That's a good point. "Skirts of his garment" - end of the garment. Thanks for that! (Sincerely)

But still, "skirt" is worn by BOTH male and female. There are men's "skirt" and women's "skirt" in the Bible.
Male
Psalms 133:2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;
Female
Lamentations 1:9 Her filthiness is in her skirts; she remembereth not her last end; therefore she came down wonderfully: she had no comforter. O LORD, behold my affliction: for the enemy hath magnified himself.

The following questions come to mind:
1. If "skirt" means end of the garment, do these passages mean men's "end of the garment" and women's "end of the garment"?
2. Since "father's skirt" (in Deut) refers to "wife" and he wore no skirt, does it mean then that since "her skirts" in Lam. 1:9 refers to a nation (and a country wears no "skirt"), therefore, no woman wears any skirt?
