If you present as a man, maybe she is selectively blind.
If I lived in Chicago I wouldn't wear a skirt in February either.
Work on your elegance,
and beauty will follow.
Well you are not alone. It's the last day of February for this year and I just went into the other room and changed out of my shorts and put on a blue denim skirt!
My wife doesn't want to see or know, so I told her that I will see her in an hour, but that I needed some time for myself. This is a compromise we made at my wife's suggestion! Things are getting better, albeit slowly, but better just the same. We have a great relationship, and since I came out of the closet, we have spoken often and are working through this.
So I say to you, "Gosh WBDavid! Skirts in February, indeed! What's next? Skirts in March"?
Enjoy!

I'm in Tn. and wear skirts and knee high boots frequently in the winter. In Nashville, it is NOT an uncommon sight.
I grew up in a time when most women never wore pants outside the home. It was always skirts and dresses no matter the weather. Minus twenty degrees? Skirt or dress. Always. Times have changed but not necessarily for the best.
I wear skirts all year long here in Boulder Colorado too all year. We have fun winter weather though. One day it can be 20 and snow, next day mid 50's and sunny. With minimal humidity the mid 50's can feel like mid 70's so skirts and above the knee dresses are very comfortable. I don't leave the house though other than the back yard so yea I would expect others to be surprised at a skirt in winter and bare legs than just a guy in a skirt.
C'mon Colorado girls! This is the land of shorts and a down coat, with flip flops and a knit cap. I won't go out unless I can look good in a dress or skirt. If I need to bundle up, I stay home. (still can't wait for summer though so the hemline can rise)

Luckily here in Florida skirts are good anytime. The rude people are around anytime also....unfortunately
All I ever wanted was to be a girl. Is that really asking too much?
Since I wear skirts pretty much all the time (except at work), I'm wearing them in February, too. If I'm feeling chilly (which has more to do with where my metabolism is at the moment), I wear tights, an ankle-length (lined) denim jumper, and as many petticoats as I need. If I'm feeling hot (e.g., from shoveling snow), a T-shirt, above the knee skirt, and maybe knee socks. Of course, it hasn't gotten particularly cold this winter, I think the coldest was around 10F (around -10 C.) Right now, it's about 50F (+10C) outside.
And I'm not the only winter skirt-wearer. When I take the train, there are always some women wearing skirts. Even in the coldest weather, out of the 100 or so people I see at my station, I'm assured of seeing at least one or two in a skirt, sometimes with bare legs. And my station is right on the river, where you can get some nice strong icy winds.
Good for you for expressing who you are and not caring what rude people think .
I am out a lot and usually wear skirts ,hot or cold
They also had long warm coats to wear over those skirts and dresses!
I don't really see that. Mimi and I were out shopping the other day and saw plenty of skirts and dresses. Long, short, brights, florals, there's no end to the variety. I love it!

I don't own a single pair of femme pants. So, what should I wear in any month other than a dress? I will admit it does not get as cold in Washington State as the rest of the world, but, that cool breeze caressing my legs is a part of the thrill. Of course my wife hated wearing a dress in freezing temperatures when we lived back east. If the temperature was in the 50's I think that is warm enough for a skirt or dress.

Funny a 20 something girl would comment on the time of year, but not about a guy in a skirt. All I can say....you go girl....wear your skirts proudly ANY time of year!!

Hi David , You do know that you just can't fix stupid.
Having my ears triple pierced is AWESOME, ~~......

Be careful what you wish for, Once you ring a bell , you just can't Un-Ring it !! !!
It really does not matter much here in New Albany/Louisvile no matter what the weather is. I just seen a 20 something girl in a big jacket, scarf, miniskirt with tights and boots and its like 30 degrees. Like others I do not even own girl pants, just skirts and nothing longer than mid knee. A few weeks ago I seen a woman in Walmart in shorts and no hose or tights and it was way colder than 30.
As a man I wear flipflops in winter in the rain and snow. I see no reason not to wear a nice long skirt in February as long as you're not cold. Here in so cal the worst of the rain is a light sprinkle, it's always skirt weather. Half the girls at school are wearing mini-skirts over pantyhoes every day. Come to cali, you'll fit right in!
I wear cargo skirts with thick black tights and calf length boots in winter. For skirts and pantyhose ... well where I live live (Sacramento valley) it's not that cold in February.

I don't have a lot of skirts. I do have a lot of dresses, though. Hmm, I don't really know why that is.
Last weekend, I took the train from New Jersey to NYC, and bopped around Manhattan last week wearing a sheer floral black dress (from H&M), and riding boots , but the catch here is I wore a black tank top and black leggings underneath. The day was cold and blustery. The fun part is I went shopping, got a nice pedicure on 14th St., and stopped into a really neat hamburger joint.
Wednesday a couple of days ago, I wore the same ensemble in the city , but this time it was a red dress where the hem is longer in the back than the front. I met up with friends for dinner, then we went to a rock concert.

Karen wears skirts or dresses regardless of the time of year. The only thing close to PANTs that Karen owns are PANTIES. Yes, those I do wear a lot. Even with dresses and skirts. Never commando.
