My knees aren't the issue.
So I was doing a little volunteer work laying wreaths across veterans graves as part of Wreaths Across America. It may be Northern Colorado, it may be 5000ft in elevation, it may be freezing cold in December, but darn it I'm wearing my kilt to honor these warriors as I'm placing wreaths on their graves. (What Price Honor replica regimental black watch kilt with the extra heavy weight BTW)
Anyway, of course, lots of other volunteers notice; And the number one comment. "You knees must be cold." I'm of course thinking "Sure my knees are a tad brisk but that's not where the real battle against the cold is going on"
I figure this is some sort of awkward politeness in order to not discuss more sensitive matters, but clearly curiosity overcomes them. So I was just wondering if any of you have had the same sort of conversation with those overly concerned about the warmth of your knees while wearing a kilt.
