Identity in the Scottish Diaspora

[neloon]

So, “All this banter about kilts and tartan and history is fine and dandy, but that’s not the ‘real Scotland of today’.”

This is a kilt forum.

I can see your point but this thread is about the Scottish diaspora - not the "kilt diaspora". Of course the site title does nothing to resolve the confusion (even though we now seem to have discovered that it really means something like " X marks the descendant of at least one Scot"). So is the Scottish diaspora interested only in the paraphernalia of Scottishness and not the ‘real Scotland of today’?
