getting into an automobile

[pbpersson]

That is, firmly wrap a towel around your Kilt from behind and hold it in place as you sit. Or course, you then need to sit on it the whole time you are in the car.

Well.....if I was at a shopping mall and people were watching to see how a kilted gent gets into a car I would feel sort of silly doing the towel thing.

I have never seen a lady do a towel thing.....

This is SO DUMB! Last weekend I was in Flagstaff and was IN THE CAR with these Scottish guys getting in and out of cars and I totally spaced and didn't pay attention!

The next time I do this I'm going to try getting in like I am wearing jeans and sweep at the same time and see how that works. So far I have been doing a sweep, sit, swivel but it doesn't seem very natural...

It's become kind of instinctive for me, so I actually
had to go out to the car to see how I do it.

I put the keys on the dash, and anything
else I'm carrying on the back seat, so both
hands are free.

I stick my right foot in the car like usual.

In this position I am facing mostly
forward, about 11 o'clock

I sweep with both hands and plop into
the seat a little forward of where I want
to end up sitting.

I'm still facing mostly forward at this
point , maybe even more than 11 o'clock
because my left shoulder has hit the
seat back, but my right is only an inch
or so from the seat back.

I push myself back, turn fully forward and
bring in my left leg all at the same time.

While the left leg is coming in, I lift the
pleats on the left under it so they don't
get caught in the door.

The whole process takes less than a
second, maybe a half a second.

The pleats usually aren't messed up at this
point. I can feel them under my *** if they
are messed up. If they are I usually just
grab the back hem between my legs and
give it a pull to straighten them.

Note: this is the process I use for a squinched
up little toyota. It should be even easier for
almost every other car since they are almost
all bigger. I can't comment on velour seats.
there may be issues with them. YMMV.

Which is one of the reasons I've not tried it yet. :neutral:
