Longee's for Men; Skirts for Women

In Myanmar, I found that both men and women wear lower clothing made from a wrap around cloth. These cloth coverings are not interchangeable between men and women, so I don't think there is any gender confusion in this form of dress. The men wear longee's and they are tied in a knot in the front center, where a belt buckle would rest.

Women's skirts are tied differently, and are perfectly smooth where the men tie with the knot. The ladies secure their skirts via a strip of cloth extending from the top of the skirt that is attached via a clip to one side.

I find both genders dress very modest and beautiful. It is so nice to see modesty in these beautiful people. Just as a guess for the average general public: 70% of men on the street wear longed's and perhaps 90% of women wear beautifully colored, long and very modest skirts.


Now the question is, should I get a longee to wear to the wedding we will attend here on Monday? Leave your votes as comments!
