How does one climb a ladder and not expose one's self?

Very carefully... In truth, I was wearing a pair of boxers that matched the kilt. I took the advice of a friend who does Highland country dancing- I wear boxers that blend. That way, people aren't sure what they're seeing, even though they see nothing, and the mystery is preserved.

I have a bad habit of "being at one" with my couch, kilted or not.

Knowing Hawk, I was about to say that he would have worn boxers – and sure enough he did!
It is a precaution worth taking when riding the rails. But having the shorts match the kilt was a master touch.
And, as Derek says, wearing the kilt is something that grows on one.
