Hose/Flashes with tall boots?

[tripleblessed]

Something that might be relevant here. As an actor, I found that costume affected presentation; that is, if I was struggling to get the character, sometimes changing the shoes or clothing pushed me to move in a different way, and that allowed a more appropriate revealing of the character. When I found myself sliding down the road with 600lbs. of motorcycle attempting to push my ankle through the pavement, I was inordinately grateful for tall boots and the extra few seconds they bought me to get out from under to on top of it before I started losing bone.

My point is that clothing choices have many motivations, and THCD is only one of a whole spectrum of reasons. Sometimes you just want tall boots. Sometimes you just want a kilt. Sometimes you just feel like wearing your Stetson with the feathered hatband. It might all happen on the same day. I don't feel motivated to be responsible for any other person's choices, and I won't apologize for my own. I certainly don't choose with an eye to offending
anyone, any more than does the Duke of Argyll. I DO appreciate knowing
what everyone thinks, to help inform choices.

As English Bloke points out, either kilts are modern clothing, or they are
costume wear only for ceremony and only for Scots.
