This comes up every now and then and some get upset about it, but how often do we see...and will ever see...a lassie wear a traditional? Hardly ever!
So it's basicly not an issue....chill pill time
I'm not talking about $600+ tanks, but we have talked before on this forum how, many of us hope to never see men's kilts as an off the rack item at Walmart. But general wear by women might lead to this, and that is where the "fear" I was talking about comes into play. I've rethought my original stand against women wearing kilts (I even gave my daughter one, that she has yet to wear) and I have no objection to a few women wearing them, especially the fine ladies here on this board. However, I definitely don't want to walk into Walmart and see a rack of kilts in the women's wear section, especially if I am wearing one.
