    I think it may be the case that women in our culture are not used to being outshined by their men. Because the kilt is still considered unusual garb on men in the North America, kilt-wearers tend to stand out like the strutting rooster or brilliantly colored peacock.

    Wink

    It is changing a bit now a days in "main stream" culture. However, there are plenty of sub cultures, in the U.S. for example, that have bland females and bright colorful men. Some are just all bland or all bright and colorful as well. I kind of like rooster feathers.

    Ya Tommie, I don't do so well with all that chest beating, bravado talk, and strutting, so my friend is really just teasing me. She did pick out the rooster theme, though. I guess it works.

    Yep I know what ya mean Ted.

    Ya know what the only thing this group is lacking.A live Chatroom.
    Met and made a lot of friends in Chats.
    But of course having people from all over the globe,it makes it kinda tough to meet everyone in a chat unless you stay up 24 hours a day.

    This is the only forum or anything like that that I am on. I tried a live chat room out on AOL once, but it was more than I could deal with; too much going on at one time. That would be because I'm blind, so I can mostly only look at one line at a time on the screne. I like it here though. It's lots of fun, and I really do feel like I have found some friends. Guess it helps that everything's a bit slower and stuff in my case.

    Yeah some chats can get out of hand and need constant montoring.(Sigh)

    I was a Chatroom host on MSN for several years an you had to go to the room assigned you on certain nights.
    Lets just say-some of those rooms many nights I would have rather been doing something else.
    And it is hard to keep up with the conversation with so many trying to talk at one time.It soon got old and boring.
