    Welcome to X-Marks! To answer your question, lift and go is RIGHT! That's just one of the advantages the kilt has over pants. And stick with the stall rather than a urinal. To be blunt, it's easier to keep your kilt free of both porcelain and backsplash.

    With a crowd in the loo, I prefer to use the stall for modesty.. as pointed out, you are already the center of attention...lol

    Since it's a Utilikilt you have 2 options.

    1) Lift and go.
    2) Left hand on top apron just under the snaps, pull to left. Grab bottom apron with right hand (again, just under the snaps) and pull to right. Open like a curtain. Do what comes natural.

    Believe me. You'll figure something out rather quickly after a few pints!

    Don't care what I look like, just as long as I don't get "backsplash"..on wool kilts tends to bead up and wipes off, on acrylics soaks right in. TMI?

    I've kilted for about a year now and yep, "lift and go" and "using the stall for modesty" is good advice and how I personally conduct "kinetic operations". No matter where you go kilted you WILL BE the focus of attention, and a stall just makes things more relaxed and averts "stage fright!" One time while in a pub here in Jacksonville, Florida, the only stall didn't have a door. So, I did a lift-and-go at the only urinal as a guy started to walk in. He sees me and immediately circles and leaves!!! It MUST'VE looked strange from behind , LOL!!!

    When I was much younger, I knew a young woman who could....errr... stand with the best of the lads. She'd willingly compete for distance and/or accuracy after a few pints.

    I just move my sporran to the side and lift my kilt when visiting the lavertory.
    It can be pretty annoying attempting to do this infront of people the first few times so I'd say go in the cubical for now.
    It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

    The best reason for using a stall is so you don't have to turn around to a bunch of guys watching to see how you pee! This seems to be quite a point of curiosity with some folks, right up there with 'the question' !
    On a few occasions I have had guys actually ask me; "How do you 'go' in that?" My answer to that of course, is "Easy"
