    I don't know about the tradition thing. I am such a conglomoration of northern european white boy that while I can probably claim scottish blood, I can't even begin to say how much or where it is.

    I really don't know why I like wearing a kilt so much. I won't even pretend I don't like the attention, particularly from women.

    Likewise, I won't even pretend I don't feel just a little bit smug when some other guy says "You know, I've always thought about buying a kilt but..."

    The flip side is it's also fun when another potential kiltbrother says "I want to buy a kilt." and starts asking questions about mine.

    I like to pretend I'm just a little like Lazarus Long.

    I just like wearing my kilts.

    Agreement

    I too like the whole "dressing up" aspect of the kilt. It's also fun to wear and I do indeed get noticed more kilted than not.
    I like my kilts but I also like my jeans. Rumbling around railyards and such in Fort Worth last week would've been ackward in a kilt, in jeans I was passed off as average and of no consequence (and darned near invisible - while carrying a $1200 camera under my jacket ...)
    To each their place.

    Wink

    The whole back and forth, right and wrong, where do I fit in, sure can make you sick though.
