I really hope that's not the case!!
I'm just not comfortable in skirts. I wear pants to the office and pantsuits to interviews. I'll wear a skirt or dress for a wedding, a nice dinner out, etc., but 99.999% of the time I wear pants.
I don't know that I could bring myself to don an uncomfortable skirt that restricts my range of motion just because it's "the norm."
Hey, most IT professionals don't wear skirts
