Fashion: The return of men in skirts?

[rmaciej23]

Shorts plus skirt - i not understand this idea. Could just as well wear the only shorts.

[Verozth]

wow... looks horrible...

[iAlteira]

3 people think women can have more decisions.

[Rikku2250]

Yes! Living in Scotland has made my used to seeing men in skirt-like dress (kilts). At formal events, there is always at least one brave man in a kilt. Two boys at my Prom wore kilts (with nothing underneath, may I add. Now that, I do not like).

It is also about time more woman started wearing ties and proper shirts in the workplace and for suits for formal events/parties :).

[joeygart]

a lot of cross dressing over there.

[dtrez09]

"no need to be gay.." what the hell is he on about gay men don't cross dress unless they are crossdressers.

[esiej]

people in France are gay

[Shevaron]

I have a long black skirt with chains and straps on it. Total Gothic looking in style like the one shown in the video. I wear it when I go dancing at industrial klubs. I did wear it once in main stream public and got lots stares :) But if anyone would like to know wear get one goto a German web site X-tra-X.de . They have lots of cool stuff.

thumbs up for this short Movie

[phboy38]

i would wear a skirt if i could find one

[tipit2002]

@phboy38 me too

[sissytracey]

MEN hold MEN back we are our own worst enemy

[PerhapsPh]

@sissytracey

this is sooo true

[xn67]

No thanks... living in Canada I think a skirt would be pretty cold. Besides, then I would have to wear tights, and if I wear tights I'd have to get nice attractive shoes that show off my legs and no wear snow boots. Then while I am at is, I can exactly wear a hockey jersey. Hey while I am at it why I don't I just have my privates cut off and made into a woman, would save me a lot of time shopping for men skirts. No... give me Buffalo Jeans and a good tshirt! That is all I need because I am a man

[strikemaster77]

@xn67 , I live in Poland, we have cold winters too and I'm fighting for the rights to wear skirts.

Jeans, like other types of trousers are the one of main causes of some diseases, like infertility, prostate, pesticular cancers, so the riosk, Yopur privates will demand removbal in trousers increases.

[67xn]

@strikemaster77 Good point about "infertility, prostate, pesticular cancers, so the riosk," although it doesn't help that men are wearing tighter and tight jeans. The ancient Scots had it right, a kilt and nothing else. Free and lose commando style.

[tipit2002]

@xn67 i'm a men living in canada too and i like wear utilikilt. It's really great and comfy to be naked under kilt... During winter, with wool socks it very comfy., surely more comfy than a cotton skintight jeans.

[HraefnFlyht]

@xn67 Oh? So if someone took away your jeans and t-shirt, you would lose your manliness? I didn't know there were men as insecure about their sex as you.

By the way, I have worn a skirt with my legs bare except for socks, in snappy cold temperatures, and it's plenty warm. The only thing that gets chilly is my knees after a while.

[rapelpecho]

or remove the skirt and wear just the shorts underneath

[skirteddancer]

Much, much more comfortable than trousers. I sincerely hope it catches on and men have the courage to go skirted.

[ZKoftherebellion]

Jesus wore a dress.

the Bible says you should be more like Jesus.

Christians just lost any argument against this,

[kilteddave1]

What is the point of the "shorts" underneith? That is still "constricting" with the legs. At least wear brief style underwear. If women can wear brief style underwear under a skirt, then men can to..Why the long knee length shorts? It defeats the purpuse. I wear a Utilikilt all time with briefs (bikini type) under it to allow maximum movement with the legs.

[Stallion8057]

this will happen in the near future clothes are slowly becoming unisex. 

[strikemaster77]

Sophiacopa, trousers were invented for women, not for men. Male's body doesn't match with trousers at all. Trousers give us the pressure in places where is very unhealthy, also causes overheating of our genitalia which causes increased risk of some diseases like Benign, prostate cancer, infertility etc. Skirts are much better for men than trousers.

[phboy38]

its about time

are you interester in the blur of gender roles in fashion?? have a look at my blog!!

[thelonelyslayer]

this whole arguement is not about men trying to be, look, or act like women. It's about men having the option to wear whatever they want and own it the way women have done in fashion.

[isamuel13mod]

Felicitaciones y muchas gracias por brindar una alternativa mas SALUDABLE, cómoda para el vestuario masculino. El pantalón es la prenda menos adecuada para un varón. Con las faldas para los hombres rebajaran muchísimo los problemas de salud de los hombres; (impotencia, esterilidad, problemas de próstata, cáncer del testículo). Ninguna parte del cuerpo del hombre se maltrata tanto como los genitales; por eso es mejor usar faldas para hombres.

[Sophiakopa]

it just looks weird, women can were pants because it doesnt look weird. But the male body just doesnt match with skirts, thats why some females cant even where skirts themselves.

[Kojitsu]

@Sophiakopa

This is only because of how we are raised in todays society. There was once a time when women were not allowed to wear pants. Many ancient cultures had men in something similar to skirts.

[skirteddancer]

@Sophiakopa It's all a matter of perception. See men wearing skirts everyday, you'd soon get used to it. And skirt have to be cut differently to women's skirts, to take account of the different body shape.

[HraefnFlyht]

@skirteddancer How exactly do skirts have to be cut differently to fit a man? A skirt fits the waist alone. How is a man's waist any different from a woman's?

[skirts365]

@HraefnFlyht It may apply only with tight skirts where hips are a bit wider. Tight skirts are too much like tight pants, and represent very little gain. If it's a DRESS, it does need to be tailored differently upstairs to accomodate the man's generally wider shoulders, and no breast configuration in the bodice (torso region).

[skirts365]

From Jim McCord as COP Jim Reed on Adam-12---"The way a man dresses or wears his hair happens to be his own business" tell that to that HICK Tate in New Orleans. Tate would have been with the Romans under Hadrian in 393AD when men in PANTS were EXILED. The message in skirt dominant societies is "conform or die" the message in pants dominant societies is "conform or die" it NEVER occurs to the mental "health" movement to issue calls for TOLERANCE of nonconformity they HAVE to call it "illness!"

[Lucky0967]

men can wear skirts and dump boring old trousers also save some money - I wear women denim mini skirt cos Im too silm (Im male) as you can see women wear men clothes so men can do the same as wear women clothes like swap it - no harm by trying to wear - it quite fun

[Sakurairo250]

When are they gonna make a show where girls make outfits out of everyday clothing peices or just boughten clothes jeez well you know what i mean

[mega8metalr]

wow i can't believe how open they are to men wearing skirts,if you tried that here in America you would be made fun of every second,called gay,and possible be beaten up.i wish we were more like France

[skirts365]

@mega8metalr There IS persecution.  Who foments it? PSYCHIATRY and RELIGION are the cause of prejudice--they invalidate intolerance by slandering the individualist as "disordered" and "abomination to God." OUTLAW THE FESTERING PSYCHIATRIC PSYCHOLOGICAL SOCIAL WORKER PHARMACEUTICAL MENTAL HEALTH CULT. Just like you'd criminalize people who go about hunting for "witches" and "heretics." Then there's style selfish female & the beer slurping guy wants skirts worn only by females vaginal signal!!

[kilts4u2]

A large portion of the men in the world have been wearing sarong, saris, wrappers, kilts, tunics and/or skirts for years. So why is this news now? It's about time Western men had alternatives in their wardrobe instead of pants and shirts. Shirts and pants. I've worn skirts and kilts for years. It's easy. The trick is not to look effeminate or trashy. This opens a lot of doors in the world of fashion equality. Change takes time...but this will happen.

[youthman7]

I'm modern, forward thinking man, not ready for this fashion style!

[tainteddeity]

@youthman7

Pffft, can't be modern or forward thinking then, can you?

[thelonelyslayer]

@youthman7 maybe not you pops, but us kids sure as hell are ready. :-)

[JamesWinston512]

People once thought the idea of women wearing pants was silly and tasteless.

Jesus didn't wear pants.

[oknowboardiesrule]

no no no no no no no men in skirts

[skirts365]

If you are male you can decide ONLY for yourself. If you are female, butt out. As long as men don't wear bras they aren't dressed like women. As for the design at 2:03 oh please try a square dance petticoat instead. More comfortable and far better looking. If you want to wear all black place movie posters of Adam Cartwright and Richard Boone as Paladin in your bedroom. They always wore black and looked good even in dismal pants. Greeks wear petticoats see on You Tube.

[mannecyberguy]

@oknowboardiesrule WHY? Where is it cut in granite that men have to be confined to pants, but women can wear anything they damn well please???

[Stefanie822002]

@mannecyberguy well spoken

[mannecyberguy]

@oknowboardiesrule WHY????

[catwoman337]

hot hot

[MrJohnKlar]

Skirts are nice to wear in summer, nothing is fresher then a skirt at 30^C

[hannahappiest]

I think it's cool :)

[bripoe123]

lol

[Chepo760]

haha they're jerkiing in France?/..haha

it had to be the black chicks...hahaha 2:45

[Radikll]

If only America was this progressive ;)

[mannecyberguy]

@Radikll What do you think are the odds that America will progress to such a degree? That both men and women will be able to wear whatever they damn well please without society throwing a hissy fit? What do you think?

[Radikll]

@mannecyberguy Well... People would actually have to be open minded.

[tainteddeity]

@mannecyberguy

It's not about odds. Sure it might be difficult and there will be a lot of opposition, but it's poesible.

Our culture is heavily based on gender roles which harms us all.

[lostinseganet]

I would wear a skirt as a joke if my girl wears one as well. Not every day though. Maybe an apron for cooking or a belt like something to hold tools. Pants with a skirt cut at a 45 degree angle reaching the ankles.

[foititis]

us monks have been doing it for years

[fliprap]

@foititis thats good for monks because they dont mind looking that way, but foreal i wouldn't get caught dead wearing that.
