Odd Questions and Interesing Comments

Well, if it weren't someone who couldn't even bother to dress herself, I would have. But nothing says "I'm too lazy and undignified even to dress myself" like going out in public in your night clothes. And then to the nerve to actually say something to someone else?

I hear you loud and clear. For those of us in the states, am sure you have seen the commercial that advertises the "pajama jeans" to women as day wear. A similar product for men is sure to follow. Have you ever seen a commercial advertising kilts on American television?
Kilt wearing is seen as a radical dress choice and not the norm for men any where other than the highland games and rennasance festivals every spring. The paradigm of cultural norms for casual dress have shifted dramatically. In that respect, wearing pajamas in public is now and has been the norm for several years. Not a great idea and not because of common sense and functionality, but because some "fashion designer" has decided it should be.
It is our own decision to act or react as we see fit, but none the less the decision and the impression we leave is our own also. I just choose to be on the side of civility and class (by my personal estimate) more often than not. Am not always successful in that attempt.
I am waiting to see how the perception of kilts (at least in the states) changes when some pop or hip hop artist of public significance/fascination i.e. Lady GaGa (Note: Not ARTISTIC signigance) decides wearing a kilt would be cool. I know lots of local and regional bands wear kilts often when performing.
