Will Women Ever Accept Mantyhose?

No sooner did I finish changing my mind about pantyhose for men -- this is a thing, FYI -- I wondered if my 5 cheers for mantyhose might have missed a key problem.
Even if they leave guys' manliness intact (or boost it, if they then heft a broadsword), will women shun the things? Will girlfriends and wives embrace the brosiery, or will they unite in their prejudice against them?
I need answers, and not just from our resident pop-culture vulture Emily.

Mantyhose? Murses? If California,Oregon, and Washington weren't going down the proverbial hole then the rest of the world wouldn't have to contend with all the left coast refugees and their absurd wussification ideas.
Manhose? Not with boots, hat and Wranglers.
Murses? Try saddlebags. Either on your horse or your Hog.
Throw dirt on me, I'm starting to sound like my father and grandfather before him. "The world's going.....................handbag.

In Scotland, if a man wears a kilt for any non-ceremonial purpose, people would laugh at him. Most kilts are worn in North America.
My wife lives and works in Scotland (Dumfries), and one occasionally sees a kilt about. It's not exactly common, but it's not quite unheard of, either.
Maybe they're trying to impress your wife.

My reaction to mantyhose is similar to a scene from Office Space, where Lawrence responds to Peter asking him whether folks on construction sites ask him whether he has a case of the Mondays. I'd link to the clip, but I fear it would violate the Ricochet CoC.
