Post by Uncle Al »

This young man really tells it like it is :D

Should Men Wear Skirts?

I applaud him for his tenacity and 'Go-For-It' attitude :D
"Kids" like him will help NORMALIZE men wearing skirts :!:

Sorry Al
He lost me at "historical precedent", we have to go with the here and now not the middle ages.
Should men wear Skirts?
No, but they should have the choice without let or hindrance without having to justify themselves to anyone.
Just saying.

Steve,
Did you watch the entire clip :?:
If you did, you would've found him bringing the skirt back for men.
He's promoting skirts for men.

A simple, reasoned approach to choice. I like it is not loaded with any loaded pro's or con's -- in fact his approach de-escalates controversy.

I liked it. Simple, yet well explained. Though preaching to the choir here of course :)

Glad to have this presentation, I agree completely, but I'm a bit disappointed
in the video itself. This is a "talking head" from start to finish, with a few still
snapshots, from news sources, off to the side, and shown way too briefly.
A documentary video should have lots of living, breathing examples. He could
show more of himself in real life, interview fellow skirt-wearers (and the people
they live with), interview fashion designers and fashion columnists, people who
sell skirts, etc., etc.
Instead we see only his head. That gets boring. If we can hear him as a voice-over,
we don't need to see him, except by way of introduction. His constant waving of
hands in front of the camera is something they teach television reporters, but it's
annoying and distracting.
Bottom line: A-plus for choice of subject, C-minus for presentation.
