When you posting always the same "MEN ....." then just let us know WHY NOT? Is there a serious reason that you never wrote that [possible reason]?

If you put all pro's and con's together you find that is no fact at all that men can't wear skirts because 60% of all men on this world today!! WEAR SKIRTS (different styles) as every day wardrobe.

Hey, I'm male, wearing skirts when ever I want because I am not a coward. Sometimes it bothers me that I get only positive commences and I can't argue about. :mrgreen: I'm waiting for somebody who can discuss, but I don't like stereotype helpless stammering. Got it?

The real challenge, is to produce kilts at an affordable price for the ordinary working man. Not everyone can afford the £300+ price tag for the Scottish traditional kilt.
Some companies are trying to come closer, but there is not much below £70. What is needed is an affordable kilt that has pockets, has the public acceptability of being "a kilt", but with some of the convenience of a skirt, for everyday wear.
My denim casual kilt does come closer to convenience, but was still around £70. As my wife says:- "no woman would ever wear a garment like that - it is definitely a man's garment".
My 2 Scottish kilts are, of course, traditional Scottish garments.
God bless from Colin.

£300? !!!! :shock:

Never will pay that amount.

The weather has turned quite hot now. Yesterday, in my school job, I had a pair of black jeans - my legs were actually sweating.

Today is even hotter, so I have put on a lime green tulip skirt (with pockets btw) that I got from Dorothy Perkins - good price at £15. Take a look at the following link.

As for as the question why not? Well, here is an answer.

It is too hot to wear jeans. A skirt is always going to be cooler and more comfortable.

See, I am sensible too.

Guest “KILTY COL”, you’re a very strange person you know that, you wear skirts ok but you sound a bit too strange for me to take seriously

And to the member “KiltyCol”, what you say is true, kilts are a man’s garment which women don’t wear, and yes the prices I see on some kilts is stupid from what I’ve seen, Don't get why there so expensive really?

Davidhawkes,
You obviously understand the situation. Men want comfort to suit the season and at an affordable price.
For £300 you can wear a top quality long lasting heavy garment (Trad Scot Tartan Kilt) and keep blinkered traditionalists like Usquaningo happy, or you can use common sense and have something lighter to suit the need of the day.
Would Usquaningo and Alf suggest that ladies pay £300 for the priviledge of buying a pair of trousers?
Would they be happy to pay £300 for their wives to buy a pair of trousers, if that was the situation? Surely the price of a kilt is sex discrimination alone.

Are Usquaningo and Alf the same person?

(The Scottish kilts that I have, are presents that I have received, just in case you think that I am extravagant).

If skirts for men was a no go, nobody would waste time repeatedly fighting against it.

Again- Anyone using my name without the Avatar and details is an imposter!
God bless from Colin.

MEN DO WEAR SKIRTS. I own 12 skirts, 12 women's tops, and 7 dresses. I love them, they are so comfortable and fun to wear. I have gave away a lot of my pants and men's shirts, I don't need them. I will spend the summer wearing mini skirts or sundresses.

An update for you.

I wore my tulip skirt from about 12.30 until about 11.00 at night.

This includes going to my school (for a regular cleaning job).

No one said anything, or gave any strange looks - probably was seen directly by at least a dozen people. Just the usual hello greetings.

It was much more comfortable - although hot, there was not that awkward sweatiness.

Why not? I do not know why because I wear skirts myself in male mode without pretending to be female (not that there is anything wrong with crossdressing).

But yet...

Nothing sticks out.


Should we perhaps change this to say "Real men don't tuck"?

I know you won't hear this, but I don't care what you do or don't do. Tuck if you want. Wear a dress if you want. Go naked if you want, have fun. But don't sit there and try to tell us that you are perfectly normal and that the only reason the rest of us don't wear a skirt is because we lack the courage or some BS like that.

Do what you want, but accept who you are. If you are tucking, and wearing women's clothing, you are quite feminine, and probably ashamed of your masculinity (what little there is OF it).

In other words, tucking and skirts are 2 sides of the same coin. The reason men don't wear skirts is because they are feminine garments made for a physical structure that is different from theirs, and they have no desire to be, nor appear, feminine. And that's the same reason we don't tuck either. I'm proud of my buldge and the attention it gets me. It's occasionally uncomfortable enough as it is with both it's size and the size of my thighs, I'm forever pulling it out, trying to stuff it in would be extremely painful, and the minute I tried to move or sit, it would be injury inducing.

Furthermore, any time I saw a girl that turned me on, it would only serve to exacerbate the situation. And that brings up it's own point....... ;) If you can go around comfortably tucked, not only are you a little guy (in more ways than one), but you aren't fussed by all the hotties out there.

I know you think you are proving Alf (and I) wrong by virtue of your own (technical) gender, and dressing style, but in truth, you are actually proving us right. ;)

Do you tuck too Col?

I would not suggest that women pay any price for anyhting, pants or otherwise. Face the facts man, you are in a minority, kilts are expensive because they are made specific ways and are very low volume. If you go buying skirts instead, guess what happens? Kilts don't sell, volume drops, price goes up (or at the very least, remains constant).

If the demand you want us to beleive in, actually existed, there would be companies producing them by the 18 wheeler load and shipping them globally as fast as the sewing machines could go. And the prices would drop. But that hasn't happened.... has it?

Did you happen to note the lady that stated she would not want her man to pick up this particular affinity? Do you honestly believe she's a minority? Do you expect straight guys to do something that will shun women?

How about you support kilts, instead of skirts? Then you might actually have a prayer, someday, maybe.

And Alf and I the same person? Surely you can't be serious.
