http://www.sanfranciscosentinel.com/?p=46895Walking through the lively districts of Harajuku and Shibuya in Tokyo, one might encounter a sight unusual to many people's eyes: men in skirts. Not kilts or kimono, but skirts.
Called "the skirt boys," or "skirt tribe," the skirt-wearing men of Tokyo are beginning to get some attention from the fashion world.
And so, though it may be a little rude, I have to ask: How is this different from being a cross-dresser?
