He might be extremely embarrassed and try to hide. For example, he could run away and find a place to change back into his normal clothes as soon as possible.
He could be extremely resistant at first. He might try to fight back physically or verbally, refusing to put on the dress and getting angry at those who are forcing him.
Some people might be shocked at first. Since skirts are often associated with girls in most people's minds, seeing a boy wear one can be unexpected.
There's a chance he could initially feel very resistant and uncomfortable. However, if he later realizes there's a positive aspect to it, like it being for a good cause such as a performance, he might start to feel more accepting. But at first, it's likely to be a very awkward and unwelcome situation for him.
He could be feeling a whole range of negative emotions. First of all, there's the obvious discomfort. Dresses are not something boys typically wear, so physically it might be uncomfortable. Emotionally, he might be in a state of shock, especially if it was sudden. Then comes the sense of powerlessness, as he has no choice in the matter. He may also feel betrayed if it was someone he trusted who forced him, like a friend or family member. This could lead to long - term trust issues. And on top of all that, he might be worried about the long - term consequences, like being teased or bullied further in the future because of this incident.
He would probably feel humiliated. Wearing clothes and makeup that are not in line with his gender identity in a forced way is a demeaning experience.
There could also be a sense of confusion. If he's young, he may not fully understand why he's being made to wear these clothes. He might start to question his own identity or what it means to be a boy or a girl. This confusion can lead to a lot of self - exploration in the story as he tries to make sense of the situation.
He would probably feel embarrassed. Wearing something that goes against the traditional gender - associated clothing for boys in a forced situation is likely to make him feel self - conscious in front of others.
He might initially be very resistant. After all, it goes against the traditional male clothing norms in most societies. He could try to fight back or refuse to put on the dress.
Perhaps in the story, it was a cultural or family tradition that was misinterpreted. Maybe the family had a tradition where boys and girls had to swap clothing for a certain event as a symbol of equality or something, but the boy didn't want to participate this time and was still forced to wear the skirt.
He could be confused as well. If he doesn't understand why he has to wear the dress, especially if there is no clear explanation given, he might be left in a state of confusion about the whole situation and wonder what he did wrong to be put in such a position.
