    Demure is not the first adjective people associate with her....
    Brilliant, glad I wasn't trying to drink my tea when I read that, still smiling.

    Shame she didn't capture the shocked look on your face on her phone.

    Not proud of it.

    At my stepson's wedding reception, my stepson's overbearing shrew of a stepmother had heard that I wear the kilt, (I was not kilted at the time,) and told me that her husband, (my wife's ex,) was interested in getting a kilt and she asked me the question. It was a knee-jerk response, (I swear.) I said...............lipstick. She turned and walked away from me without a word. I don't know these people very well and was worried that I might have started world war III so I told my wife what I had said. She still laughs about it.

    On the few occasions the question has arisen in the presence of my wife, she simply asks them what they are wearing. That illicits either and embarrassed laugh or an embarrassed retreat. In one instance, with a middle aged male, it earned him a mouthful from his wife.
    If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!
