It's a bummer that they got rid of the skant so quickly. I wonder if today's fashion would be different if Star Trek continued to show all genders wearing pants or skirts during the height of its popularity in the 90s. Maybe it would have been somewhat normalized for men to wear skirts too.

Dunno if it’s true or not, but I remember reading that Picard brought being shaved bald to the mainstream. So like, folks younger than the thinning hair age would do it.

Again, can’t vouch for if it’s true or not, but if true, it would suggest it might be possible…

… that said, a cool character would probably have to wear one. And not just nameless background extras.
