what not to say when kilted

**pbpersson** · 30th July 06, 05:14 PM

Here is an example of something that I witnessed 15 years ago and it still amazes me today. Now that I'm wearing kilts I cannot imagine ever saying this to another guy, I think it's too weird.

I was a senior programmer analyst and had several people visiting my desk on a regular basis. I already had a very pregnant young woman in my cube, sitting on the floor with her back to the wall I assume because her back was killing her and she needed the support.

Along came this younger woman in this short skirt to ask me a question and before she says anything to me, she turns to the woman on the floor and says, "Don't look up my skirt, okay?" It was like a surrealistic Twilight Zone moment.

To this day I cannot imagine whatever possessed her to say that! I had never in my life nor have I ever since heard one woman say that to another.

She might have been funny that way!

I will never in my life understand why (straight) men are fascinated with what's under the kilt, lassies I can understand, but not men.
I only assume they speak from their own insecurities.

I find myself increasingly bored to tears with all this fascination that everyone seems to have with 'what's worn under your kilt'. And now, it seems to have been moved across to young ladies wearing skirts, as well.

Frankly, I don't give a rat's rectum what any of you choose to wear (or not wear) in the way of undergarments. What difference does it really make to the rest of, in the first place?

I'm a few weeks shy of 52 years of age and never has anyone asked me what I am wearing under my trousers. And the only time anyone has ever asked 'The Question' when I am kilted, it has obviously been in jest. Methinks there are some that make more of it than there really has to be.

"Hey, psssst, buddy... Are you wearing an undershirt under that dress shirt and tie?"

So tell me, do we really have so little to discuss about kilts that we continually have to re-visit 'The Question'?

Yeah, yeah, I know, I'm ranting, but gieusaflippinbreak...

It keeps coming up because there are new folks joining the board. Under the moderators hat just look for transgressions and then ignore it. Many topics rerun as the board grows.

Instead of talking about it we could post pics.

I'll go stand on the corner now.

I think Bubba summed it up nicely.

The rest of the story was that the pregnant woman on the floor didn't say a word but with much effort and work GOT UP off the floor while the young woman just stood there and watched so it would no longer be a problem for the young woman wearing the short skirt.

This just seems very wrong to me now that I'm wearing kilts. If I decide to wear a kilt, regardless of what I wear under it, I cannot see forcing other people to change their lives or sit/stand in a differrent place because of the clothing I choose to wear.
