    ai wasnae diridin' folk fyr wearin a 'different fashion'... ai wuz (an will continue tae) pointin oot some "Do's an 'Don'ts" fur those o us whit intend tae wear kilts proodly and no look like numpties...

    Those men who wear cowboy boots and hats with
    their kilts get more respect from me, because they
    are brave enough to violate the rules of "kilt fashion"
    as much as they are to violate any other fashion rules.
    weel guid fur ya wee lad.... respect people sans clue a' ya want... but dinnae confeese 'bravery' wi' glaikitness... theys nay the same....

    So anyway, its funny that people who are supposed
    to be showing their security by wearing a kilt, are
    acturally showing their insecurity by poking fun at
    how some else wears a kilt differently.

The kilt is best left for those times that I want to feel like something special is going on.

    You're not alone in that feeling, Chris. Good on ya!

    I think Toys-R-Us carries those, although you have to ask the employees. They aren't put on the floor, as most of the little girls would cry at the sight of a dozen or so barbie dolls impaled on a steel cane.

    would be damn funny looking, though!

    about wearing a kilt, then deride others for
    wearing a kilt in a fashion different than their
    own.

    Comments about how silly looking is a kilt too
    short or long, sound so much like how silly
    a man looks in a "skirt." Pretty much a case
    of the pot calling the kettle black.

    Those men who wear cowboy boots and hats with

    are brave enough to violate the rules of "kilt fashion"
    as much as they are to violate any other fashion rules.
    Being the non-conformist I am, I don't expect everyone
    (or anyone for that matter) to approve of how I look.
    If I don't like how someone else looks, it is just a
    matter of being something I won't do myself. I still
    respect their choice and courage to do it.

    So anyway, its funny that people who are supposed
    to be showing their security by wearing a kilt, are
    acturally showing their insecurity by poking fun at
    how some else wears a kilt differently.
    I just happened to re-read this post and it brought back a memory of an episode of C.O.P.S. wherein some vagrant, bum, if you will, was wearing a girls skirt that he had found somewhere and when the cop asked him what he was wearing the vagrant replied that it was a kilt. Now, no way does a girls skirt come anywhere close to even resembling a mans kilt no matter what tartan it may be cut from but now to add to that comical memory I can add your post and it will remind me that no matter what kind of stupidity exists I should just keep my mouth shut and not show my insecurity.

    Chris.

    I must have been out sick that day. My wearing kilts has nothing to do with showing my security, but everything to do with pride in heritage.

    Others opinions differ.
