A question of support.

Post by Departed Member »

As the last poll I posted was so succesful I thought I might try another; this time about partners' support for our general skirt/kilt wearing. :evil:

Again, if there is a poll like this already done, then I do apologise.

I have put an allowance of 2 choices, if you'd like to exercise that; this is for the last 2 of the choices mainly, I think.
I have let this run for ever, as I don't think that a time limit is helpful, here, as members may not visit frequently enough to put it up for only a week or so.

If there's a different choice you'd like included, please PM me. :salut:

"Dress up" = ?

I thought that should be an option. The idea that members here might wear other items, such as tights (which have been discussed at length), mary-janes or heels (also been discussed) as well as blouses (which I haven't seen much about)
When I joined I was led to believe that Skirtcafe was mainly about skirts / kilts, but any other item of clothing which could be seen in normal wear could also be discussed. This is what I mean.

If you are unhappy with this option I could amend or remove it.

Carole's support for my choice of attire varies with how she feels. When all is well and she's in good fghting form she is ver supportive, when she feels a little less in control her support wanes, first from skirts and eventually from kilts - if that happens my best option is usually to take the dog for a long (read "all day") walk and hope she's over it by evening. That generally works.

Have fun,


Ian.

I think "dress up" is ambiguous. To me it means trying to look smarter, more elegant, than usual. I did not think of alternative clothing.

Another option could be:
Does your dog support whatever you wear?
I'm sure the response would be 100% positive!

I 'dress up' for parties where appropriate and am supported in this by my Spouse who also does ditto.

Recently my 'Twelfth Night' party attire was certainly 'dressing up', and not just a kilt.

There is another form of 'dressing' which was inferred, but I do not attempt that.

Do you mean at home or out and about? It would affect the answers for quite a few people.

I don't think that what you do behind closed doors or when no-one esle can see you should be included in kilting and skirting.

:hmmm: Difficult, as I'm only allowed 10 choices per poll, but in my next poll (if I do one) then I shall have to consider answers more carefully.
I think that all answers, here, should be taken as "in general", without sounding too ambiguous. :Rulz:

The recent case in point, 'Twelfth night' party....happened to be at our house as it was our party. It could well have been at someone else's house and we would have had to travel there 'dressed' up, as did the others who came to us.

Would that qualify as 'out and about'?. Certainly the gear I had on for that party wouldn't have cut it in e.g. the local shopping mall. As Milfmog put it: I would have been looked on as an elderly excentric. All true!!

Just for the record - I am single and don't need supportin' !
However if someone needs supportin' I will gladly defend your position.

'Unsupported-Kilting"

"YES SKIRTING MATTERS"!
"Kilt-On" -or- as the case may be "Skirt-On" !
WHY ?
Isn't wearing a kilt enough?
Well a skirt will do in a pinch!
Make mine short and don't you dare think of pinching there !
