What do you do when someone tries to lift your kilt to do a "kilt check"? Let's face it, they are usually drunk.
How do you set the boundary and make sure they know it's not okay to grab under the kilt?

Sexual assault. period. When, in any other context, is it okay for anyone to lift up another persons clothes to expose them?

@Yeiyn343 4 года назад

It's the same old double standard: "Don't harm women. But, men are stupid and should just take it, or else they are wimps." Hopefully, these stigmas will end. :-/

ALWAYS alcohol-related! I once had a girl ask me what did I wear under my kilt? So I said boots. She laughed, we dated. Another time, same bar, a drunken girl, and by drunk I mean POLLUTED, actually tried to raise my kilt, so I stopped her by grabbing her hand and saying no, she tried to make light of it at which point I said this "Ok, I know you've had a few drinks and you're in a playful mood and this all seems really fun, BUT please consider this, how would YOU feel if a drunken man tried to do the same thing to you and after you stopped him, brushed it off saying "don't be so stuck-up?" Seriously, how would you feel? Now ask yourself what did you just do and what does that make you? She came up to me a few weeks later and apologized. Sometimes you just gotta turn that double standard shit on its head.

Amen Brother! They (Women) are far too used to playing the double standard on us and they do it so very willingly, without a second thought at all! Without any concern at all about how we would feel about it! No, they only want what they want! It seems pretty selfish and single minded doesn't it? It's sad how some of them actually think they are entitled and have the right to act this way! It is a symphony of poetic justice when we can turn that around and give them a taste of it. Then they have the out right nerve to be offended when we say no! I wonder how much it would piss them off if we hauled them into court and sued them for public sexual harassment and they had to do some jail time as a result. There is a time and place to air a man's Nessie; A public place like a store or a bar is not among them. The thing is, a lot of guys would be game if not for the lack of discretion and judgement on her part. Besides how would she like it if he was drunk and did that to her? Now I'm sure many Women will howl over this, well you all have been screaming for equal treatment (Rights) for years now! Of course I do understand the female idea of "equal" as the one that gives them the advantage. (Not so equal!) Well, here it is! like it or not this is it! Since no one will listen to "Thumper's Rule," (Remember that one?) here's a new one, like it or not; "If you don't like the way the boot feels when you are kicked with it, then don't put it on and kick anyone else!" P.S. I'm not sexist, or racist, I just call it like I see it! I don't care if you like it or not! But I am fair about it. If it offends you then GOOD! That just means there's something not right about the way you are thinking! Best to reassess your values and thinking, or get some professional help!

I've gotten more than just a few "Whatt's under?" and lifters over the last 10 years of wearing kilts daily. SO here's a list of my usual answers: Nothing is worn, everything is still in perfect working order. All the nasty stories you can only read about on the internet. Good girls don’t ask and fun girls already know. Sean Connery's answer -- On a good day nothing but lipstick. The loch ness monster. Why, Did something fall off? If you don’t know by now, it's definitely time to have the birds&bees conversation with your mommy! A lady doesn’t ask and a gentleman doesn’t tell! If you were man enough to wear a kilt, what would you wear under it? Can you keep a secret? Yeah, so can I. Why would you ask anyone about their underwear? Got warm hands? Answers are free, demonstrations are gonna cost you. Depends… not the adult diapers, but on the situation. What’s under your pants/dress/skirt? A blue ribbon.

This would never happen in Scotland though. unlike here, People over there know how to act right and mind their own business. They will strike up conversation if they hear you are American. They like to learn about us too. But they never ask stupid or invasive questions like many do here. If they ask a personal question they will ask permission first and then only after they have known you for more than a day.

@79roller 4 года назад

If asked, I'll usually answer one of two ways, "I'm naked under all my clothes", or, "How cold are your hands?". On one occasion, as I was waiting for the valet to bring my car around, a couple got out of their car and the husband asked, "What do you have on under there?". I replied, "It's funny you should ask, because I'm usually asked that by women, and a few gay men". He turned beet red and his wife roared with laughter! As for the lifting, I once had an unknown woman come up behind me and lift my kilt up over my head. Not much I could do but curse her and tell her that if I should ever see her in a dress, I'll do the same to her; and probably get arrested.

Although she was behind me I knew exactly what was happening, I made no reaction at all, just stood nonchalant with my pint chatting to my palls who were agog at what was happening. Well the back of the kilt began to rise and with no reaction from me she was committed to continue. Slowly up went the kilt until there was a litte shriek and the kilt was dropped. Her mates fell about in gales of laughter. I turned and gave her a grin and a wink.

I remember talking to a man at a dance festival who was selling various tartan-related merchandise and of course wearing a kilt. He got "the question" on occasion. His response was along the lines of "you are welcome to look and find out for yourself but you have to do it right here." He was in a busy hallway so lots of people would have seen what was happening. He said nobody had ever taken him up on the offer. This felt to me like a good way to diffuse the situation without being rude to a potential customer, but at the same time to take back the power in the interaction and subtly tell the person that it was not an appropriate question. That said, this only worked because it was a setting without alcohol and where the fact that it was a community dance festival meant that there was a good bit of pressure to not act like an idiot in front of people might know you. Also, since it was a dance festival it was maybe less likely that there would be people there who really didn't understand personal space (such people usually get weeded out pretty quickly in the dance world, at least in my experience). It also took a certain amount of nerve on his part since someone might actually have taken him up on the offer but I also would not be surprised if he had shorts on underneath, just in case.

A group of “good old boys”, drinking beer, hanging around a pick up truck whistled at me wearing my kilt. I chose to not ignore it and approached the group. After determining who had whistled at me, I told him “I’ll get more women wearing a kilt than you ever will wearing jeans”. He turned red and returned to his buddies.

Being of scots-irish descendant, I have no issue wearing a kilt, and my family clan tartan...but in reasonable situations...such as Scottish or Celtic or ren faires, or for "dress up days". At work one year, the manager said we employees could dress up for Halloween. So I went dressed fully in my Kilt. One female coworker was just dying to know what was under my kilt. When asked, I told her "I take the 5th on the grounds it may incriminate me". For a while I took her jeers, but at one point she just...went too far. I was sitting at the back desk and she literally got down on her hands and knees and tried to look up my kilt as I sat there. I firmly clamped my thighs together, and with sporran on, I knew she'd not be able to see...one way or another...IF I was wearing anything or not (lol, and I'm NOT saying!!). As she got up, she said to the other ladies "he's gotta be wearing underwear! I can't see anything!" I just said "how rude. Would YOU like me looking up your skirt to see if you were wearing underwear??!!" She turned beet red and stomped off. I mean, really! To a guy who wanted to know what was under my kilt and was trying to look, I said "well IF you look under there, and 'something comes UP, you're going to have to take care of it'...he said "gross". As he was walking away, I said "so was you trying to look up my kilt!!". Mind you, these were SOBER people...so they could not pass it off as 'being drunk'. Wear your kilt with pride!

I love how their so mature about this, if someone lifts someone's kilt in a pub here in scotland and it is not well received or wanted, their getting pushed away (woman) or punched on the mouth (man) I worked in bars here in Scotland for 8 years, trust me haha

I've never ran into a kilt lifter, but I have gotten "the question" several times.

@JCTheSniper15 3 года назад

I have definitely been wearing a kilt and had someone check. I was in my early 20's at the time and I was honestly so shocked that I didn't really respond. It was one of my subordinates at my workplace at the time. I'd definitely have a rougher response now.

True. I only get “asked” very occasionally up here but it’s incessant south of the border and ALL the “lifters” are when I’ve been there.

When I was first going through college, I wore my kilt for St. Andrew’s Day. A buddy of mine was actually angry that he could see the bottom of my athletic britches. It didn’t matter how many times I explained that one of the stairs is horizontal only and that I would’ve been arrested if anyone looked up and saw my blue ribbon bessie, in his mind there is exactly one way to wear a kilt and that is IT. That same day, someone else asked me if I was supposed to have a knife in the hose. I told him the name and function of the Sgián dubh, and how even showing a sheathed knife is a felony on a school campus.

Our pipe sergeant, who was also a member of The London Scottish Regiment UK, was playing the pipes one day when a man decided to lay down on his back looking up his kilt. He lifted his foot & stood on the guys throat until he finished playing, then moved his foot away, the man never said anything, but, ran away with a face as red as a beetroot. Also, when I am asked,' do you wear anything under your kilt', my response is thus,'no, but it is ALL in good working order'.

Under many current US laws, lifting your kilt could be charged as sexual assault, simple assault or "harassment".

I've always argued how would they feel if someone lifted their daughters skirt. To me it's the same thing .. If someone asks what's under kilt I just say "only what God gave me" LOL .. and then sometimes I just warn a a person who just wont stop, I can't be held responsible for any psychological damage done by lifting the kilt ..

@PyroDocs 4 года назад

The best is when my wife hears the question. She is quick to respond, "Lipstick" There are a probably two dozen joke responses to the question. "Nothing is worn, everything is fine working order", "The same as most people, boots socks", "What is worn under a Scotsman's kilt is between him and his lover" etc. (edit: see 'Teds Canoe's list further down for a starter) If I catch them attempting a kilt check before the kilt is lifted, and I have time and inclination... I'll teach them how to do a proper kilt check, which starts with consent and maintains consent throughout and doesn't involve flashing anybody. I like people and most "kilt checkers" are more drunk than ill intended or bad people. So I don't mind doing a little education. If they are intentionally rude or aggressively drunk, I'll definitely get the bar/event staff to deal with them.

@aaronkimzey7133 4 года назад

My PM told me about two weeks ago, that he once replied with "Well, everything is in working order under there, are you trying to find out how it works"? That might have been the greatest story my PM ever told me! Not sure if it was word for word, but it is a funny story nonetheless.

@j.s.1816 4 года назад

Boundaries apply here for sure, regardless of gender. I know how uncomfortable it was in elementary school with boys frequently lifting my skirt or peeking underneath when I climbed on playground equipment . I insisted to my mom that I would only wear pants after I realized it wasn't stopping.

@enjoyinglife39 4 года назад

I experienced this in both ways being asked first to see and also just a random person lift my kilt from behind. In bars I understand the playfulness of individuals drinking having a good time and those have been more respectful easy to dealt with it is those random on the street people. At an outdoor festival some guy asked if he could see under my kilt and my reply was a polite No than he processed to ask if he could put his cell phone under and take a picture. In my mind it was like what the hell kind of thing to ask a stranger. More than once on the public streets in Philadelphia during street fairs I have had women lift my kilt from behind in very public settings with crowds of people around. They believed it was cute and for some reason because I was wearing a kilt it was okay to expose me. It was a violation of my person space and I did not find it cute at all. One actually put her hands on my ass. What I find funny if you were to turn around and do that to them and they would freak out. It is extremely disrespectful touching someone in that manner especially a person you do not know. Does not matter how a person is dressed you do not touch.

@chuckhainsworth4801 4 года назад

My experience in the Army was a little different. It was only acceptable before parade or in the mess, and limited to proving for drinks (anyone wearing would buy a round). With civvies, my favourite answer was "Boots, spats, and skean dhu." It helps is you add a bit of sinister at "skean dhu." Formal guard posts, such as quarter guard, royal, and vice-royal guard, there are guards for the guards. There is always some idiot who grabs your kilt, and it is not polite to come up to the engarde.

Back when Hong Kong was being turned over to the Chinese, there was a change of command ceremony with kilts. A puff of wind came along and showed the soldier in all his glory. So proof of what is worn under the kilt, at least in the British Army. Also, legend has it that there was a mirror at the door of the barracks so the Sergeant could check that the soldier met uniform regulations.

Military regulations is where the public gets confused. There is no such reg for joe q public. Why didnt traditionally Scots not wear underwear? Because it wasnt practical. Today is a different story and only military has that regulation.

I wear a Utilikilt to work, and I've had coworkers ask about what I'm wearing, if its in the vain of am I following dress code I tell them I'm following dress code otherwise I tell them that technically sexual harassment and if they don't want a sit down with HR to stop asking. When its out of work I remind them of the flipped scrip. I'll ask them "Hey, is that appropriate if you asked a woman?" Had a guy respond with "well that's different" "Is it tho?" "well yeah we're both guys" "But is it still appropriate?"

@oldsagerat 3 года назад

I quit wearing my kilt because of local very constant wind. I had a woman, in a pub well in the arms of Bacchus, ask me what I was wearing under there. I told her a lass wouldn't care, a lady would ask, and a woman would find out for herself. It is my experience that if you've got the attitude to wear a kilt, you should have a sense of humor. I don't like dealing with drunk boyfriends or filling out police reports, so I've found it helpful to disarm the situation with humor. "Buy me a pint and I'll let you look." "I'll let you look if you show me your tits." I'm not comfortable going "regimental" anyway, so their look is cheap.

I’ve never had anyone actually lift my kilt but been asked numerous times “if it’s true what you don’t we’re under your kilt?” My reply is always while laughing, a Scot never reveals his secrets and that usually ends it there. I just think especially in the US it’s just innocent curiosity and nothing else and maybe a way to be able to ask a few questions about my clan tartan and crests worn with the kilt

@karenturner-wensel9536 3 года назад

Thank you for addressing the lookee loo's. Women and girls also deal with that either when wearing a short skirt or a low neckline. Even my 8 yr old grandaughter is dodging touchers all the time bacause she has very long, curly, red blonde hair and people want to pull on the curls. She feels that her space has been disrespected and is uncomfortable with it.

I had a woman ask me what I had on under my kilt - She was a little miffed when I told her (rather loudly) that I'll show her what's under my kilt if she shows me what's under her skirt. I DID have success with that line once, though - although she was MUCH more discrete about it than the other woman. When I was in the RCAF, I went to a Mess Dinner in my kilt (with my wife), and one guy tried to take a look. He got caught (by my wife), who rather loudly berated him and the Commanding Officer had him removed.

I have been Piping St Patrick’s day for years I get at least 2 a night, usually not lifting, its a hand that just grabs a hold, which makes piping difficult, other than that it dosent happen too often. When "What you wearing under there" is asked, which happens a ton I usually respond with "your wife's lipstick" "Two nights garden a clock tower" when I was younger and single and she was pretty some times I would say Jokingly "give me your hand I'll show ya". when I do catch a lady trying to reach under I usually say you have to take me home first. Most of the time I just say what would you do if some random guy reached under you dress or skirt and coped a fill?

@trevormoorctaft3906 2 месяца назад

I was at pub in Kitchener Ontario. A woman asked me what I had on under my kilt. I told her to mind herself. Seconds past and she was lifting my pleats. Told her to piss off. Another few seconds go by and she was on her back, like working on a car, in between my legs and looking up. I did not know she was there and took a step back, tripped and landed right on top of her ass first. Busted her collar bone, busted a couple of her ribs and messed her face up. Moments latter I was in cuffs until a couple of of stand up brothers came to my defense and told the cops what had happened. All the while she was screaming about it being a joke. Haha, joke was on her. She got arrested.

Being a US Army Veteran, I can still wear my Mess Dress uniform at organized events; the Mess Dress consists of a waist length jacket, not a full length coat, which is perfect for wearing a Kilt and my Kilt is made using the US Army Tartan. Anyway, I was at a Ball one evening and a US Marine in his Full Dress uniform came up to me and asked if I was wearing the Kilt "Regulation" to which I replied that if I were, it would have to be damned near ankle length! 😁

Men in kilts were given the same protection in the Act.

It's happened to me on many occasions. If they ask me, or demand to know what's under my kilt, I'll usually direct them to the nearest female in a skirt or dress and tell them to go ask her the same question and see how that works out for them. Premise being that most people wouldn't ask a woman what they're wearing under their skirt/dress, so why would would it be ok to ask me the same question?
