But is because they are truly offended or because they think that it is expected of them to be offended? I mean, of what consequence to them is the wearing of a UK? Are they just trying to say, "this is a real kilt, yours is a phoney kilt"? or what? They can't just say, "different strokes for different folks" and be done with it?

So you got people who only want to wear a kilt when they're competing and seem to regard it as a necessary evil and they still want to posture as the "defenders of the faith" and hold contemporary kilt wearers as beneath their contempt because they aren't wearing "real" kilts?
