gentlemen and ladies, being new to the kilt wearing world I find it interesting at how close minded the people I meet can be. When I read the mission of this forum I understood it to be about promoting the wearing of the kilt not the blocking of one group of people from wearing them. Ladies if the kilt fits and makes you happy wear one, men if the kilt fits and makes you happy wear it, and everyone let us work together to promote this proud garmet as a viable choice for fashion for everyone and give the manufacturers of lesser garmets a reason to recognize that what we all want is to have the shackles of the plastic doll like model mold of society thrown out and the freedom to choose what to wear on our own.
