Going upstairs while regimental

[longshadows]

Not to run this topic into the ground, but we are generally incorrect in what we believe people see.

1. Most people are not paying any attention to you in the first place.

2. They would have to be right underneath and looking straight up (maybe with a flashlight).

3. It's dark up there.

4. Unless you're walking bow-legged with a spotlight on your crotch they won't see anything more than a bit of thigh.

5. Wearing anything other than dark bikini briefs will only draw attention to that area and make you look ridiculous.

6. If someone wants to learn the nature of your under-vesture, they will, but that's a far cry from "flashing." Discerning whether or not there be any undwear up there and actually seeing the family jewels is a very different matter. Just keep you legs together and walk with poise (I know, men don't usually learn those skills growing up!) and nobody's gonna see nuthin'

Relax and enjoy life!

yup, unless someone is purposefully trying to get a look under the kilt, odds are that they won't see much more than a bit o' thigh just above the knee, unless of course you are of the sort that needs to wear your kilt a bit longer than most.

Some mens kilts are longer than others! Has your mother been telling stories about me again lads?

Glass stairs in a computer shop in Chicago? That strikes me as very odd. What about women in skirts? I thought glass stairs were only a figment of the imagination so that the fairer sex could continue to be both fairer and modest. Fair to say that when in Chicago, one can see London and France?

Anyway, I have always been very confident on stairs (well the non-glass kind), but last summer at the local highland games, confronted by bleachers (stadium seats) I lost my nerve. The idea of climbing stairs with people sitting on either side, some being children and many looking bored ... Anyway, we found some good sits in the front row. Is it likely that people can see up your kilt from a seated position on bleachers as you climb the stairs?

Not if your sporran is in place.

[Kilted KT]

I'm with Iolaus on this. Unless you are wearing a tank or 5yrd traditional WITHOUT a sporran, you are almost certainly not going to show anyone anything. It is the very gifted man that the weight of a sporran can't keep his kilt down.

And those who wear tanks or traditional kilts without a sporran need a talking to. Unless you are tossing a kaber, I can't think of a reason why you wouldn't have a sporran.

Well, to be fair, in regards to the original question of stairs, some of us have the sporran swung over to the side when we're walking (especially if it's a fully loaded Freelander; those things can hurt a man!), but yeah, it gets centered when I'm sitting.

Yes, but they are very nice stairs.

Those are pretty cool!

OK, with the opaque glass on the tread, it seems unlikely that anyone would get a glimpse of the "good stuff". But, as with ascending the bleachers at the highland games, I think I would loose my confidence.
