Big **** going one way and big beer gut going the other way is quite a challenge to surmount.

Somehow no one yet has complained of catching a glimpse of my twig & berries though I've was very self conscious of it for the first week or so. About the only shortcoming I've experienced is cold seats (i.e. back of the kilt comes up REAL high when sitting, but nobody but me knows just how high).
And when you sit... You thighs push your gut upward and outward correct? Artificially expanding your waist line and causing your kilt to do the only thing it can. Ride up.

I found a sewing book that **Ahem** deals with ladies skirts. Plus sized ladies skirts. And I learned more about rise and drop. So I have a better understanding of it now. And it does apply to kilts. Anybody can make a kilt for a bean pole, making them for brawny men takes some engineering.

Oh, and one last comment... Rocky, that bit about two tires... Did you just call me the Michelin Man?
