Heck yes! And it looks really nice too! A long skirt looks very graceful and beautiful when done well. It's also rather sneaky too because you really don't...
Forgive me for being a bit off topic, but..... I would like to inform all of you of all Scadians of the formation of a new users group on for those interested...
Personally I never thought skirts belonged on the list field. When confronted with a skirted opponent I will always refuse to face their armour. Skirts tent...
This might be a kingdom thing - but how are skrits illegal? I know they are specifically called out in An Tir rules that you can wear a skirt, as long as you...
I can't agree with this argument. If you can't access one target, find another. As far as the 'macho' target, what's the point? It's just another target. ...
... Thank you Hawkyns, for saying what I wanted to say much more politely than I would have. I fence in skirts, in pants, in a t-tunic, whatever armor I feel...
I don't know for sure if this thread is serious or in jest. I would hope the latter. However, You state that wearing of a shirt to fight in "prohibit " attacks...
Well, I never really considered it to be a "make the world the same argument". I delight in mismatched styles. One of the many traits I share with the...
Hi there: ... Well, many years ago I saw a lady remove her skirt in the middle of the fight. Does that make the skirt legal? It was closed with velcro, and she...
... I would certainly hope that any lady hit in the leg would acknowledge the blow, regardless of what covers her legs. I've fought (Atlantia, for reference)...
... Just to play Devil's Advocate for a moment. What about someone wearing hoop skirts? Hoop skirts would prevent someone from hitting the legs of a fighter. ...
Are we talking about specific KINDS of skirts, or skirts in general? That makes a big difference, it seems. I can't say that I recall any specific instance...
So apparently I missed the reply to my reply. Neat :) Let me address that, and then go on... ... I do see what you are saying here. I also submit that it is...
Joachim, I must humbly disagree with you on this one. I have been able to perform a draw cut to the inner leg when facing n opponent in a skirt. I really ...
Good point, If I was the marshal on that list I'd deal with each piece of armor individually. If someone pointed out to me (or I independently noticed) a hoop...
Greetings, I must completely AGREE with Joachim about the skirt issue. I am a female fighter and have faced this myself. The point here is not about calling...
Diane, I must admit that most of the skirts I have seen on the field have been fairly billowy and not very tight. I think having clothing differences is more...
Morning All, I have to totally disagree on the issue of skirts interfering with the acknowledgement of good shots. I fight in a mongolian style coat that...

Good gentles, I am recent to this list and am from the Kingdom of the West. Recently, Rapier has been gaining more ground here, especially in the principality...
Sounds some what familiar, doesn't it?!? ;^) How many voices will it take? How many voices has it taken in the past? One, some, or many? Thank you Andrew....
