First off it's not a skirt, it's a kilt!
Now I will list a bunch of reasons why men have and should wear kilts.
Most provided by Utilikilts.
Ahem...
1.Because throughout history, men have worn un-bifurcated garments. (Scots, Samoans, Egyptians, American Indians, Hawaiians, Japanese, Indians, etc.)
2.Because if women had an appendage hanging between their legs we guarantee you they wouldn’t be wearing pants!
3.Freedom, and increased mobility.
4.You only go around once, so why not be as comfortable as possible?
5.All men deserve air conditioning in the summer. You will chafe no more.
6.No more adjust, right side, left side… and say goodbye to wedgies.
7.Your mojo will thank you.
8.Easy access...
9.The freedom to scratch when and where it itches.
10.You can call Punks conformists.
11.Because the boys (wink wink!), they like to swing.
12.Because history has shown that men in kilts routinely kick the sh!t out of the trousered.
13.Heat vents on cold days.
14.AC vents on hot days.
15.The extra element of suprise, when you have to kick someone in the head.
16In this culture, men have spent the last century ogling women's legs. It's time to turn the other cheek.
17.You introduce yourself to a woman, and she immediately starts thinking about your undergarments.
18.Because the extra groin room compensates for the cojones required to wear one. :-)
19.It makes people wonder.
20.I look good in it.
21.Almost as good as being naked.
22.Women love men in kilts.
23.Even straight guys check me out.
24.When operating a zipper is too far beyond your capabilities.
25.To give the ladies a cheap thrill when you get out of a car.
Fringe benefits:
A. Physical: Your virility may increase. You will experience the pleasing sensation of air conditioning.
B. Mental: Wearing a kilt shows a sense of security with yourself, and you will inspire much debate in others.
C. Spiritual: Without physical constrictions, your burden will be lighter, your sense of freedom less impaired, and your sense of self will have room to grow.
Eat that, bit@hes!

Okay, granted all that, but why the panty hose and garter belt?
Accessories make the man. I mean, come on, he would look foolish without those. And you can keep all kinds of stuff in those garter belts. Like nunchucks. And lipstick, you know, for touch ups. Happens to the best of us. Maybe some rouge. Really brings out the cheekbones.

AMEN to #8 & 22
#17 should read "...your undergarments, OR LACK THERE OF" because if you're wearing it properly it tends to make our minds wonder to a good place.
Or maybe he was wearing his kilt today & his wife decided to quit wondering. (hence #8 should have been #1) :o)
Yeah, we'll just go with his asleep.
Huh? I still see his post starting this off.
Gah, quit messing with my head, I'm on call & am lacking in sleep.

Yeah, went to bed early last night, midnight!
I like the workman's kilt made of carhardt material. I have one and it is awesome for working in the summer heat. Lilith showed me the site a while back and I immediately got one. Wish they weren't so darn expensive.
I need to get one that goes with my messenger bag. Yes, I also carry a man-purse, but I look like someone that you wouldn't want to ask why they carry one. In 3 years of carrying it (works great to stuff a couple extra diapers in for the kid(s)!) I had one person say something about. I just alluded to the fact that it is much easier to keep your "personal security items" in. No further questions.
he-he.

I've had a man-purse for a good six or seven years and no one has said anything, beyond one guy on the train that asked how I liked my Dickies bag (which is the brand). I told him that I liked it, and that it was pretty sturdy and has lasted me a long time. Apparently, the guy worked for Dickies and told me that if, for any reason, I wanted a new one (even if I just decided to get a different color) all I had to do was ship it back to the company and they would replace it. It's something a lot of people don't know about, so the company doesn't lose a lot of money.
I used to want a kilt, and I have the calves for it, but they're just too expensive. And I've been hit on by drag queens enough as it is.
Utilikilts rock. I have five of them.
Its the combination in ultimate practicality, comfort and fashion statement all wrapped up in one. I've been a fan for years.
It's all about the sheep! Oh, and other farm animals too.
What a bizarre thread. Loads of men talking about the merits of skirts and one girl making inuendo's (sp?. Who would have thought...
surreal...

It's all about the sheep! Oh, and other farm animals too.Dude. That's just ba-a-a-a-ad...
What do you ewe mean?
Mmm...kilts...So many good benefits! :D
Oh wait, we're talkin' 'bout benefits for guys...:O
Unbifurcated garments are cool! Head on over to Utilikilts to see their selection o' stuff. I'm thinking about getting a pair for myself, 'cause I can totally pull off the biker look. Now if I can find myself a new pair o' boots to go with...:)

Earlier I e-mailed the utilikilts link to my wife. By her response, I think I know what I'm getting for my birthday!
Although then I found the Amerikilt website. I do like the sporran.
Anyone with experience with both brands have a preference?

Much as I like displaying the wares, I do like the modesty snap on my workman's utilikilt. I just feel better if I am doing something outside with the knowledge that nobody will see the inadvertent gust of wind showing off my psycidelic undies (love the colors, ladies). Haven't had any experience with Amerikilt but I don't see the modesty snap ('course for half the price I could get one and put one on it).

I just have to ask FH, did you ever wear a kilt while doing contracting work?
<--Is actually kinda impressed with what he saw from those sites...

I don't have any experience with Amerikilt, so I can't say how good they are. I wasn't crazy about the design.
I *can* recommend Sportkilts, however, for those looking for something a bit less expensive. They're a good deal for the money. And Bearkilts are a bit better, but I'm not sure if they are still in business.

I hadn't found them before I quit to be a stay-at-home dad, but I would have. I have used them on various projects around the house(building Pergolas, rebuilding a toolshed, etc.) and they work great! I got more room for tools then I usually need in the pockets and don't even use my toolbelt if I am wearing them.
Wish I had found these when I was roofing, would've made the 95+ degree days much more tolerable.FH
12.Because history has shown that men in kilts routinely kick the sh!t out of the trousered.
In America, where they wear pants, the national sport is hitting a little ball with a little stick. In Scotland they THROW TELEPHONE POLES! How manly are your pants now?
i knew a guy who wore a skirt to school

Um,...I'm kinda advocating the kilt-wearing here...not the pants....I'm on your side.
FH
I'm wearing a kilt right now!
