in many cultures men have (and still do) worn skirted garments since pre-historic days. the ONLY cultures that get get their undies bound up over the idea are in the u.s. and portions of europe. every other culture out there has SOME level of exposure to skirted garments for men, and has SOME degree of acceptance for the idea.
i suggest ignoring those folks who post on here simply to shake the hornets' nest and create friction. they are not worth the energy needed to post a reply.
i have worn skirts for years. both socially and to work. very few people have a real issue with it, and even fewer are going to say anything negative to you. the comments i get are almost 100% positive, both from men & women.
posters like ALF are trolling for responce, and would NEVER have the courage to babble like they do here if they were face-to-face with you.
wear a skirt. the sky won't fall, and you'll have pushed your own fears a bit further away. if anybody says something to you, be pleasant to them untill they prove themselves to be unpleasant. most are simply curious to WHY you'd wear a skirt.
if they are unpleasant, a palm-strike to the underside of the chin is usually fatal if delivered quickly.
this could be a sight you'll have to get used to.
