Mark Brayan, a 61-year-old robotics engineer from Germany, has worn skirts and heels to work for four years to challenge gender norms. “I am just a straight, happily married guy that loves Porsches, beautiful women, and incorporating high heels and skirts into my daily wardrobe,” he shares on Instagram.
Despite his unconventional attire, Mark insists it doesn’t affect his sexuality. He states, “What drives me to dress in skirts is fashion. Comfort. Wanting to be different.” He believes it’s a way to be comfortable and stylish while breaking traditional gender boundaries.
Mark’s colleagues were supportive when he began wearing skirts, noting that his use of heels was already known. “My colleagues were okay when I started wearing skirts. I had already been wearing heels with my pants for some time,” he explains. Even during the pandemic, Mark continued to dress in his signature style, proving his commitment to challenging norms.
