In case anyone has no idea, the men of Next Generation's early seasons were caught wearing special Manskirts.

Would you want the Manskirt in the C-store as a costume option?

    Well, I'd assume that would come with the package. ;)

    Also, shave your legs, sirs....you gotta look smexy as possible.


    I look at the skant the same way I do with guys in makeup:

    It takes a man to wear makeup....but it takes a REAL MAN to look GOOD in the makeup. ;)

    Why? No one hardly role plays TNG era let alone seasons 1&2 era.

    My TOS toon may be wearing a JJ uniform, but that's because in my headcanon the TOS uniforms ALWAYS looked like that.

    My head canon says the last officially published canon was Star Trek Nemesis and Enterprise.

    I went with the 'No opinion' option. For myself, I don't really have any desire for the skant. I doubt I'd ever have a use for it. But I've no objection to it being added for those who'd like it.
    Live long, and prosper.

    What? No! Women already get a disproportionate amount of skirt based options as compared to male character. We need to attract players back to the male subfaction, and exclusive content is the only way to do this. Otherwise the increase in female characters is only going to get worse. This will inevitably lead to Cryptic focusing on content for females while ignoring the few remaining male characters left in the game. Just go to Q'onos. They're already overrun with stylin' women. Don't let this be the fate of the galaxy.

    I already have more male characters in this game than any other MMO (3, as opposed to none in any other MMO ;) ), I just want the skant to be unisex so I can put it on female Boffs if I ever decided to do a TNG theme on a toon.

    The infamous TNG skant, from the bowels of early TNG.

    I'm down for it. It is, after all a canon uniform, and Cryptic likes canon Fed uniforms. In addition, though the skant is notorious for males using it, it was also used by the females.

    Gene Rodenberry just couldn't quite let go of the skirts, but they weren't TOS short though
    Even Counselor Troi (yes, she is a Starfleet officer) sported it, though rarely.

    These uniforms were Roddenberry's idea. He always had men in togas, skirts and such stuff in productions under his supervision (like several pilots of the essentially same project).
    They were eventually removed from TNG because it made Starfleet's dress-code look silly. Years later, Rick Berman managed to overshadow any previous silliness regarding the SF-dress-code though: in Generations. The crew was like switching uniforms from TNG to DS9 whenever they felt like it instead of doing the switch completely on a specified date. Starfleets Finest - totally unorganized.

    So it being for both genders is canon...something else for me to make claims about unbalanced gameplay will appear soon enough....

    No. Don't care for the design.

    I don't really care one way or the other. Besides, it could be said that the first man kinda in a skirt goes all the way back to TOS:

    Yes, yes and yes again. There are no rules that say the skirt (skant) should be female-only.

    I like a man in a skirt. I'm a leg woman

    Edit: I wouldn't object to it being unisex since it's that way in TNG.
    Now a LTS and loving it.
    Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.
    I have come to the conclusion that I have a memory like Etch-A-Sketch. I shake my head and forget everything. :D

    Also, they should simply be included in the TNG-S1 bündle... instead of making them a seperate purchase.

    Yuck I Roleplay in the 25th century STO timeline.

    "He shall be my finest warrior, this generic man who was forced upon me.
    Like a badass I shall make him look, and in the furnace of war I shall forge him.
    he shall be of iron will and steely sinew.
    In great armour I shall clad him and with the mightiest weapons he shall be armed.
    He will be untouched by plague or disease; no sickness shall blight him.
    He shall have such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe will best him in battle.
    He is my answer to cryptic logic, he is the Defender of my Romulan Crew.
    He is Tovan Khev... and he shall know no fear."

    My Fed main uses the Season 1 TNG outfits for the theme. This will be perfect! It should be used on both women and men.

    It would be good to see Scottish Kilts, and Scottish uniforms in the game. Even as a C-Store unlock. :)
