I don't think skirts are gender for me personally (cis man), but if it wouldn't draw any extra attention to me, I'd consider trying them.
Maya Kern's skirts have pockets that can fit a Nintendo Switch in them. Consider the pocket possibilities if they made "men's skirts" (or just reasonable pockets for everyone). Imagine... Being able to adjust how you're sitting without your remote car keys setting off your car alarm.
My grade school had a dress code, and one part of that dress code was that for the winter months, boys had to wear pants, not shorts. The girls could wear skirts on any day.
Well there was a heat wave and we asked multiple times to wear shorts and they told us no... so we collected as many skirts as we could and most of us came in athletic shorts with a skirt. Technically in dress code becaure girls were allowed shorts under their skirts. Rule was changed the next day.
