Can men wear skirts? I've been thinking about getting an ankle length black skirt to add to my wardrobe. Can guys pull off this style, or would I just end up looking like a half assed trans girl/cross dresser?

Do it. Youre already a fag

Probably depends on how you're otherwise dressed. Goths used to wear shit like that, but they're basically extinct now and I doubt most people even remember that. It would probably be hard to make it obvious you're just a dude wearing whatever the fuck these days, although the guy in that pic is a good example of how to fail completely. The wide necked sweater and weird loose choker push it too much into unpassing trans or crossdresser territory. Might be good to wear it with especially traditionally masculine staples like a suit jacket and tie, although that still wouldn't guarantee anything.

I agree that the pic isn't the best. There are very few pics of guys wearing skirts in style I'm thinking of. I don't love the idea of a suit jacket + tie, but I bet it would look pretty good with an open button up and under shirt. IDK, I'll probably try it out and see if it works or if it looks dumb.

No. Skirts are for women only.

tl;dr: wear it if you want

i have an ankle lenght skirt like pic related and a hakama and i personally pull them of.
Just go and try them on and see how they look on you and think what you are going to combine them with, obviously different pieces will give completly different results.
Also if you arent too confident in it or a little afraid you can start with a hakama which has always been worn by males and it was also used in the 80s, if all that fails you can still say that its actually really really wide trousers

i was struck by these outfits in the colour of pomegranates. They're definitely skirts but masculine kind of coats.
sick.

Skirts are for women. Do not wear one, not only will you look like a massive faggot but you will actually be one too.

Yes, I will assume you're having a gender identity crisis before you inevitably kill yourself.

Only if you're Scottish and it's a kilt. Otherwise don't do it, you'll look like a tranny.
>inb4 Scots already look like trannies
