Dar had the red shorts as her avatar for a while.... poor boys!:eek:
And the red stripe on the jersey matching up with the red at the shorts was a very unfortunate choice.
what a way for Polish cyclers to become famous, eh?
Gotta teach them fellers to leave the podium girls alone!Quote:

I sense a recurring theme! Perhaps we should entreat those of our members who are masculine to show us their kilts?Quote:

Wool Kilt Day :D
Far be it from me to refuse a polite request...

No pictures of me in my tartan kilt.
The condition displayed by the gentlemen above are best dealt with via a sporran.
YAAAAAAY!!!!! A KILT PICTURE!!!!!
Now, Mr. Silver needs to get one!
(so does SKnot, but I can't push the idea... oh no. Just subtly watching my favorite Mock-u-mercials where he could see.)
:eek: :eek: :eek: Actually, I've found that walking comes quite naturally:D :D :DQuote:

Interestingly enough, women show more interest in kilts than men do. Apart from the "what's under the kilt" questions, I hear "my husband was thinking about getting one but..."
I'm starting to believe that wearing a kilt is like getting a tattoo. If you really want to, you'll do it. I do get some odd looks, a few head shakes (as in "man wearing a damn skirt...") and the like.
Some men feel more comfortable with a traditional kilt and a sporran. Looks more kilty somehow.
Lots of kiltic guys and info here:

Lots of good info.

All I can think of is UP, DOWN, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT. :D
That seems to be the consensus. I used to work with an older lady whose husband played in a drum and pipe band. She would expound at length on how manly kilts are and how handsome her husband looked in full kit.
A few other things kilts are good for.
They are nice for changing into and out of shorts without having to wriggle around in the car. I run twice a week and I always toss a kilt in the car so I can change in the parking lot.
I wore a kilt to my vasectomy and lived in it for four days afterward. Snug skivvies are good to wear after getting clipped, but the seams in pants are unwelcome.
Road trips. After the first time I drove down to portland in a kilt, I swore I'd never wear pants on that drive again and I do it at least once a month.
Long movies.
Also, I like wearing a sporran because it puts my wallet, keys, cellphone, etc. in a convenient spot. My UK has lots of pocket space. My tartan kilt has a small pocket in an unfortunate spot. Either way, my sporran puts things in a convenient place.
There is something kinda sexy about your wife trying to have a peek up your kilt, or doing an "underwear check" as you pass in the kitchen.
Plus, zippers on men's pants are the work of the devil.
I am acquainted with and LOVE Kilt Boy, Randall Wallace. He wrote Braveheart. As much as I love my DH, I secretly have a crush on Randall. :D
Why don't you get DH a kilt and pretend:DQuote:

Now that you've mentioned it; yes, that shot of those cute biker boys was photoshopped. I've seen guys in red shorts (and yellow and green) and they just DON'T look like that, sorry.
When I was about twelve there was a guy in Central park wearing a black kilt. My mother and sister and I followed him around trying to see if he was wearing anything underneath it.
I see Randall once a year at an event that I attend. I have a picture somewhere of a girl crawling up to him on her hands and knees trying to get a look under his kilt. :D :D :D
You get used to it.Quote:

Women's fascination with kilted mens undergarments (or lack thereof) is a bit of a mystery to us. I can't imagine walking up to a lady and saying "so what do you have under your dress?" Yet, I've had women I don't know walk up to me in all manner of places and ask that very question. And I've caught women trying to have a sneaky peek in bars, etc.
And that is a nice kilt. I like the sporran too.
Speaking of kilts and Utilikilts, has anyone heard from Hypgnosis06? (Mr. SGTigerKilt, she was the TE'er who worked in the design department of Utilikilt.)
And I also think men in kilts look very manly! I'd rather see 'em in kilts than in cargo shorts. (but I lived in Scotland when I was a kid, so I'm biased.)
And LisaSH, your excellent link not only gave lots of kilt resources, it also explained the droopy drawers that have been in fashion for the last 10-15 years!
I like the Utilikilt answer...tell them you're wearing "FREEDOM" :cool:
(I just saw Braveheart earlier today with SilverSon:D )
Generally, I "fail" to hear the question.
But when forced by circumstance to answer I say "boots" or I just give them my best charming, s&*t-eating grin and walk off. Leave 'em guessing.
I agee! I wonder what my Dad would say if I dated a guy who wore a kilt? :rolleyes:Quote:

If the worst my daughter ever does is bring home a guy in a kilt, I'll be happy.
I think the kilt would go over "okay", just as long as his hat isn't on backwards! lol :pQuote:

I think some of those guys have been "enhanced" via photoshop. What really gets me are the dudes with white shorts. yuck!
I thinbk it simply depends on the thickness of the shorts' material. I've tried on women's lycra shorts (black) that were VERY thin and revealing, whereas other shorts materials are thick and nicely cover up "too much information" issues.Quote:

Mmmmmm, guys in kilts. And yes, there is a curiosity for the wrapper underneath...or, even better, possible lack thereof....
c'mon wind!
excellent! use it with gusto!Quote:
