Like Alan, I don't care if people call my kilt a skirt once or twice. They're nervous and feeling a little inadequate in the presence of a confident kilt-wearing man, so they make a mistake in calling it a skirt.

I usually ask repeat offenders to make a choice. "People who call a kilt a skirt are usually either ignorant or insulting. Which are you?" If they actually come up with an answer - which is rare - you can either educate them or ask them to explain why the feel the need to be insulting. I've never had a conversation go beyond that point.

I like that response. Consider it plagiarized by me
