A story of Kilted Attention or: Why I can't go commando!

[Jackson]

I'm loving reading these stories and am building my repertoir of responses. I love the one, "Why, shoes and socks, maam!" That's great. I'm a relative newby and have only ventured out a few times. Have always gotten the positive comments, so far, and that has been great. As warmer weather approaches, I look forward to getting out and about much more often.

All us 60+ year olds need to band together!

I love the one, "Why, shoes and socks, maam!"

My personal fave, which I've used on occasion, is "My hose!".

I am of course referring to my socks.

In Germany this could lead to funny looks, if the person is not familiar with the term.

The german word "Hose" means trousers.

Here's the picture. I'm kind of traditional myself, but for Florida, the flip-flops are appropriate.

I'm not a lothario, and never have been... don't wear a kilt to get attention in the least.

That said, like many others here, I can't elaborate on half of the things I've had to put up with through the years, mostly from strange, drunk girls; consider yourself fortunate that you got off as easy as you did, this time. Next time, you run the risk of someone getting MUCH more "friendly".

You have been warned.

Thanks for the vocab word, i never heard of lothario.

To be honest, I've gotten some attention and know it's expected, people screaming at me from across the room etc. This is just the first time it ever got physical, which was a bit startling.

Yeah, it can be rather startling, for sure.

Especially with single guys, at first, they might be thinking "Hey- This is awesome!" But if you have to put up with enough of it, to enough of a degree, over a long enough period of time, you realize you're being treated like a piece of meat, and that you could have legal action against a bunch of these women, should you wish to.

Aye, a little self respect is all it takes to see said low-class actions for what they are- proof that men are not the only impulsive hornballs in town.

Yeah..you realize you're being treated like a piece of meat...

I can live with that... seriously though one shouldn't have to fend off unwanted lewd behaviors. At a Ren Faire I got upkilted by a pretty young lass. I really didn't protest. Gave my wife and I a good laugh when she came out from under me redder than my torrie.

How long have you been kilting?

After the first decade (especially when you're a young man at the time, I should think), it does get old.

You realize that you're getting all the attention you want anyway, and that the attention of foolish, sleezy women is not what a gentleman finds gratifying.

It can be tough on your wife or gf if they have not encountered this before, I dont know why it happens but it seems a common 'problem'

My wife is used to it since I've been wearing a kilt for a long time but she was still caught out recently by a friends over interest and she gave her the evil eye treatment - seemed to work
