Skirt Cafe is an on-line community dedicated to exploring, promoting and advocating skirts and kilts as a fashion choice for men, formerly known as men in skirts. We do this in the context of men's fashion freedom --- an expansion of choices beyond those commonly available for men to include kilts, skirts and other garments. We recognize a diversity of styles our members feel comfortable wearing, and do not exclude any potential choices. Continuing dialog on gender is encouraged in the context of fashion freedom for men. See here for more details.
Pants to me is underwear as in underpants. I know that underpants are the knickers that you wear under pants but pants over here are trousers so should they be undertrousers? Gee, do we have to speak in English, or is it American?
I believe in offering every assistance short of actual help but then mainly just want to be left to be myself in all my difference and uniqueness.

Interesting, as most times the press is depicted as progressive/left-wing, contradictory with their earnings.
I've noted that the left thinks of the press as right-wing, while the right thinks of the press as left-wing. Maybe they are actually more moderate or neutral?

UK English, US English, and OZ English are all welcome here, and the more the better!
The thrust behind my multi-partite joke was that in UK English "pants" in slang means "completely inane" (unless I am working from outdated sources -- which is entirely possible). The confusion that's generated from all different meanings is what gives the matter its humour value. (E.g. "Trousers are inane.")

The British press, left-wing? The Times? The ToryTelegraph? The Daily Mail? The Shun? The Express? Hahahahahahaha what planet are you on?
The same planet as you . But I live on the continent, which I believe would be, according to the people in the UK, always in the fog. So my opinion might be blurred by the fog.
The Liberal Democrats are not the third party. They are the fourth, and have been since the previous election. When the Scots vote for parties that are clear about wanting a referendum on independence, then win rather more decisively than the Bounder Boris, and he says no, we no longer live in a democracy. I see trouble ahead, and lots of people with kilts in the streets with banners. I don't know why the more assertive independence crusaders have adopted kilts - the SNP politicians hardly ever take to them.
The Lib-Dems are certainly a minority party and always have been and I take your point. As for devolution, well, I suppose that brethren north of the border will eventually get their second referendum and if they do vote to leave the family then good luck to them. They shouldn't also make the decision to go back into Europe lightly and if they do then they really do deserve what they get. Maybe it would be good for them as an independent country but I would have to be convinced. The border may be a problem again and border checkpoints would be a disappointment. I'm not really a fan of a United States of Europe - trading block, yes, but single entity, no.
