Mini-kilt suitability

[The F-H.C.A.G.]

....

And F-H.C.A.G., the photo you shared here is what convinced my wife that a mini-kilt was OK. So, you have my eternal thanks!

Glad I could be of service! Actually, AlanH is the one to thank-he made that mini.

I agree, we've sort of hijacked this thread, and I apologize for that-it just seemed like it was starting to get a little heated.

There are plenty of men out there that would look grand in a mini kilt. And plenty that would NOT. Just like there are plenty of women in the same boats. But we should not tell people what they whould wear, based on our own ideas of what is right for ourselves.

I do think there is a common decency issue to consider. I don't think there are many main stream societies that would appreciate men in kilts/skirts/whatever that are so short as to be revealing genitalia in public. Other than that, if the legs/upper thighs don't look good, I'll just not look at them.

Be well,

This is what happens to interesting topics. And I wouldn't really say it's been hijacked; it's still pretty much on-topic: you've just confirmed that many guys prefer to see a nice lass in a mini-kilt.

Observing works of art like Roman statues of ancient heroes and rulers, it's fairly reasonable to say that a man can look masculine in a shortened outfit, if he has the right build to go with it. But if you begin to look like the late, very slightly built, Charles Hawtry, in such a costume, as he appeared in one of those old 'Carry On' films, it might be a big mistake.
I can't see that wearing anything meant for a man, even if it closely follows a style of clothing worn by women, can be considered to be cr**s dr****ng. Though the question might be asked why he would want to. Comfort? Exhibitionism? Sexual orientation?
People are always quick to load unwritten restrictions on others based solely upon what they personally like to see them in or don't like to see them in, even if the folk dolling out their preferences are complete strangers.
If anyone is keen to go down that road, and is prepared to take the flack, then good luck to them. It isn't illegal.
I'm not into minikilts, but it is supposed to be a free world after all (or, so they try to tell us). At best, I might be tempted to wear one on a hot day up on the hills miles from anywhere, but with my hairy legs I would be forever untangling the bracken.
