kilts in Scotland

[arrogcow]

BANG ON THE MARK CHEF! You've nailed it. Kilts, real, proper kilts, are something special to a Scot. As for the quasi-kilt... well, it's just so much "look at me" counter-cultural clothing.

I don't see the Nisai Japanese inventing utili-kimonos, or sport-kimonos. Perhaps they have more respect for the special things in their culture than do our own people born upon foreign shores.

Like Chef I'm a kilt snob and proud of it.

I appreciate that you don't like contemporary kilts, but ascribing motives to those of us that wear them (and i wear traditional kilts as well) has no place on this forum.

Adam-- I don't like or dislike quasi-kilts; I merely dismiss them in the same way I dismiss zoot suits, nehru jackets, and platform shoes (except for Frankenstien's monster). Further, I have ascribed no motivation to those who choose to wear them. As far as how people choose to dress, well my attitude is this: When the sun is shining you may carry an umbrella. When it rains, you may do as you please.
