Re: UFOs

I live about five or six miles away from Todmorden by road, closer from the moors, where one of the more publicised UFO sightings took place (1970s I think). I regularly walk the moors, around dusk at this time of year but have never seen anything. You've reminded me that, as a kid in probably the ...

Re: Fourteen Percent of Men Wear Nail Polish?

The results from analysing the responses to the Hard as Nails Pilot were announced around a week ago. The Headlines from the results were: '80% of men discussed stepping out of the "man box". 4 out of 5 respondents described changing behaviours or reflection on masculinity. 75% engaged in ...

Re: I don't want to be labeled

If you fully dress and act as a female then probably nobody apart from a few bigots will bat an eye. If you identify as male then absolutely zero men will care if you use their bathroom. Its all a load of nonsense being pushed by bigoted fools. Sense will prevail. The trouble is that, following the...

Re: I don't want to be labeled

Someone I follow on Instagram posted this (in response to a comment about genes): "You don’t have to prove your genes to get access to a toilet or a changing room. I bet you don’t know your own sex chromosome make-up, you just assume it to be something. Since no one ever carries their birth cer...

Re: I like this picture...

We had a similar problem when my wife ordered what looked like a knitted jumper/sweater only to receive a similar printed sweatshirt. I disputed the transaction with the credit card company which resulted in being offered a full refund and asked to drop the dispute! We tried arguing with the supplie...

Re: interesting interaction

Unless I'm much mistaken, the responses in this thread are extrapolating from a couple of individuals to stereotyping a huge group of people and *judging* them. Isn't that the type of behaviour that we are trying to avoid being on the receiving end of?

Re: Men wearing a skirt in commercial

On the sizing of skirts, I think many women would tell us that the size on the label is just a number and may not be helpful. My wife once bought 2 pairs of trousers (pants} from M&S which were identical apart from the colour but one was a much better fit than the other. I've tried skirts in the...

Re: Musings about our changing times and how I anticipate it may effect me (us)

Politics does not belong on Skirt Cafe' unless is a discussion concerning Skirts for Men as normal daily clothing choices. All other political discussion is off the table. I don't like to pull the "Mod Hat" out but I will, when necessary. This is one of those cases where it became necessa...

Re: Hats

Just to be pedantic, the hat mentioned earlier is a Breton hat, which I believe originates in Brittany, France. The 1st picture is the former leader Jeremy Corbyn. A picture of him in a hat like that was superimposed on a graphic of a Moscow skyline at one point in (I think) an election campaign whi...

Re: Zelensky's Attire

To be fair to JD a right-wing journalist started the clothes topic. They don't seen to realise that his country is at war. They chime in with Putin's demand that he hold an election. How do you hold an election in a war?

Re: Pretty Red Dress - film on BBC2 (UK) last night

Sorry - I should have said that I'd read some reviews and watched the trailer. I was after more than that.
Thanks anyway

Pretty Red Dress - film on BBC2 (UK) last night

Did anyone watch this film last night (or before)? I recorded it but haven't watched it yet. (It's also available on iPlayer but probably UK only.) I'm trying to gauge where it's at on the spectrum of "man in a dress" to "cross-dresser" to see whether it might help with getting m...

Re: Musings about our changing times and how I anticipate it may effect me (us)

Frankly I'm starting to wonder if there might have actually been election interference in 2020, as in all my travels from the Atlantic to the Pacific, it seems that 99 out of 100 people flat out worships the ground Trump walks on. Please, let's not go there again. An awful lot of lawyers made a lot...
