Wore a Kurta to my son's wedding, looking for an opportunity to wear it to work!
They can look really smart, imo.Although, doesn't entirely relate to the question here, because Kurtas are worm with trousers.
To answer the question myself, my answer is that yes, I would. I'm Scottish and wear a Kilt on occasion, and enjoy it, so if men's skirts became a widespread thing, I'd be onboard with it.

I’ve worn mine to work for Holi and Indian national day, only with the pajamas. Still haven’t had the bravery to wear a dish dash to work, was hoping one of my Arab colleagues would do so to set a precedent, far to sweaty weather wise at the moment to be wearing western attire.
Apologies to IJWS15!

Back in the 70's our company rulebook required Gentlemen to wear "Suits, shirt, collar and tie and conventional footwear" while ladies could wear "suitable office dress". When the Sex Discrimination Act came into force this of course had to be the same for all staff, ie "suitable office dress"..
Our Area Manager sent a memo round stating, "In case any male members of staff are wondering what constitutes 'suitable office dress'.it means that gentlemen will wear "Suits, shirt, collar and tie and conventional footwear". On one particularly hot day (1976?) in an office without aircon, he instructed that gentlemen could "loosen their collars"!

Grew up in an al male household. It wasn't until I started dating that I found out that a dress and a skirt aren't the same thing, I wasn't used to these differing definitions and I still get it wrong to this day in terminology. Would I wear one? ... nah no f
king chance. But if you want to go right ahead I'll not judge. Honest, I won't. Ok I will as will everyone else but that's my predisposition and not your fault it's mine. Wear it. flaunt it, and be weird about it.
Scottish excepted of course, they've a history of being weird that makes weirdness normal. I've kept the engine running.

I wear shorts to work, which seem generally more practical (I spend a small but appreciable amount of time at work crawling around laying cables), so probably not.
I've always had a lot of respect for the school boys who, when faced with a summer uniform of long trousers, wear skirts instead.
