If you don't like the clothes - then say so.
But I suggest keeping the giggly aspersions to thyself.
What say, people??

I don't like the clothes. I don't like the industry that tries to cast doubt upon my masculinity for wearing a kilt, then uses anorexic boys in more feminine makeup than my wife has worn in her life to try and show what they think men should dress like. Facts are facts. Those models are not projecting masculinity, which was the point. Some of us think that men's fashions should project masculinity. I mean, I've got some friends who are full on flaming twinks that would say that the look those models are projecting is just to girlie.

I do not like those clothes, I will not wear those clothes, sorry if anyone took offense at a little (some would say very little) humour.

Since you are speaking your mind, Erisianmonkey, I will speak mine.
I have no connections with the fashion industry but I really do not think it tries to cast doubt upon your masculinity for wearing a kilt! It is the ignorant unwashed members of the general public who might do that.
Also, I take exception to your use of the derogatory expression "flaming twinks" in your last sentence. In this day and age the use of such is nothing but insulting and I would ask you to remember that this is a public forum to which members' children have access.
OK, rant over!
