How To Prove Your Manliness Whilst Wearing A Skirt

Updated on May 30, 2010

Many men like the idea of wearing skirts, but worry that their masculine image will be tainted if they do so. Fortunately, a skirt is just one part of an outfit, and there are a myriad of ways in which you can wear a skirt whilst also looking undeniably masculine.

Epic Facial Hair

By growing epic mountain man facial hair, you will ensure that everybody around you knows that you are not only exceptionally manly, but potentially unpredictable. There's something in the human psyche that makes us simultaneously admire and fear manly facial hair, the more prolific, the more we admire and fear it. There is after all, something inherently primal about growing the man hair on your face, it's an undeniably signaler of masculinity, even if food does occasionally get stuck in your beard and set up its own little ecosystems.

Ride A Horse


Master a powerful beast and nobody will be able to deny that you are incredibly manly. Horses are not only powerful, but also have an allure for women that will make you irresistible. Make sure that you tie your horse up securely when doing the grocery shopping, the economy is tough at the moment and there are horse rastlers everywhere.

Paint Your Face Blue


Painting your face blue and shouting 'FREEDOM' worked for Mel Gibson, and I see absolutely no reason why it shouldn't work for you in much the same way. Your place of work may have some dress codes that prohibit blue face paint, so check with HR, aka: Guardians of Protocol before you go down this electrifying dress avenue.

Non Insane / Life Altering Options


If none of these options appeal to you, you can simply try integrating skirts into common 'masculine' outfits. Wear a skirt with a shirt and a tie, you're going to look masculine because you're a male and your body is built along male lines. You don't have the curves or proportion ratios of a female. Clothing does not define gender.

Testosterone is a miraculous thing and males, no matter what they're wearing, are usually quite obviously males. Even those who transition across gender lines need extensive hormonal treatment and oftentimes plastic surgery on noses and jaw lines in order to look feminine.

Whats my point? You're going to look manly in a skirt because you're a man in a skirt. You don't need to prove your masculinity to the world in other ways. As long as you're not dressing in drag and dancing the hula, people worth associating with are going to figure out sooner or later that a skirt is just another piece of clothing that can be worn by men or women.
