Re: Skirtcraft - New Photos and Survey

I would be more likely to buy "B". It just looks better than " A".

Re: Anyone wear a formal, floor length skirt?

Kevin, As for Dress code I'd recommend you wear formal shiny black shoes with your Tux & not go barefoot :idea: Oh no. I have to behave like a good Scot and draw the line somewhere. Btw...All the Islay Malts taste like medicine. Try something more conventional, like Dalwinney, Oban or Tallisker...

Re: Noobie here!

Hi Toll and :welcome: IF I may throw my $.02 worth in here, I will suggest getting one of the economy kilts, made by several manufactures. The "Blackwatch" tartan is not associated to any clan . This 'starter kilt' will be an 'ice-braker' with friends and, especially , family. After seein...

Re: Anyone wear a formal, floor length skirt?

It's normal for voices, especially male voices to get deeper with age. Most basso profundos are at least 40 years of age. I did not reach the ability to sing at the extreme deep range until I was in my 50's. John I've been a baritone since my late teens, and have been blessed with a good range all ...

Re: Anyone wear a formal, floor length skirt?

Kevin, Kevin, I really appreciate your going into details with your voice pitch. My choice of poison has been the American Communion (a cigar and bourbon) and then I may be able to reach G1. But, oh, do I pay the price as you say. After my voice change around 13 my range in my early teens was E2 up...

Re: Anyone wear a formal, floor length skirt?

Bf-K, When you say they re-orchestrated the Panis Angelicus for you, was that a change in key signature?....and are these solos for a Church service or a concert? Nuff questions. Tom Tom, Basically it was a key change to D, but our director (an extremely talented young man of 26) has re-orchestrate...

Re: Anyone wear a formal, floor length skirt?

If you are an instrumentalist you are free to wear clothes typically worn by women performers. However, if you are in a choir you are expected to wear the clothes that is imposed on the section. I sing bass so I would be locked into the typical tux outfit - ugh! However, I would still be free to ha...

Re: Noobie here!

@Barefoot Kevin Seriously? Positive comments? Wow that just makes me happy to hear that. I have no idea how my area would react. I've read here that it's usually the significant others that react negatively to their men wearing skirts more so then the public. That's very interesting. Most of the po...

Anyone wear a formal, floor length skirt?

My mother just recently passed away, and among her things is a beautiful floor length (42 inch from waist to hem) formal black skirt that fits me perfectly and just barely covers my toes (I can wear it barefoot without it dragging the ground). The folks at church are used to seeing me in a skirt or ...

Re: Noobie here!

I really don't want to wait until it's socially acceptable for men to wear skirts in western countries. ( I live in Pennsylvania, U.S.) Who knows how long that could be. I'm not getting any younger. I have a youthful body and I wanna start wearing skirts before I'm old, ya know? While I'm in the be...

Re: Necklace as... neck tie?

My natural Hematite items are attracted to a magnet, but they're not magnetic themselves (won't stick to a piece of steel). My artificial hematite (I think the trade name is Hemalite) doesn't seem to attract magnets. A friend, who makes various pieces of bling for me, claims hematite is good for th...

Re: Necklace as... neck tie?

The Wikipedia article indicates that the mineral is actually iron ore, and , if I understand correctly, it may be magnetic. Right, Hemitite does have magnetic properties. I have to be careful not to swallow anything metallic. Wearing s full-length wool plaid wrap skirt with a hematite anklet and go...

Re: Driving and Camping

Well, I just got back from the backpacking trip from hell. We cut it a day short after getting caught in a three-inch deluge which lasted all afternoon yesterday. Everything soaked, even under ponchos.The National Forest trails, already in bad condition, turned into running streams. There wasn't a ...

Re: Ties and skirts/kilts

My wife has seemed to come around as well. Lately she has been very complementary, and has even offered me a couple of skirts that are now too big for her. The real clincher happened the other night when were sitting on the couch and she groped me under my skirt.
