Why men don't wear skirts

Why men don't wear skirts; I can't believe I'm actually writing on this topic. Let's all just take a moment to laugh. OK, back to business. Men don't wear skirts firstly; because of the PURPOSE of skirts. Skirts (especially the mini-skirts nowadays) were created for one purpose-the same reason why guys have holes in the front of their boxers, that is-convenience. Skirts make it easy for women to show off their legs and if you've ever tried it, jeans (and other pant forms) aren't the best thing for a quickie. They're to sexually appeal to men, I suppose if you swing that way then its all well and good, but it still might be a bit uncomfortable, and cold.



Secondly-have you SEEN guys' legs? They're not to show off, that's for certain, women have pretty, elegant legs, least most of us do. The biggest thing is, they are meant for showing off, as is the rest of the female anatomy. We're supposed to be elegant and graceful, guys, well, they aren't. Its for that special twist in the skirt when your dancing to feel it flow around you, its to show off those gorgeous legs we are blessed with, its to feel pretty. I don't know about you, but last time I checked, guys were supposed to be rugged and handsome, I don't think they'd appreciate being pretty quite as well as girls.

Now, none of the above is meant to be sexist, to either gender, considering I'm a strong feminist that has a lot of guy friends, but honestly people, I've seen a guy in a cheer-leading outfit-not pretty, down right disgusting if you ask me. Guys-even gay guys-don't wear them. Just don't, not cute, they aren't meant for you, they serve no purpose on a guy, and you'd look way better in a nice pair of jeans. Gals, feel free, I don't wear them all that often, but I don't mind them, either.
