First time....getting Marilyned.
So just so I can check my sanity. Would this bother anyone else? I'm relatively new to kilt wearing, on top of that I'm deployed to Afghanistan, and the unit I'm with allows us to get out of uniform when we're not on duty. So last night I'm talking with my 1SG, basically my boss's boss, and I'm in my USA PV MacRae Hunting Ancient, and a guy comes up and flips up my kilt, deciding he wanted to know what was worn under the kilt. Luckily for me I wasn't regimental, probably the only time since getting my kilt I haven't gone regimental. At first I was shocked. I didn't think the stories were true about some people being so disrespectful towards something so important to me as my kilt already is. I guess the only thing that saved the day was the same "progressive" individual was corrected by another team member when he called it a skirt.
Just wondering has anyone else had their kilt flipped up in public by people, and whats the proper way to respond? I just stared the guy down repeatedly asking him "Really, you just did that? Really? Really?" The guy seemed not to understand the breech of decency.
All in all, I've had good experiences with the exception of that one individual.
Anyways I guess it was just good to vent.
