Male Attorney Wears Skirt To Court
July 25, 2006 06:08 AM
_

A New Zealand lawyer showed up dressed for court wearing a skirt and blouse and carrying a purse.

He's also bald and has a mustache.

Former rugby player and police union official Rob Moodie says he's wearing women's clothing to court to protest the insensitivity of New Zealand's male-dominated judiciary.

Moodie tells The Dominion Post he wants the court to address him as "Ms. Alice" and that his wife and three children support his gender-bending protest.

Umm… I'm not sure what I could possibly add to that story…

This is hilarious...on top of it - he's doing it for a good cause. I'd support it too. Protest away.

If a sarong is ok for David Beckham and we can wear trousers then in the interest of gender equity hes fine to wear a skirt

wonder if his fashion tips are as good as his lawyer skills?

I was thinking the same thing...

and I wonder if he now knows how it feels to try and get a pair of panty hose on without snagging them...

If your dhs decided to make a stand and wear a skirt, would you be that supportive?
