    if they don't catch on then they don't catch on. I know I'm comfortable in my kilt, and many others here are as well. If I were to wear the kilt for someone else, it would be the same as wearing pants, because someone else wants me to fit in.

    I figure I'll be me, and everyone else can figure things out for themselves. If I want to educate people about the kilt in doing so, that is fine. Do they need to start wearing the kilt? no.

    besides, after all the social consciousness and political correctness, isn't a kilt, while being far more comfortable than pants and strongly tied to my family and herritage, just another piece of clothing?

    A man who is secure in who he is , will not waste time trying to convince others he is right. He will be right and others will judge him for who he is. not what he says.

    I don't wear my kilts because I want to influence men's fashion. I wear my kilts because I want to. I don't let anyone to influence on how I dress. I dress to please me and not someone else.

    There are major barriers that prevent the kilt from becoming main stream:

    1. The attiude that Kilts are Scottland's National dress and they are for Scots only.

    2. Men are very conservative in what define masculinity

    3. Kilts are for formal events only and they are not for running day to day errands.
