men in skirts t shirt idea

Post by timemeddler »

Has anyone made a t shirt for men in skirts? It's not to hard to have one made or do it yourself. I was thinking something humorous, here's a few ideas.

Latest fashion Trend

women stole menswear
So I'm evening the Score

men+skirt (does not equal sign here) weird pronouns
Or lgbtq crap

The romans though pants were gay.

I'm mostly looking for humorous fun ideas, does anyone have anymore?

"Only barbarians wear trousers!"
"Grow a pair. Give skirts a chance!"
and, of course, "You laugh because I'm 'different'. I laugh because you're all the same!"

I've thought about it and like the idea, but it feels too confrontational.

Sorry, but it’s a bit offensive and invalidating.

I would see something like "Why is a skirt better for love? You don't waste time removing it!". But written in a better way, something short (not necessarily the skirt) and obvious about practical side for making love with a woman, without entering perversion.

Or for humour, something like "I wasn't totally awake when dressing up, but am too lazy to try again"

I dunno, none of the examples so far have really struck me as wearable for one reason or another. I do like "Only barbarians wear trousers!" as there's a historical bent to it, and it doesn't put anyone down or marginalize anyone.

My question: what good would wearing something like this do? Is it to make the wearer comfortable? Is it to send a message to those around us ("society")? Is it to answer the questions we think people have in their heads?

Don't get me wrong - I like poking fun (at myself), and have quite a few ironic graphic t-shirts. I just think calling out the skirt is counterproductive if the idea is to normalize skirt-wearing for men.

Or, on the serious side: "This is an act of commission. I dressed this way on purpose!"

That one's quite clever - pointing out the double-standard without denigrating anyone.

Brilliant!
There is no such thing as a normal person, only someone you don't know very well yet.
