You missed the option 'Yes' with no caveats.

I don't particularly like ties as they serve no function but unfortunately convention dictates that we must wear them. Therefore to me they should say something about you. Either school, club, regiment, clan etc or something about your taste or style.

To quote the Prince Regent in Balckadder: 'Life's too short to wear boring trousers', its also too short to wear boring ties!

I would generally try to avoid nylon ties or nylon anything else but some of my Regimental ties came in a choice of nylon or nylon.
