A few months ago, I found this movie online somewhere, but I can't recall what it was called!! :-( I was looking for a gender bender type of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde and found this movie where this teen boy suddenly becomes a girl!! After some figuring himself out, he gets to the point where he can change back & forth at will. early on, he meets a girl that he likes a lot and asks her out, but she won't go out with him unless her older brother says it's okay, so he comes out and gives the kid a hard time in a friendly way. Hockey is in the picture somewhere, too. Eventually, the boy finds out that the girls older brother is actually the girl as a guy and SHE can change at will, too!! I SURE wish I could do that!! In fact, I think EVERYBODY should get the chance to be the other sex, even for just a little while, to see what it's like so we can understand each other better and, if you decide to stay in one body or the other, you can!!

It's sort of like that. I've just seen Dr. Jekyll And Sister Hyde ( comedy from about 10 years ago) and a clip from a sci-fi "horror" version from the early `70's that I'd like to see, I think it was made by Dan Curtis (Dark Shadows).

Yeah, but it's not the same thing, although, even wearing a kilt gets you a few crude remarks!! Besides, those things are a bit on the heavy side, not very attractive and cost a few HUNDRED dollars.

If you can imagine Mitch Miller in a kilt, you know what he looks like.
Traditional Kilts however do run in the "Hundreds" or more mostly due to the sheer amount of heavy wool fabric used in making them.
(I did some work for a traditional kiltmaker once)
Anyway, even $120.00 for a kilt is WAY too much!! I can get utility pants for about $20.00, why would a skirt, with much less material, cost 5 times as much? Besides, I don't do that kind of work, so, for the work I do, the loops and hoops in one those things would make playing drums a LOT harder!! I prefer a nice, short scooter/skater skirt! The ONLY "confining" part is the waist band!
