    Appropriate? - Not!

    I'm all for encouraging men to wear kilts, generally speaking, the more the merrier. There can, however, be exceptions.

    A couple of days ago I was, with my wife, leaving a very enjoyable Whitney Houston tribute band concert, fronted by Belinda Davis, when I was apprehended by one of the security guys whilst making my way out of the crowded lobby. "Are you traditional?" he demanded in quite a loud voice. I replied with my usual rejoinder to those males I don't know, which usually gets a laugh, "At what age did you first become interested in other men's underwear or lack thereof?" No laughs this time though: " Well are you traditional?", he repeated, " I have a kilt and I am always traditional. You aren't are you, I bet you're not."

    What on earth made him think I would be remotely interested in what he did or didn't wear under his kilt, if he really has one, or why I should wish to discuss the subject with a complete stranger in a crowded lobby? If he is going to go around acting like that when he comes across men in kilts, I sincerely hope he doesn't have one, as it does not reflect well on those who do wear them.

    I won't elaborate on whether or not he would have won his bet.

    If you get a chance to listen to Belinda, she has a great voice and a great stage presence.

    If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!
