This is one of those things that you only read about online and never see if real life. That said, I want a pink one.

Ah, well...the dirty harry quote was only appropriate because of the phrase "A man's gotta know his limitations." I didn't see the entire movie, but I saw a segment, wherein he used it not having to do with masculinity at all, as I understood it, but just regarding another police officer's ability to function in a working police force. And then again at the end of the film.
My company hands out clothing now and again...usually long-sleeve jersey-knit material, like a t-shirt, with safety slogans on them. I have never worn one, and would just as soon they don't give me one. It has nothing to do with masculinity, but taste. I don't like the look, and don't appreciate someone telling me what slogans to parade around in. If it is a company uniform, I could see it, but if they are just trying to campaign for safety, I was committed to it before I ever heard of this place, and the t-shirt things aren't going to enhance my personal record.
My wife thinks kilts look great. I am quarter Scots, but evidently it isn't sufficient, because I will never wear kilts, either.

That dude is floating miles above any of our fashion criticism. He's a serial title collector in football ("soccer"), a world champion, enormously wealthy, in his twenties, good-looking and sharp-brained. I don't think he cares what a bunch of bass geezers like us think about his choices...

Functionless Art is Merely Tolerated Vandalism
My uncle was in the Seaforth Highlander regiment in WWII....
He told me that the German's called them "Devils in skirts".....
The most important question regarding rompers: Are you a toddler? If yes, go for it. If no, rompers look dumb. It doesn't matter which gender, they look dumb unless you're a toddler. That's my personal opinion and everyone is welcome to agree or disagree with me.

So DIM, how's the fit? Is the fabric breathable?
It feels like I'm wearing nothing at all. I'd share pics but I don't want anybody to get "stupid sexy @DiabolusInMusic " moments.
Given that these things have to be dropped to the knee in order to perform basic bodily functions, and given that most men's room are significantly dirtier than their female counterparts, one is left to wonder if the 10 guys that actually wear these things will have issues with "soilage".
I do as well and it doesn't even bother me that people refer to me as a RV driving 70's grandpa.
They also declared bagpipes a weapon of war as well. 1/4 Scot as well but don't have the "courage" to wear a kilt.My uncle was in the Seaforth Highlander regiment in WWII....

I wonder if they come with pockets for both your selfie stick AND your beard grooming products?
Traditionally, the perception of same is affected to some degree by attire. That's been the case for generations. A lavender sequined suit with a matching feather boa won't make your Y chromosome disappear, but it might make people think first of Liberace instead of, say, John Shaft.
And the changes that have come, came because we figured out women like them. Acceptance of long hair is an example. Plenty of women are attracted to a dude with long hair. Plenty of women might want to sit down and share some chamomile tea and their thoughts with a guy who wears a jumper, but they probably aren't omgz attracted to him. That might change over time, but it probably won't happen overnight.
From a guy that wears coveralls to construction sites it just takes careful planning.
Funny thing is that my uncle wasn't in the least bit Scottish!....
A Londoner through and through....
No idea how he ended up wearing a kilt in a Highland regiment.....
Have you ever had the misfortune of seeing a female restroom? The horrors, man - the horrors...
Obviously his round objects were too large to fit into trousers!Funny thing is that my uncle wasn't in the least bit Scottish!....
