    The only time I've ever been kilt checked it was arranged by a lady friend of long time acquaintance and with my permission.

    But her behavior was just plain RUDE!

    I've been kilt checked a few times over the years. There are two that stand out in my mind. The first happened at a Renaissance party my wife and I hosted. One of our friends had a little too much wine and being bolstered by the liquid courage, she came up behind me and put her digital camera under my kilt. She called the following morning and spent almost five minutes apologizing for her drunken indiscretion.

    The second happened at a fund raiser for brain cancer research. A woman asked to have her photo taken with me. While the photographer was doing his work, she had her hand on my butt. When she thanked me for taking the photo with her, I thanked her for her hand placement. The woman turned a very deep shade of red. My wife and I had a good laugh over it.

    I think the next time someone asks what my husband is wearing under his kilt in my presence, I'm just going to ask what their date wears under his/her trousers.

    My wife occasionally beats me to it. She once had someone believing that I was wearing her thong. She said that she went to the bathroom, asked me to hold it for her, and I just never gave it back.

    The time I was most embarrased was the time I was not even involved. We were at a wedding in Germany where very few people spoke English. The groom's grandfather came up to my wife and asked what was worn under the kilt. In her best German she replied, "With a little luck, Lipstick." When she told me about the conversation, I was mortified. I havew gottewn over it, as I will probably never see this gentleman again. But, my sweet wife saying this, in publc, no less.

    One of my favorite answers to a woman who asks "The Question" is "private showings given by invitation only".

    Last Sunday I was wearing the kilt in church; afterward we had a potluck and I got the question from an older lady, I replied with the shoes and sock line, she turned a nice shade of beat red! She recovered and asked "no really, what's up?" Too which I replied "nothing", another shade or beat red; she didn't quit and asked "well do you or don't you?" to which I said "Yes", after which she found someone else to bother.

    Yeah - I was wearing my Ferguson Brit canadian beaver sporran and a lady (I use the term loosely) asked if she could pat my beaver! (Heh heh)

    Scooby was asked "the question" several times at our canoe clubs party last week. We had rehearsed several of the nine year old appropriate stock answers, but he found himself unable to deliver them in a real time situation.

    When he was younger, young ladies used to ask if they could take my cute toddler home, my standard response was that we were a package deal.
