    I wore my kilt to work on a holiday last year and all I got was a comment front from our HR manager. She looked at me and said, " You better be wearing underwear!". Now how illegal is that?

    As far as I know, very. Just as bad if a man asked a woman "the question".

    I do hate how it's horribly offensive to ask a woman "the question" (not that I would or want to), but when a man wears unbifurcated garments, it's all anyone can think of/talk about. It's a huge double standard that I wish would go the way of the dodo.

    From the HR manager of all people! If you work in a federal capacity, you should have some sort of EO department, personally I would report each and every person who asked me what I was wearing "under there".
