    I think all men's body types look good in kilts.
    What I find disgusting is men wearing kilts that are way too short.

    I find a well-fitting kilt with sexy legs attractive. I am jarred by colours that don't feel like they should go together.

    I think a man clad in a proper tartan kilt worn properly looks fantastic! Provided he is a Scot and the kilt is being worn in Scotland.

    I am afraid that I can only look at men dressed in kilts(civilians) outwith Scotland and particularly non tartan kilts, with mild amusement tinged with sadness.

    I find men who are self-assured, confidant and well put together in a kilt to be very attractive. Prince Charles, Sir Sean Connery, and my guy are three examples of this with three very different styles.

    Then, Mrs. Jock, do feel welcome to look at me, being a civilian, a non-Scot, a man not living in Scotland, and sometimes also wearing non tartan kilts the way you describe.

    I like to watch a man walk with a well made kilt on and enjoy the "sway" of the pleats.
    I dislike seeing kilts shoved down under bellies and riding high in the back because of it.

    Calves - nice looking calves on a man are my kryptonite, I'm totally undone by them. In a hose or not, its all good (though I think of chunky wool hose as the 'wonder bra' for men- false advertising! ;) ) Men is shorts do not have as much affect oddly enough.

    But some other ladies have hit the nail on the head- confidence.

    What is not to like? Well, I get miffed at 'ren-fair shirts' with the puffy sleeves and the drawstring neck. No thank you. I like the casual look, formal is beautiful but a tad intimidating, but no puffy pirate shirts, please.

    Ladies,
    Please pardon my intrusion. I have asked my wife to review this thread and encourage her to provide her thoughts. She is reluctant.

    I knew that one of our gentlemen would comment eventually (which I felt would be unnecessary). Alas it has happened and resolved with great decorum. My Thanks for that.

    I believe my wife feels she also may be questioned on her views. I personally am interested in all opinions (pro, or con, even strange). Please continue with your postings. Gentlemen, encourage any women to contribute.

    Good Day to all.
