A traditionally feminine garment. It's a simple tube that can either be tight-fitting or loose and draped. The length is usually anywhere from mid-thigh to floor-length..
Tight skirts can be uncomfortable or difficult to move in, and long skirts can lead to embarrassing situations if it's windy day and especially if the fabric is too lightweight.
Still, they do provide more freedom from the confinements of trousers and provide modesty if a woman must relieve herself outdoors.
Women can also wear leggings underneath skirts for warmth and/or modesty.

Until the Rennaisance, European men often wore a form of skirt, although they probably didn't concider it a skirt.
Nowadays, there's the Polynesian sarong and the Gaelic kilt for men.
