TFCK "full length" kilt?

[McGurk]

I don't see why it's so surprising. I took the most extreme response to mean that it is absolutely not a kilt. I might have different ideas about how to wear the kilt or what it means personally than other people on this forum. Others might say "Mark, your kilt is too long/short; your hose are too high/low" but we're all talking about a kilt. Germany has Männerröcke which are like the same thing as these full length "kilts", but they're labelled "Röcke" (skirts) instead of "kilts".
Far be it from me to discriminate against what people "can" and "can't" wear. But please don't call that a kilt.

Reading that, I think missunderstanding the emphisis of the question is probably what lead to my suprise. When I hear the word 'kilt' the garment I first think of is the knee length one, taloured with pleats and apron. However, I also recognise the great plaid when its refered to as a kilt.
When I saw the question "Would you wear a "Full Length" Kilt?" and the one shown was held as an example. I assumed that for the purpose of answering the question, we where to assume (or at least accept that Erisianmonkey assumed) that the "Full Length" Kilt was a kilt. That is the angle I took the question from. I personaly didnt think the question was asking if we thought it was a kilt or not.

There is a good case for it being refered to as a kilt, in my mind. If we assume the great plaid is what the kilt developed from, then the kilt could be worn in many more ways then what is common. The great plaid was a very versitile piece of clothing (or piece of cloth) that could be worn at any length and in any fasion.

isn't that sort of like a male 'hostess skirt' ? http://www.scottishclansman.com/skirthostess.html
