Remember, I wear a kilt to replace the wearing of p^&*ts not as a 'statement". I dress to the socially" accepted standards of my peers, except I wear a KILT.

    "Fish nor Fowl" & doing a "dis service to the kilt ?? Perhaps in some eyes, but not in the eyes of my peers.& that is my BOTTOM LINE.

    Respectively, PUFFER
    Sorry Puffer ,in my opinion your peers are wearing their suits according to convention, you should wear your kilt and jacket according to kilt convention,I really don't see the problem. Apart from being fired I suppose! Honestly, the "fish or fowl"description still applies.The kilt is perfectly acceptable to be worn, correctly, in front of Her Majesty the Queen, Presidents,Generals,dustmen,farmers,tycoons and uncle Tom Cobley and all. To wear the kilt improperly does you and them a dis service. Sorry.
