Essentially everyone used to wear skirts, then when horseback riding became a thing men started wearing pants and heeled boots for better grip on the horse. Than high society women liked the looks of heels so they started wearing them. Pants are essentially the sign of a “working man/women”. In the 1940s when WW2 was affecting essentially everyone, men got shipped off to war and the women had to work in the factories, that’s when women started wearing pants and stopped wearing heels as much. It’s a mix of function and trends basically. Wearing skirts are now “trendy” for men according to the recent met gala photos.
