Girls, did you always have to wear a skirt growing up?

Don't think of it as a skirt. Think of it as a kilt. Imagine you are a highland Scotsman!

"pants are for boys, girls must wear skirts and pantyhose" my mom said that as she dug her nails into my legs trying to to pull up my pantyhose, every... Fucking... Time :|

Oh the good old day's of climbing trees

wasn't very fond of skirts. would always wear black leggings if i had to wear one. most of the time i'd wear trousers in school and Jeans / three quarter length shorts while out casually.

I wore skirts quite a lot, but that didn't stop me from climbing trees or having fun. The trick is to tuck the skirt into your knickers 😉

only to grade school. we were allowed to wear pants under our dressesif it was cold but had to take them off

I never saw a girl climbing tree in skirt. 😐

I wore a dress when I was real little but I didn’t climb trees.

Nah but I loved my school summer dresses

I never had to wear one but my mom encouraged me to at least wear one to sunday school in warmer weather

Winter school uniform was a skirt and blouse, summer was a dress. Netball was a skirt too.

Even though I went to public school, girls had to wear skirts and dresses. It was some kind of torture in the wintertime. Then the miniskirts came into being. That was even worse because skirts came abbreviated into stores and the teachers demanded lengths that didn't exist anymore.

Finally, CPS gave in, and girls wore slacks and jeans when I was a high school sophomore. Some wore maxi skirts, which I wore as well.

That seems dangerous. Lol

Went to an all boys school but our twin all girls school, the girls had to wear skirts always, even for gym, they were allowed to wear shorts under them for modesty, field hockey uniforms for the girls had the shortest skirts.

What? No!

Our school uniforms included skirts. Slacks were not allowed for girls back them. We received a special dispensation to be able to wear shorts under our skirts in order to play on the jungle gyms and climb around on the playgrounds, while preserving our “modesty”.

My parents let me wear pant or anything I wanted, mostly jeans. I rarely wore dresses or skirts growing up.

my sister mainly wore skirts , playing out she wore her old gym stuff a lot we never complained lol

stopped wearing em around 12/13. didn't have to, my tastes just changed

No, I didn't.
Wore jeans and tee-shirt, usually.

With the amount of cross dressers on this thread...lol.

What's a skirt?

In school, yes. Slacks for girls were prohibited. On the weekends I could wear them. In order to play on the schoolyard, we were permitted to wear shorts under our uniform skirts, but it practically took an edict from the archdiocese.
