All that info about kilts and still doesn't answer the question of what is worn UNDER the kilt. LOL

If at first you don't suceed.....don't try sky diving.
Women should always think beauty over brains since men can see much further than they can think. :)

ML, you slay me!! :D

At least you avoided the obvious Fruedian trap: "Real men wear skirts! A look UP Male Unbifurcated Garments"

P.S. After two years (including a friend's wedding and one Highland Games event) in Scotland, I know more than any South Georgia swamp rat should ever know about kilts, outside OR inside. consequently, I chickened out on your link. :-D

Sorry, not cool.

While I have worn kilts in the past, when compared to a female of the species a man will lose every time...

I dunno, I think the kilted guys can be pretty sexy. Whenever I see them at a social event, they always have a throng of lady admirers.... :D :-D

My personal favorite - although no one has asked me to wear a kilt - and maybe now you'll know why...

Kind of proves my point. :cool2:

I wore the kilt and raised $3125 in donations for DiveHeart, so I don't feel the slightest bit bad about that. Not something I would toss on every day though. :-D

ML - I flashed lots of folks while diving... :D

OK, so maybe there could be an advantage if men wore kilts, as long as they agree to face me when they lift their skirt! All this teasing will drive a girl crazy! :-D

Careful what you wish for.... I wouldn't want to spoil you for all the single guys... :D

Whoo Hooo! So, the rumors are true.....

I remember hearing a song once around St. Patrick's Day, about a drunk man in a kilt who discovered a blue ribbon tied around it, and thinking it won first prize......
