    I served 21 years as a soldier, I learned all of the soldier stuff including how to sew, mend my own socks, press my clothes, wash dishes and pots and pans, make my bunk/bed, clean my room to the point that someone wearing a white glove couldn't find any dirt. My point? since the ratio of servicemen to civilians is so small I can say that if necessary I can make war better than most men because that was my job and what I was trained to do and today I can keep a house just as good if not better than a woman.
    Meaning no offence to womenkind I have to say that if a man cannot do what a woman can do how can he call himself her equal?
    I find no disgrace in having the ability to maintain my own clothing, I work hand in hand with my wife, as she holds a regular job as well and I help her gladly do the laundry, wash the dishes, vacuum, etc., but also on my off days or when I forget to take my "chill pills" as my wife calls them I am still able to put some smart *** flat on his *** if need be.
    Sorry, but I have to laugh at the clown who tries to put the kilt down in any way because this clown doesn't know what I know nor is he able to do what I can do. That in my opinion makes the clown only half a man.

    Chris.

    One of my co-workers calls it a skirt. She does know that it is more precise to call it a kilt, and has even corrected other people who call it a skirt, but when we are talking about it she still calls it a skirt. I really don't mind that, because she means no disrespect. That's just the way she is.
