Dear Abby: Man's family ridicules his skirt-wearing habit

DEAR ABBY: My problem is unusual, but I'm hoping that if you address it in your column it will help.
I'm a married man, confident in who I am, who wears skirts for comfort.
I feel that skirts are more comfortable than pants, which I find tight, restrictive and uncomfortable. I wear skirts around the house, when I'm out running errands and when I attend church. My clergyman has raised no objection to it.
After much research, my wife and I have concluded that the only thing against men wearing skirts is social pressure, and then only in certain countries - America being one of them.

I can't believe I just read the words "testicular fortitude" in a Dear Abby column. :laugh:
