this is why i am naked at home all the time. Clothes are so restrictive. bball shorts are a good second. Skirt/Kilt could be even more comfortable.

I can wear a kilt and it's like a dress (well, skirt) but nobody calls me a faggot.

A few years ago, back in the Netherlands, the male bus drivers of a certain public transportation company were forced to wear long pants by their 'managers'. Their female colleagues had a more comfortable uniform with a skirt. As a protest, a number of male bus drivers started borrowing the uniforms of their femaile colleagues. HR gave in. Good.
I feel blessed that I only have to wear pants.
The Scottish are way ahead of ya. those kilts look pretty comfortable.
Wanna know what I wear under me kilt?
Me shoes!
at any previous job I would agree, but I work in a datacenter now that is not only quite cold, but also has lots of strong sources of blowing air that could be problematic with the wrong dress. Whenever I go to renfest I wear my kilt and fucking love it though.
Southeast Asian batik clothes are a nice alternative to western clothing (for both men and women)
Here they can be considered both formal and casual so you can wear it for anything. I'm a big fan of batik pants myself.
Don't feel bad for us. I like my pants. Even on a blistering hot day at work they keep me safer from burns and cuts and when I'm out hiking in jeans I don't have tick problems
Shorts >>>>>>>>
Chino pants are comfy enough for me.
Was hot enough the other day I pulled out the ranger panties at work, no shame. Those are good enough tbh!
I already see more men wearing skirts in summer and it brings me so much joy. I've said it before and will say it again; clothes don't need to be gendered. If something looks good on a woman it will look good on a man too, and vice versa.

I have a skirt to wear around the house :)
Been wearing a kilt for years. I will never go back. Pants are tight, restrictive, and lack much needed ventilation. And let's be honest, they weren't designed to accommodate the male anatomy. Much better to have a kilt and enjoy the breeze between your knees.
Yeah, but it's worth the trade off. Men's clothes typically have pockets FOR DAYS.
