You may have been fooled into believing there was one specific day for National Kilt Day, but please be assured, the constantly changing date at www.kiltday.com was not intended to embarrass you. It was set up to give "new guys" a weapon in their arsenal when they encounter people that can’t wrap their minds around the idea that kilts are both comfortable and acceptable for everyday wear by men.
It was not intended to “fool” you.. it was intended to “fool” your boss.. when you wear your kilt to work and he says, “Hey, what’s with the skirt?” You can do like others and first explain that it is a men’s kilt, then explain that it is Kilt Day. Send anyone that asks to KiltDay.com and they’ll believe you!
Then, maybe after they see it is not disruptive, that you can perform your job in a kilt and that you do in fact work in a professional environment where proper attire, such as a kilt, can be worn without any of the problems they may anticipate otherwise. I think employers that deny men the freedom to wear a kilt at work out of fear that it would be disruptive are clearly admitting the work environment is not professional enough and the employees are not mature or intelligent enough to deal with something that is even slightly different.
What they really need to understand is that it is NOT crossdressing, any more than women in pants are crossdressing. If women can do your job in a skirt, there is no reason you should not be allowed to do your job in a proper kilt.
If you have the courage, everyday is Kilt Day.
