Men in skirts

[Phil]

Thanks for the link Phil but I really have to question whether this is an appropriate topic for xmarks. I would quote Rule #9 – This forum is not the place for the discussion of cross-dressing. While neither you nor the article mentions cross-dressing, neither is the kilt mentioned and I would be concerned that any discussion would go rapidly downhill into the subject of cross-dressing. How do you see this as related to kilts, which as far as I am aware have already been permissible wear for graduation ceremonies for many years?

I was more thinking of a "stushie" a few years back when Cambridge students were forbidden to attend graduation kilted, Alex - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/4386595.stm . I am sorry but didn't actually connect this latest article with cross-dressing per se although reading again I can see that interpretation. On my reading I (perhaps naively) simply read into it the equality for men and women being able to wear clothes of their choosing and the comments following the article seemed overwhelmingly kilt-related.
