Dealing with Ignorance

[csbdr]

Not to hijack the thread, I was wondering for people who wear both traditional and modern kilts, have you noticed a different reaction to each one.

The traditional plaid is recognizable to most, but I can see the modern kilts being incorrectly labelled "skirts" more often..

Thoughts?

I wear both, and have never had anyone over the age of 7 yo mistake my contemp. kilts for a skirt. I always get "Nice kilt!" with my UK's. I think the compliments come from a younger demographic when I'm in a UK vs a trad.

Ditto. Its been said before, the type of idiot that hassles kilt wearers doesn't discriminate between modern and trad.
