There is an odd argument that comes up every once in a while. It asks that women are not requested to be careful about their modesty.

I would imagine that the "authority" asking assumes that most women know the risks of exposing (and then it's their choice), whereas kilted men may not have that awareness from life-long experience. I have seen some gross examples of this. Heck, I had to learn how to tie my shoes all over again (and how far over can I lean into the trunk on a windy day).

(One of the benefits of this forum is to learn those things somewhere else than a children's playground.)

They have the right to be reassured that you have the same concern.
