Equality in Fashions for men and women, men wearing skirts.

I'm an imigrant from another discussion board about men wearing skirts. I'm very glad to have an alternative board to visit to share heterosexual experiences wearing skirts.

I am biological male and in every way male. I avoid and dislike the mocho image some men portray and and generally prefer to spent my time with women rather than men. I do have some men friends, the frendships have been forged over many years and very close to these guys.

I wear mostly mini skirts and some dresses depending on the weather. When it's warm I wear mini skirts, and when the weather turns cold I bring out my long dresses, and sometimes I wear shorter dresses when it's not too cold. I find the dresses the most comfortable because they hardly touch me and thererfore don't bind. I usuall wear skirts because I feel that combined with a mans dress shirt it presents a more masculine immage.

Being on a limited income (as oposed to being able to buy anything I want) I buy mostly womens skirts, and sometimes, when I have time and inspiration, I make my own skirts.

Since most skirts don't have pockets, and the fact that I was told many years ago to stop sitting on my wallet that it was throwing my back out of alignment, I carry a purse everywhere I go even when I have to wear pants.

I find that many people don't realy care what I'm wearing. Sure, they notice, and are too polite to say anything to me or even to allow me to hear them laugh about it. Sometimes I do notice them laughing but that isn't so bad.... after all isn't bringing laughter to the world a good thing?

The most threatened are other men, I'm secure in my masculinity, but it seems the masculinity of some other men is much more fragile. �Even at that very few try to make trouble, still I keep an eye out for the trouble makers.

I've worn skirts off and on for about 30 years and for the last 3 years have become convinced that I'm right and the rest of the world is nuts.

Well I feel that I've rambled enough... I hope I've given someone out there the courage to put on a skirt and start enjoying life. �Just do it!
