What's the story on the huge hairy sporrans

[CMcG]

For me, a huge hairy sporran has a special place in my Highland wardrobe. As far as decoration goes, it works nicely with 'louder' evening wear. As far as obscuring goes, there is plenty of tartan to go around when a hair sporran is worn with a tartan vest!

Here's mine:

"My sporran is bigger and hairier than your sporran"

So does this mean that Scottish men look over the urinal stall dividers to compare hairy sporrans, Indeed now...

This one broke in rather like a baseball glove, and has plenty enough room to fit even my HUGE wallet. I'd reccomend one of these every day of the week, and twice on Sunday, Father.
The sporran is modest, yes.

Yep. I've frequently suspected that these flashy, huge, hairy sporrans that come down to the selvage of the kilt, along with the full mask deals w/bottom jaw and snarling teeth, were often an attempt at some kind of... compensation.

And it doesn't help when certain hair sporran (or tassel) styles come with monikers such as the "swinging six".

Oooohhhh, the HUMANITY!!! :blimp:



NOTE: I have absolutely nothing against hair or mask sporrans... I'd very much like both before I die, actually... but I couldn't pass up this opportunity.
