joining the clan

[bigdad1]

There certainly is a lot of blather posted will supposing to answer your question and solve your problem. It is a basic question and an even more basic problem. In fact not even a problem at all.
This is the modern day United States of America not olden days Scotland. You can wear what you want and you don't have to explain yourself to anyone. As long as you don't tell people you are from a specific clan when you aren't you can wear any damn tartan you damn well please. If you like the looks then wear it. If you want to find a friendly clan to join and you like their tartan then go for it but most important is "to thine own self be true" and wear what the hell you want to and the devil with others opinions.

Actually, given the original post, I personally feel that most of the replies were germane to the topic. The original question did ask about a "chiefless clan", and there were some very interesting comments made from both sides of the isle about this particular subject.

Whilst there are no "rules" concerning the wearing of tartan -- a statement that we hear almost ad nauseum around here at times -- the simple fact of the matter is that some people want a connection to the tartan they choose to wear. I know I certainly do, but let me just say here and now that this "rule" applies to myself only and I hold no one else to that standard. All I ask is for the respect I give to others to be returned.
