The question looks at the past through the eyes of current practice, which is to associate skirts entirely with females. But skirts/pants are sex neutral---where is the anatomical difference? They're 2 different ways to clothe the legs. Skirts are "draped" garments; pants are "tailored" garments. Draped garments were typically worn by both sexes in ancient times. Pants were "barbarian," not "male." Trousers originated in arctic areas and among horseback riding peoples because of the demands of climate and function---not, as psychiatry dismally asserts, "because male brain chemistry determines it." The modern Greek army wears a white pleated skirt. Get this straight everyone---skirts are like pants, "100% totally gender neutral." Social forces have determined clothing behavior. Until factory work in WW2 placed 17 million USA women into pants, women were forbidden to wear pants on the pretext that it would make them "transvestites!" Skirts are just as masculine as pants except through the eyes of childish associative "reasoning."

What country is known for man wearing skirt?
Well, there are many countries in which a man would be seen as acceptable for wearing a 'skirt', but a noteworthy one is Scotland, where it is traditional dress to wear a kilt, which is not dissimilar to a skirt. 'Skirts' were worn by the Ancient Egyptians also, and there are places in the Far East where traditional dress, especially for monks, is a skirt of sorts. Furthermore, tribal dress in Africa is frequently a skirt of some sort. It is the pretty much a situation where a man is either more acceptable for wearing trousers, or a 'skirt'. Of course, I wouldn't expect a tribal African to wear trousers, would you? Therefore, wherever you would not expect a man to wear trousers, they are likely to wear some sort of a skirt.
