    Some people just don't know

    The father of my girl friends son came by the other evening to pick the boy up, I answer the door, we exchange greeting. He looked at my kilt, turned away, then looked back again so fast I thought his head would roll from his shoulders. After staring for a long moment I told him it's a kilt, he looked up smiled and said thats great its not what I thought it was.

    He had heard the word "Kilt" and knew it to be Irish or Scottish or something like that, but had never seen one.

    Which leads me to believe. At least some of the people that call a kilt a skirt, just don't know better.

    I have been thinking that maybe it would be useful to have a 1 page PDF file to stick up on the outside of my cubical explaining what a kilt is for the people here that just don't know any better and might be afraid to ask.

    Why not print up some business cards(small print of course) that you can hand out to the ignoranus persons who are ill informed about men's clothing.
