my darling Bothwell wears a kilt sometimes, i consider it so manly and becoming. i will post pic here. but if he wore a dress and slingbacks i'd be concerned! :eek: LOL....i almost never put on girly clothes. but i did while he was here recently. it felt nice. remember that scene in "always" where the tomboy puts on a lovely dress? that's how i felt. i've lived my life in a man's uniform.

I wear pants about 90% of the time. I only wear dresses or skirts to church, never to school. Pants are more practical for work.

I wear trousers most of the time as they are practical for work and chasing my little terminator around, that said when I feel a bit to frumpy or i'm going out its a skirt and heels every time.

I've tried to wear skirts when I'm dressing up, but nearly always end up putting my best trousers on...haven't got a problem with my legs, just don't feel comfy. In the summer i wear cropped trousers or cropped jeans...great when you're a bit old for shorts.

I do like a guy in a kilt..you're sooo lucky LC. has Bothwell got a scottish accent to go with it ?

For years I had to wear a skirt or suit for work so now I live in shorts for 8 months and trousers for the other 4 months. I did wear a dress just a few weeks ago to go out for dinner.....I was so uncomfortable the dress has been put back in the wardrobe and can stay there.

Being a stay-at-home mommy, it's shorts or cropped pants in the summer and jeans or sweats in the winter....I love to get dressed up, so for church it is always a dress/skirt, suit with heels and pearls, unless there is snow or ice on the ground and then we all show up in jeans and boots!

Long skirts, short skirts, trousers or jeans whatever I grab first after a quick look at the weather outside!

I love winter and long skirts with boots or jeans with cowboy boots, short skirts with heeled boots.



:thinking: Actually I'm happiest in my boots, doesn't matter what they are accompanied with!:wah:

I LOVE skirts. I haven't worn shorts all summer just because skirts are so comfy. Long hippie skirts over jeans or long johns in the winter, short skirts with flip flops in the heat of the summer, and medium skirts with heels or boots in other weather. I like to flaunt my pallid legs, which are the color of a deceased person's stomach. Quite appealing.

I'm such a hard size to fit for pants that I find skirts so much more comfortable. They just don't make jeans for short girls who have no hips but who possess the "ghetto booty" style of rear end. Let's not even get started on how hard it is to SHOP for pants. With a skirt it's usually S, M or L.

I'm the old fashioned type. I loved the Mini skirt or 'Hot Pants' of 1960s/70s. But even the 1950s,just below the knee worked wonders.

Nah, women in pants,trousers or even jeans is no turn on. BRING BACK THE SKIRT:guitarist :guitarist

I used to run gas stations, so I wore jeans to work and kept the required khaki pants in my office.

DH and I lived together for 9 years before we got married. Nice civil ceremony with my mom, a friend and two of my kids in attendance. It was the first time he ever saw me in a dress with heels!

OK GMC I am on it.

My Mother is Scottish, My father English, I was born in England, ergo by blood I am half Scot Half English, By Birth I am English but they key is that you can be all of these and British.

Of course the blood bit is not strictly true my natural father was a damn yank!!!! and my natural mother was English. So lets just recap.

By natural parents half American, half English

By Birth English

By Adoption Half Scot half English

Still British!!!

I going for a lie down in a darkened room now:D

Flaunt away babydoll !



I love to see women in skirts, but jeans with boots or a very smart pantsuit is a great look. On a footnote semi unrelated, well totally unrelated I love a woman in a baseball cap with a ponytail hanging down.....yummy !

It was the "his mother is scots but he is british and speaks english" that amused. Shades of parliamo glasgow.
