    While I don't think of mine as protuberant , the differential between waist and seat is enough (8-9 inches) to have Rocky call
    me to double check before cutting fabric _ "Is there some reason you have such a big a$$?". No, just, for a guy, a small waist.
    As a result, kilts seem to hang differently. Similar to Chas, and on advice garnered here, I keep a towel in the car. Standing facing away from the seat, I stretch the towel across behind me, sit and swivel. I typically do not attempt to extricate the towel,as it
    sits flat beneath, and would disturb pleats on the way out. Feels a bit silly, but functions well.
