Wearing a Tie May Cause Blindness!
An anonymous reader noted that there finally is some science to justify not wearing a tie! Doctors have found that wearing a tie too tight causes pressure on the jugular vein, which leads to a build-up of pressure in the eyeballs. Such pressure rises have been linked to glaucoma, which causes blindness. Now, if only some kind researchers could get us all out of wearing pants at the office, we'd be set!
That's the amazing thing - the majority of guys don't really wear shirts that fit correctly. Either they just don't have the time/care to make sure, or vanity (this used to fit) gets in the way...
Stop by my site where I write about ERP systems & more
You are right. But can anyone answer this. Whenever I go to get a suit, the salesman always picks a shirt that seems to be way to tight in the neck. I have to basically tell him I don't care what size he thinks I need and get a larger neck size. Is having a tight fit around the neck considered in fashion?

If it's a rental, yes. You don't know where it's been.
If it's your's, it's optional. Personally, I find the wool of the tartan can chafe, so I usually do. Particularly when attending weddings, as there can be alot of dancing involved.
(As a side issue, always remember to move your sporran before dancing. A bouncing sporran can cause undue wincing.)
Oh, and kilts are babe magnets.
