Almost rude encounter.

In cormacmacguardhe's case I would hope I would have the fortitude to just walk away, but in Ron's case I would have bobbed that guy on the head!

The last time I wore my kilt around people from work (this was at a bar) someone behind me started to raise the back of it. Without even looking I swung a backhand down at that level and caught them on the wrist....HARD. Turned around and it was one of the guys and he had a very surprised look, asked what that was for. I asked him if it was ok for me to drop his pants. He is very dark complected but I could still see him blush and his answer was, you're right...sorry.

Ya done good, ya done REAL good but a closed fist swung the same way in the same manner catching him on the jaw would have been so much better a lesson.

I can't think of any reason a guy would want to peek up the kilt ( gay bars excluded, but guardedly so). A swift slap and glare has almost always been a successful at deterring people from messing with you.

Was in town today with my wife, just running some errands, and we stopped at a local supermarket for some lunch and some shopping. While walking through the store I noticed this trio, two men and a woman. Did not think too much of it until we stopped by the seafood section. I overheard one of the men telling the woman, "just walk past and give it a quick flip, that's what we did in grade school to the girls." Luckily for all concerned the woman wouldn't do it. Now these were not young people, they were probably in their 30's. My wife and I just walked away, I have no time for the adolescent antics of grown men playing at being kids.

I wear my kilts every day. I'm also in a band and wear them onstage and constantly have women trying(and some succeeding) to flip it up... I do not mind one iota!!

I have a handgun carry permit. Think it'd be wrong to wear a holster on my kilt belt? Maybe that would deter some of the lookeeloos...

The SWK Nightstalker sporran can hold a pistol. THey even have a video demo of such.

I'll admit in certain circumstances I don't mind so much.

However, what irritates me is that some people seem to think that just because you wear a kilt, they somehow have a right to do these things. Those are the ones that need the thumping.

Maybe, but the guy was actually one of the good ones at work and had had a few before he got there. It was not something he would normally have done.

I know what you mean. It's the double standard thing. Lifting up a woman's skirt/dress would get you thrown behind bars for a while but someone lifting your kilt just gets a laff.
