Okay I have to put my two cents in here. And this will be a two issue post.

ISSUE 1: While I an in 100% agreement that my kilt is not a costume, I was bombarded by questions from my co-workers asking why I didn't wear it. Instead of trying to explain to so many people that which is so obvous to us, I simply said I was to rushed that morning to dress up (which was the truth, they just don't know that I would have dressed as a pirate or a knight).

ISSUE 2:I think the reason I got asked this so much is because someone here at work was wearing a kilt for Halloween. While I should have been put off by this I wasn't, here is why. His department was doing a Medievil theme and they were all dressed in some type of period clothing, kind of like a Ren Fair. Sure, he could have used a few pointers but really he did nothing that disrespected the kilt. In fact he actually commented several times on how comfortable he found it and that he may wear it more often to work.

So big deal if Halloween may have been what prompted the kilt. Someone has just had there eyes opened. I can live with that.
