Verify the tenon is coplaner with the side of the skirt and then verify the mortice is verticle in the leg. If you have a router you can make a guide to pare the mortice sides or look closely and you can see if the mortice is out of square.
It appears in the picture that the bottom of the mortice is further from the edge of the leg than the top. This would open the back of the joint when the tenon was installed.
Also how loose are your tenons.
