I've seen the hockey clip before. Thanks for the "Skip'sCafe" link. That's new to me. (I wonder if it is Skip Fraser?). You need to remove the apostrophe to get the link to work.

I log in (only occasionally) as "Colin" on Skirtcafe.org.


So i have heard...

This is what happens to the crotch of your trousers when you convertly wear a dress/ skirt underneath them..... Maybe the next fashion move for these guys should be from low-slung crotch to no-crotch; ie..a long skirt. Some of them you see are almost there!

I occasionally wear women's trousers to work these days because I've noticed some of them seem more tailoired & look alot sharper than mens trousers. You have to be very selective though...I don't want to end up looking like Mr Humphries on 'Are you being served'!
It's not very dangerous I know.....but shopping for them can be a bit stressful.


I've bought denim skirts no problem, and have even been to the shops in one. There's no problem, only in our minds. I had nothing but good comments. A few double takes, but apart from that, nothing.

I mean, just look @ this guy. He doesn't seem bothered...

Even though he's waiting for the AA man to get his MG going again, he's put on a brave face :mrgreen:

I don't dig the 'prison trousers' look, especially when done with jeans :hand:

It appears that some of the picture has been cut off. I think that it is someone who lives in the West Country (UK), from seeing the picture somewhere else.
A fellow musician too.

A few high profile celebs. exercising that freedom would help immensly.

How about some ideas on what can be done to achieve the goal. :think:


Men do have the freedom to wear any clothing they choose; but skirts, dresses, tights or whatever else men choose to wear will only catch on when men become as brave, strong, determined, and self confident as women are. Women are not afraid to speak and act on whatever is on their minds. One of the many side effects of that is women can wear whatever they choose. Men basically are cowards who lack self confidence, and only gain their confidence and strength by what other men and women tell them and dictate to them. One of the many side effects is that regardless of what a man truly wants to wear and would be comfortable wearing, he wears what he is told to wear because he is afraid of other people and what they might say or do. Men like to claim they are the stronger and braver sex, but in reality they are weaklings and followers who do exactly what is expected of them. While that may not have been the case in days of old, clearly today women are the stronger, braver, bolder, and more confident sex, and are enjoying the benefits.

There is nothing more comfortable than wearing a skirt or dress on a hot day or evening or to an event where the air gets hot and stuffy because of a lot of people for the space provided. Men have the same right to be this comfortable as women, if you stop talking and waiting for someone else to do it, and just put your body in clothing you believe you will be comfortable in.

Men, be as brave, bold, and self confident as women; forget about what you think other people expect and demand; be your own person, and make yourself happy and comfortable; start wearing whatever you believe you will be comfortable in now, and stop waiting for some one else to start the trend so you can wear it without fear. Gain the power and freedom of women.

Of course skirt and dress wearing does not come by itself. Hairly legs look horrible in a skirt, dress, shorts, or any other style exposing one's legs. So men, if you are going to become man enough to start wearing skirts and dresses, don't forget to shave your legs. When is the last time you saw a woman in a skirt or dress with hairly legs? And guys, not all women like to shave their legs. Chose whatever style you are comfortable with, but whatever you choose, wear it with class and style (do not cheapen it).

This is not man bashing, it is just being honest about what men have to do to enjoy the freedom and comfort women already enjoy.

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who noticed, Alf. Some people are just not very careful with "copy" and "paste" actions.

I aim to wear a sarong on the beach next time I go. It won't be for a while - snow / frost etc.
