    Women in Utilikilts

    So yesterday morning I came out of the shower to find my lady wrapped in my tan UK survival. She's looking at herself in the mirror. She says, "I want one of these."

    So we'll see what happens from here....

    First our pants, now our kilts, is nothing truly ours?

    My wife keeps stealing my boxer shorts. It's annoying.

    Oh well. Women do wear men's clothing. I'm one of the Rangers for the Burning Man project.

    It was seeing some of my fellow Rangers in Utilikilts that got me started wearing kilts.

    Many of the women Rangers also wear Utilikilts. They wear them because it's a rugged, masculine garment and they like that look.

    Does women wearing them make it harder to convince people that it's a male garment? Time will tell.

    I can pretty much guarantee you that most women don't care about that issue and how it affects men. It's our problem to deal with -- if it's actually a problem.

    I would careless if women started to wear them, as long as they wear the mini and show me some legs.

    My girlfriend has a black one she wears out with me sometimes, and I just ordered her a cammo one that should be arriving in the mail today.

    At this point I dont really mind if women wear them, especially if they wear them as a mini. It looks far enough different from what I am wearing that it doesnt bother me.

    I cant really say how it might affect a totally new guy, but I know from selling UK's in the booth that sales to men still make up over 90% of the business. Well, let me say sales FOR men. It seems almost every man who comes in to buy a kilt actually has his wife, girlfriend, or mother pay for it. They REALLY want us in kilts (though in the mother's case I am hoping its just because their kids dont have the money yet!)

    I'm seeing a lot here of "as long as they wear the mini"...now is that what we're talking about? Because men wouldn't be wearing the mini - I wouldn't consider them kilts - just skirts.

    As for women wearing them, I might not have a great argument, but something in me doesn't like it. I really wish some things could remains boys own; like boyscouts, boys only sports teams, and kilts. We need our own room.

    Yes, men need their own room.

    Where I live, there is outstandingly bad double standard involving rooms... The men's room and the lady's room.

    A woman can take her little boy into a men's restroom. It's good to aclimatize him into growing up from a boy to a "young man." So, lately, there has been an annoying amount of women in the men's room. However, a man can not take his own daughter into the ladies room... Doing so will get you busted for violating at least a dozen decency laws... And if you are a man and you bring your girl into the men's room... GOD HELP YOU! At the mall not to long ago some woman grabbed a security guard and told him that she saw a little girl being drug kicking and screaming into the men's room... She was sure the the little girl had just been abducted and was going to be horribly raped. A half a dozen police wasting their time later, and one very embarassed father felt bad for trying to wash the sticky ice cream mess off of his girl's face. What's a father to do? And don't get me started on what a woman in the man's room is going to cause... Sexual harassment cases, here we come...

    Women take our clothing, our public toilets, take bloody everything and we walk around on eggshells not knowing what to do. I was very very startled the other day in a bathroom the other day telling me that was horribly rude because I had just farted while I was taking a piss and she did not want her son subjected to that sort of behaviour.

    I was so irked I lost my temper.

    "Lady, if you don't like it, get the **** out of the men's room, and take your son to the lady's room where they **** little white doves out their lilly white asses"

    Needless to say, she was so shocked that she left.

    I am starting to get more and more confused about what I am meant to do and not meant to do in society.

    That was extremely rude, and entirely called for behavior.

    I'm glad it produced the desired result.
