is the search terms I use. http://search.twitter.com/search?q=man+skirt
Most of the tweets that report a sighting of a man in a skirt are non-judgemental, some are positive, some negative. (Bear in mind that it is solely searching for any tweets that contain the search terms, so you get everything!)
What I take from it is that there are many more men going out there and wearing skirts than just those of us that post here. Hopefully this is a good sign that it is slightly more mainstream than we believe ourselves.
I hope that some guys that read the forums, maybe don't post themselves, and are still a little afraid of going out there and doing it can read through these tweets and perhaps realise that being a man in a skirt is no big deal to the vast majority of people out there that don't have the same interest in skirt-wearing as we do.
