Yes.

If you're walking up the steps at a moderate speed (carefully) and not bounding up them with your sporran bouncing off your forehead. Most kilts are heavy enough that they don't fly up that high...the sporan helps keep the front down.

Consider that my first "kilted outing" was to the Apple Computer Store in Chicago and I had to go up to the second floor which is reached by a GLASS staircase in the middle of the store. (I just looked at it and thought "oh, well!" and walked up.)

There is a tendency that we all have - whether we are wearing a kilt or not - to assume that a whole lot more people are paying attention to us than there really are. And should the "worst case scenario" occur, I seriously doubt that anyone is going to yell out that they spotted your tallywhacker while you were ascending the stairs...unless of course you are at a drunken frat party or somesuch similar event...in which case it isn't going to make much difference even if they do.

We should start a sub-forum called "Ask Aunt Kilty" to field these questions...model it on the "Ask Uncle CJ" column at firstfoot.com.
