the person commenting on the boy wearing the skirt had to be pretty tiny minded; girls and women can can pants and anything they damn well please, and nobody says jackshit, but let a boy or a man put on a skirt or dress and society throws a hissy fit, questioning his maleness.
@mannecyberguy Correct. People who don't care if a man lives or dies because they don't know him, are on high alert and gravely worried if he's wearing something "forbidden." They should be reminded that in the 19th century the New York Times accused women in pants of "trying to merge the two sexes in one person" and were afflicted with "permanent mental hallucination" (May 27, 1876, page 6, editorial "A Curious Disease.") OUTLAW PSYCHIATRY!!
@skirts365 You do have a valid point about the New York Times of 1876 accusing women who wore pants of having an alleged "Permanent mental hallucination", and of supposedly trying to merge the two sexes into one person; but I must disagree with you about outlawing psychiatry, only because what should be done to help those who have mental problems?
@mannecyberguy That's a longer story than I can explain here. See some videos here on the subject from the other side (not those profiting from it) basically, there are, nor can be, no mental illnesses in the sense the term is being used to suppress dissent, to destroy those with whom there is conflict, and to allow escape from personal responsibility "but Judge the disorder made me do it!" They used to call desire to escape slavery "drapetomania" another hokey "mental illness."
@bait28 You and Skirts365 have very valid points about social expectations and gender roles; it's silly that society should freak out over a man in America choosing to wear a skirt or a dress.
@mannecyberguy i know right. Thats what pisses me off. that know one else seems too. it's cause everyone goes oh but if i do that, i'll be different, and then everyone is thinking that, and what do you know, then we all are the same.

@bait28 That's true, bait28, there are many aspects in which we all are the same.
