P.S. No you're not being told "lies" per se, it's just that he's so enamored by you that he's willing to prevaricate somwhat. He sounds like a great guy, and I'm sure he just wants you to look your best because he is so proud of being seen with you.

(There is that male code, you know.)

Sorry if this is

Hi, LeeAnne – clearly your man is either being naughty or is daring you to do something outrageous.
Not that outrageous is necessarily wrong.
As Anne points out, short garments for women are a modern invention. So are underpants.
You are free to put on underpants or not to, as you feel appropriate.
I am perfectly happy to go regimental in my kilt, but you may feel at risk of exposure.
Certainly if you wore a longer skirt, nobody would know.
And if you wore a petticoat or two (with either kilt or long skirt) you would be that much better protected.
It’s your choice to go regimental or not to, to dump the guy or to play along with his playfulness.
Regarding the sporran, there is no law that forbids women from wearing it. But except where uniformity requires it (as in a pipe band) there is no reason why women should wear one. A man obviously does need to have one on. Suit yourself.
At any rate, I hope you have fun at the ceilidh!
Regards,
Mike

Nice reply

I have enough speaking this funny language all day, without connecting to XMarks to do more of the same!

I don't blame you my friend. I'm an old English teacher, but I speak reasonable French, useable but atrocious German, and have studied Latin and Hebrew . . . but I do like articulate and proper English.

Wow! What a lot of replies! I checked back thinking, wonder if anyone responded and 50+ posts!

This is a little embarassing, I feel stupid because he told me he was only kidding about the underwear thing, for girls anyhow. I think I kind of knew all along as it wouldn't be very, um, ladylike?

He read this thread and I just got a text saying he's bought me a present. I'm hoping they're nice!

This post is meant completely in jest, but it must be said:

"Pics or it didn't happen!"
