So it's not a skirt (or maybe it is). And the point is...?

[Joe Gondek]

As far as being compared to a woman...there are a great many men I know who I would rather not be comapred to, and some women who are so great that comparing me to them would be a disservice to the woman in question..

as long as I'm not compared to the drunken moron slobering on himself, hunched over in the corner at the pub, I'll be fine.

Well said

Gee...to your hazing office mates I'd have to say about the same thing that I'd say to anyone who ridiculed the kilt: Sorry, I've graduated high school and moved on....go find somebody else to play with.

One of the things that comes to my mind when this topic comes up is that most of the people that I've known who have had real gender issues would probably be able to suss out the fact that a kilt wearer considers it a masculine garment. I think that folks in that situation are pretty perceptive about things like that. It's the insecure people who are trying to get a cheap laugh or a reaction out of the kiltwearer who seem to have the problem. Those folks I can do without.

Best
