Everyone has their choice in what they choose to wear. Some skirts look great on men, such as the Kilt. It's just that Kilts are more formal wear saved for weddings and dinner parties. There are 'casual', sometimes called 'utility' kilts but can be expensive, over the £100 ($200) mark; Union Kilts (kilts.org) cost around £30 - £60.

It's the connection that skirt=woman that prevents more men wearing skirts. Some would work well like denim but the majority are too feminine, and too restrictive.

If more mainstream people like Usher, or Snoop Dogg were to wear a denim skirt, (I've seen Snoop in a Kilt at MTV Awards) they would be flying off the shelves. But I guess men are more keen to be the same as all their mates.

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise- Men can and do wear skirts and always have done! The problem with asking anyone about men wearing skirts is that, having in all likelihood never seen a man wearing a skirt, they have to rely on images provided by the media. These images will mainly be of:

* Men in kilts (and contrary to popular belief, you don't have to be a Scot to wear a kilt),

* Men wearing frocks and resembling the ugliest of women,

* Drag queens,

* Men dressing to pass as women. Imagination has to do the rest and the mental picture of a man wearing women's clothes is the result. Add that to the ingrained notion that wearing clothes of the opposite gender affects your sexuality (it doesn't) and you have a negative image. The reality is somewhat different.
