Why have we travelling to Ireland as an exchange
student next year, so we thought it’d be

not a common practice. The kind of
Skirts in men skirt called “kilt” is a traditional
Scottish skirt that is commonly
associated with Celtic culture and can
be found in some regions of Ireland.

Skirts in men
Fashion and individual expression
The use of this kind of skirts in men isn’t
common in daily life in Ireland. Fashion and
trends are constantly evolving, so there is always
room for individual expression.
Recently, there has been increased debate and
openness about gender-fluid fashion and the
expression of gender identity in different cultures.
Both women and men can choose to wear skirts
as a personal style choice or as a way to
challenge established gender norms. Skirt
wearing is mainly common in urban contexts,
specific events related to fashion, creativity, or
the LGBTQ+ community.
 The use of skirts by men isn’t a
common practice in the daily life of
Irish men. However, fashion and trends
Skirts in men can change over time, and it is possible
to find people who choose to wear
What have we read? skirts as a form of personal expression,
but this could still be considered
unconventional in Irish society.
