I dunno why but I’m somehow bothered by the post on an emotional level. I do not want to accuse anybody, it’s primarily my own issue of course.
The first thing I thought of was transgender men getting told to present feminine. I think nobody should be told how they should dress.
I know it’s a meme and I am taking this a bit too seriously.
Anyways skirts are cool and can be cute and feminine like in the op or cool and masculine like a kilt. It’s a very versatile garment everybody could wear more often.
I think of this as analogous to the movement to get women to wear pants. It’s not that we wanted them to present as masculine; it’s that we wanted pants to stop being masculine and start being just clothes. Basically all masculine coded attire became androgynous, but almost no feminine code attire did.
It’s not like skirts are inherently feminine either. There are plenty of examples across cultures and time of it being perfectly normal for men to wear them.
So presenting masculine is not attractive?

calling skirts + crop top attractive is not the same as calling only that attractive. i hope this helps you make peace with this post
