    Census poll: What is your cultural / historical connection to the kilt?

    Over time, there have been numerous threads that have discussed peoples' connection to kilt-wearing (or lack thereof), including one recent one that really got me curious.

    What ARE the demographics of kilt-wearers on XMTS? It's possible that this has come up before, but if so, this may provide a more up-to-date cross-section, representative of the active members we have posting these days. The purpose is mainly interest and curiosity. I have no point to prove or anything like that. I'm just genuinely curious to know a bit more about the cultural breakdown of kilt-wearers on the forum.

    Please vote in the poll. It's pretty self-explanatory. If you wish to share any additional details in the comments, I encourage you to do so. Just bear in mind that this is not to become a discussion about who should or shouldn't wear a kilt.
