    One of my favorite come backs to jeers about kilts being feminine is, "If I wanted to dress like a woman I'd wear pants."

    I don't think my wife owns a skirt, or a dress for that matter, The only thing that comes close is the Mumu in the closet from our last (2007) trip to the islands; which she has not worn since then. In fact here I am at my computer in my SWK saffron and she just left the house in pants! Oh well to each their own. ith:

    Sorry but not in our household... we both wear kilts... but then we are both male and Civil Partners... so who wear the trousers?... that's a difficult one to answer... depends on which of us you ask!

    Where's that great cartoon that was posted a short while ago, the one about the Scot and the trousered woman entering the men's and women's washrooms? This is a good place to resurrect it. (I mean, I could find it myself but have no idea how to repost it.)

    My wife always comments that she spent most of her life trying to not have to wear a skirt, and now I prefer to wear one! Actually, in the past couple of years, she's started wearing skirts again during the summer. So we both do now.

    Cool.

    Though I can see how that might lead to arguements over accessories if you share.

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…

    Last weekend I was walking along when two ladies accosted me asking, "Why are you wearing a kilt?" I pointedly looked down at their trousers and then back up at them and said, "Someone has to." They giggled and walked on.

    Maybe the women at the ceilidh weren't comfortable wearing skirts since they knew they'd be kicking up their heels and twirling around.

    When given a choice, most people will choose.
