How does pants not work for that? How is that exclusive to females?

They're incapable of going to the lavatory if they wear something other than a skirt?

Skirts could make that easier for boys. So could not wearing clothes. Even then, that's not a reason to make them wear skirts if they don't want to, right?

The need to shave your legs, perhaps? No shaving required if you wear pants.

So far then, the score is pants 1, skirts 0.

If you wanna wear a skirt, wear a skirt. If you wanna wear pants, wear pants.

Close the stall door and pull your pants down. Unless I've been severely misled regarding female anatomy, that should work just fine.

This can be an argument for almost anything, you know. Tradition =/= better. (I say this as a mild Conservative, even!)

They're arguably easier to take out.

Her argument works more for us than for them, though.

Who gives a logical fuck about crappy tradition?
Explain what needs females have that are fulfilled by wearing skirts, and the need(s) is exclusive to females.

Oh, well that makes the BIGGEST DIFFERENCE in the world. I guess all females have to wear skirts now. You hear that, everyone? "You there! Young Miss! Take those pants off immediately and put on a skirt! There are, like, children here!" :lol2:

If you are male, you can sit in the toilet with your clothes and urinate just getting it out of your briefs, without touching what touched the butt of other people.

Not-standing urination = more hygienic and comfy, more egalitarian, unconsciously teaches boys to not act like they're street dogs who can pee just everywhere
