    I'm hearing, off in the distance, dear does this kilt make my butt look too big?

    I've been kilted for 3 1/2 months and have my 10th kilt on order. I've become very concious of what shirts, and hose look good with certain kilts. I have even went to the extreme of developing a kilt schedule on an Excel spreadsheet for what combinations I'm going to where on any given day! I was never this concious about color combinations until I started wearing kilts.

    Have to agree with everybody! And along the lines of checking the rear, it is a must before leaving the restroom where the stop required "paperwork"! Wouldn't want to have some pleats hung up or creased the wrong way! But I still worry if somebody sees me checking!

    It's the same here.I pay very close attention to what matches before I go out kilted.I do the same for work.Back in the days when I wore pants,I never really cared.

    Oh CRAP!!! does this mean I'll have to learn Access when my kilt wardrobe reaches a certain density? Maybe there is a database application I can run on my XBox.

    And yes to the original question-I'm much more aware of what I'm wearing now that I spend so much time kilted.

    Oh good. I thought it was only me. I can't imagine standing in my closet for 5 or 10 minutes deciding which hose goes with what shirt while wearing troosers.

    For your own sanity, put down the mouse and step away from the computer!

    Stay calm. Dr. Freud is on his way.

    He said it's one of the worst kilt addictions he has ever seen, and does not know of any cure. As a result, he recommended that I never again go bifucated because the discomfort will result in another kilt buying spree.

    He did say, however, that 3/4 turns to check your butt while kilted is completely normal behavior

    Oi, I actually started buying shirts places OTHER than thrift stores, because I wanted to make sure I had something that would go with the kilt for particular occasions...

    And yes, I check my butt to see how wrinkled the pleats are.
