Funny... but you do know of course that men's sarongs are folded back up between the legs and tied off at the waist if you see what I mean -probably because of just the reason you mention- so that they are actually closer to comfortable shorts than to skirts, which the women's sarongs are pretty close to indeed, since most of those are not folded back.
Or are we thinking of different types of sarongs? Possibly the way it's worn varies depending on which country we are thinking about? The above applies to most countries of South-East Asia, I am not familiar with any other type of sarong.
Or possibly the garment in question was closer to a kilt? :D
*I know, I know, nit-picking on details... can't help myself! At least I do not know anything about kilts, so it could be worse!*
