"Appropriate Office Attire"

[Mike_Oettle]

The discomfort in trousers is not so much the fit as the boxed-in effect on the “wedding tackle”.
For decades now I have worn boxer shorts under my trousers, because they are more comfortable than tight underwear.
Tight underwear was what I was used to as a boy and in the early years of my marriage, but I eventually developed a fungal rash and my doctor recommended boxers.
Yet even with boxers I find a degree of discomfort, especially with sticky sweat.
I have tried going commando with trousers, but it is risky. And since I often forget to zip up my fly (I am rather absent-minded), the risk of embarrassing myself or of offending someone is that much greater.
Thinking back to my time in the regiment, I recall that I did not experience that discomfort when wearing the kilt, and I wonder that I have put up with trousers all these years.
Regards,
Mike

I don't work in an office, much, I work out in the desert. Office attire to me includes shorts and soon, a kilt as well. Since I carry Leatherman or Gerber tools for my EDC (Every Day carry), and often a folding Buck, I could possibly get away with the Sgian Dubh. BUT, while my immediate supervisory staff is aware of the my plans, I don't know what Senior staff will think. So I will have normal cargo shorts on hand in case... Of course, there are days I have to go to the main offices, and jeans are more than appropriate. Although, I would imagine a kilt would be fine in that case as well.
