... to put them in the sporran!

Cheers, Graham.

Edit: Hey! I just became a Kilted Samurai! HYAH!!!! *dork* lol

You guys crack me up!

Seriously though, I thought that WAS the purpose of the sporran! I mean why else would it be located there?
...and by the way you can also carry your wallet, keys, cell phone, etc. in the sporran.

Prick yourself with the kilt pin. Your problem should go away.

That sounds like one prick too many. I think if the sporran doesn't do the trick, I'd go for the more unabashed approach - "Ach, look what you've done now, lassie! You've gone and woke the Loch Ness Monster!"

"How does one deal with situations in a kilt where one's 'state of affairs' would be quite obvious to all onlookers were he wearing pants? Or to say it differently, does one truly 'tilt his kilt' and if so, is there a standard for preventing embarrassment?" This question might be rather obvious to most of you but as a soon-to-be new kilt-wearer, this question has come to mind more than once.

Again, let's try to keep this civil... I did not start this thread to send everyone back to grade 6. Otherwise, all input is appreciated!

I dont care if people see what I have got under my kilt, more luck for them.

I will simply say that with a properly weighted and placed sporran there has never been anything apparent to the casual observer, whereas once the setting made the removal of the sporran appropriate the 'tilt in me kilt' was impossible to hide.

As for "when" this changes, I can only say that at 55 years of age and 30 years of marriage to the same attractive lady everything is in "perfect working order".

As another aside...has anyone else noticed that single malt scotch in moderate amounts is a very effective...um, stimulant? YMMV

There by supporting the answer to "What is worn under the kilt?' that is usually given by one of my un-kilted (and thus, in my opinion, unqualified to give any answer) buddies: "Nothing is worn...everything is in perfect working order."

It still isn't funny, though...

My suggestion to those who are not born wearing a kilt is to wear it in the home for several days to get used to the "feel" of it. This will make the transition to kilt wearing easier and give you the chance to adjust your kit to fit your comfort and needs.

This is very, very good advice. I did this for a while before wearing my kilt out in public, and I'm glad I did. It takes a while to get used to the feel of air moving around down there, as well as the different pressures (or lack thereof) on your equipment. Get used to it at home first. This will solve 90% of the problem.

Lecherie, Sir, it prouokes, and vnprouokes: it prouokes the desire, but it takes away the performance. Therefore much Drinke may be said to be an Equiuocator with Lecherie: it makes him, and it marres him; it sets him on, and it takes him off; it perswades him, and disheartens him; makes him stand too, and not stand too: in conclusion, equiuocates him in a sleepe, and giuing him the Lye, leaues him.
