More questions for cis guys: why *don't* you wear skirts? They're super practical garments (in some contexts anyway) very comfortable and work really well in the summertime. Like, I know why I don't... I've got so many old fears about being seen as the sissy or the tranny (fuck it: I've been called those slurs enough, I get to use them if I want), and feel like I've taken quite enough beatings for one lifetime already. I kind of assumed that was cis dudes worry too... But is that actually true?

@danielle Cis/hetero man here. About two years ago I had a very similar thought and had a sudden urge to start dressing a little more feminine and to start wearing skirts. I settled on wearing kilts (and learned to sew them myself since they're fucking expensive) and never looked back. They are so goddamn comfortable and I wear them every day. I really want to get more men into it because it just feels so nice and a man in a skirt is

@Pizzazz @danielle I admit o never used a skirt or kilt, though I'd really like to (never did because I'm too lazy to go out of my way to go look after one), but I just wanted to say that if you lived in some cities in Brazil it's so hot you'd want even more that it became usual clothing for men, as for the whole society we can't look serious (for work) wearing short pants. Maybe the skirt would be a solution.
