This discussion has taken an unexpected turn, so I'll add my 2 cents (or two thousand words if I'm not careful). There are several pros and cons to consider:

Now we all know that Dan yields to none in his appreciation of gorgeous legs, but there's another point here, and that is that skirts and dresses
are more feminine than pants, because men don't wear them. Girls still wore dresses when I was in grade school (this was a few years after Dan's schooldays), and I think it wasn't until the 1970's that women sometimes wore pantsuits instead of dresses in the workplace, and girls wore jeans to school. At least for those of us past a certain age, then, skirts and dresses have an appeal that pants don't.
On the other hand, women do wear pants now (just don't let them wear
THE pants in your family), and the popularity of jeans among some spankos reflects in part this change in fashions. It must be admitted there is one other advantage, namely, jeans allow you a pretty good look at the shape of her backside, which is followed in my case about 1/1000 of a second later by the conscious desire to apply some spanks to that portion of her anatomy.
There are practical problems with spanking over jeans, also. First of all, heavy cotton denim is rather hard on the hand. I don't spank over jeans too long because even though I know some sting is penetrating to the region beneath them, I think I'm getting as much as the spankee is, which is not the way it's supposed to happen.

If you spank a girl who is wearing jeans, no matter how hard you spank or for how long, at some point you will have to ask her to stand up and unbutton her jeans so you can pull them down for the rest of the spanking. That's insane. If you are the spanker, at that point you will have LOST CONTROL. Once you let the lady stand up, she is free to run away from you to evade the rest of the spanking. Much better to have her in a skirt from the beginning, so that she can be "unpeeled" by layers, all while she is over your lap and under your control.
I don't think I've ever seen this point raised in a spanking forum before, although some women have admitted to a fondness for long, slow spankings that begin over jeans, but Dan's right: at some point you have to ask her (I don't ask, I
TELL) to unbutton her jeans. This is an awkward moment, though you can maintain control with the proper tone of voice. In one case, the spankee hesitated a little, and then I just unfastened her jeans and took them down myself, but you can see the potential problems. A short skirt avoids these complications since you just flip it up when you're ready (and if you're like me, you take her panties down not long afterward

).
Let's see how
