Not at all! Kilts are menswear. Men have had the freedom to choose to wear kilts for a very long time. It would seem, however, that it is an option that, for whatever reasons, a majority of men in this timeline choose to decline.
...My only confusion, if that's what you want to call it is how to keep warm in the winter, seeing as I wear long johns all through winter and sometimes a bit into spring due to my legs getting too cold and basically freezing up (severe pain)...
My answer to that is... If we're going to wear kilts, let's do it with some intelligence. If it's too cold to wear a kilt properly, then maybe it's time to think about pulling on a pair of trousers instead. As men we do have that option available to us as well.
... I suppose the aswer is try it and see I'm sure though I'll work something out being a resourceful chap.
cheers for the replies.
Don't get me wrong... I have absolutely no problem with men wearing tights. They can provide an insulating layer in cold weather and promote circulation, etc. But for men, fashion legwear worn with a kilt is no less inappropriate than wearing tennis shoes with a tuxedo, or a baseball cap in church. It's a matter of respect.
