Double-standards, much?

Skirts, something commonly accociated with women, are fine. Moustaches, facial hair typically displayed on men and a sign of increased masculinity, are not.

Again, most Gundams have beards.

They almost all have "skirt" armor, crests, and vents that look like a samurai's layered armor. Even if they aren't samurai-like in fighting style, the design elements are there. I'd hazard a guess that in Japan, samurai-like design features are associated with warriors in general.

But they're not samurai. It's still just as irrelevant a design choice.

Dragons are also considered Gods and holy spirits in Japan, and royalty often grew moustaches. Turn A's supposed to be Godly-powerful, and even his name references the "Universal quantifier" of physics.

Dude every reason you got I got two better ones.
