Kilts and costumes

Of course, those of us who are traditionalists will argue that because the kilt has symbolism to us in regards to our family heritage, military service, etc., we do not wish to to be "just like any other type of clothing".

HEY!! Who are you calling a traditionalist, anywho?!?

Now, I'm not saying my opinion is the only correct one -- far from it. But not everyone who wears a kilt has the "cause" of its adoption as another piece of clothing. For some of us, it is a symbolic garment.

Oh c'mon Todd, you mean after all these months, you're not ready to demand that everyone around you be kilted each and every day of the year?

Remember, the whole concept of tolerance is meant to be a one-way street. Everyone is to remain tolerant of you wearing the kilt, whilst you demonstrate absolute intolerance toward those A) who do not wear kilts ever, B) who do not wear kilts every day of their lives, C) who do not wear 16 oz. tanks (or contemporary kilts, depending on your own side of the fence) and/or D) who meet all of the above qualifications.

I respect those who differ from me, and ask the same in return.

Todd, Todd, Todd... You've obviously forgotten the most important step. You never, ever, never ask for respect. You demand it. And be prepared to go off like a shot if it is not granted.

By a show of hands, how many of you have seen this same topic beaten like the proverbial dead horse, ad nauseum?

It's a blinkin' kilt. Wear it. Or not. It's your individual choice. The when, the why and the how are all up to you. If you want to wear a kilt to work, wear it. Or not. If you want to wear a kilt to church, wear it. Or not. It's your decision to make. And there's nothing to be gained by suggesting someone is wearing it at the wrong times, for the wrong reasons and in the wrong manner. (Unless the numpty is wearing it pleats forward, of course.)

How about let's argue the significance of a particular style of shoes next time, just to switch it up a bit. I mean, can you believe the lazy bums that wear loafers? Are they too lame to tie their own shoelaces? Sheesh, what's this world coming to? Anyway?

I require whisky, so if you'll excuse me.

Sir, your rhetoric never ceases to amaze .
