    Reversing the question didn't work for me. When I responded to the young 20-something questioner that, as a gentleman, I would never ask a lady what she was wearing underneath, she responded, "a thong," and proceeded to unzip her jeans to show me. I managed to preserve the mystery of the kilt.

    This seems to be becoming more and more the norm of proper social interaction for youn ladies. I guess it can't be helped as they are the second generation that has grown up with TV being their mentor and parent. Since TV has become more repugnant I can't expect young ladies to act any different.
    Please excuse the spelling errors. My IPhone is "helping" me.

    It does seem to be universal.

    At our wedding reception I got asked so many times, and was dared to prove whether I was a real Scot or not.

    It was interesting to see the red faces, especially of the guy who dared me. Every time I bump into him, he still goes scarlet.

    For some strange reason no-one ever dares me any more.

    Its amazing how many guys are interested in what you wear under the kilt, I don't think its anything gay, just that in my opinion most guys would love to be kilted and by asking the question they know that this can open up a discussion about kilt wearing

    I'm not concerned about the questioners being gay or not - I'm perfectly at home with my own sexuality and one of my best friends was a gay Scots ex-RAF officer...and boy did he know how to party!

    I think the guy's embarrassment was more due to the fact I well and truly called his bluff.

    I have to say I agree with the common belief that women like a man in a kilt as he is confident enough to wear a kilt in public and may be the romantism of the 'devils in skirts.
