					My Pittsburgh Kilt and Bear Kilt with traditionally wide aprons would probably have flashed the family jewels under those conditions.  
 The narrow apron of the Utilikilts falls neatly between the legs and keeps private matters private.

 ....first found in a 1946 book about fighter pilots in WWII, in a euphemized form: "He displayed a rump-over-tea-kettle aggressiveness in seeking dog-fights." It's a variation of a saying that goes back to the late 19th century.

					When my friend and mechanic married his future ex-wife (God willing) I didn't intend to wear that darned tux for longer than I had to. This was in the years BK (Before Kilted) and I had my comfy jeans and boots in the car and wore my white boot socks with the dress shoes.The photgrapher asked if we all had black socks on, I said hell no and hoisted the slacks.
 I'm not intending to invite either to my wedding as formal kilts will be required for my side of the wedding party, **** over teakettle athletics hopefully not included.
