Sometimes, I think we just get to serious here. The kilt is just not for Highland wear or location anymore. The genie is out of the bottle!
Preach on brother Ern! I agree with these sentiments very much.

I would add one other personal comment. I grew up in a house where sitting around the table for dinner was mandatory and debate on issues of the day, politics etc were the norm. So I don't get wounded by much that anyone says in a thread. So in addition to the point of getting to serious here, I don't think anyone should get to worked up about any comments. I know I love the kilt and I really like the kilts I own so I am not going to sell them all and give up wearing kilts because someone made a comment that upset me. As my Dad used to say: "don't let them pull your chain".
