Hello Kelly... I wonder if you might be so kind as to clarify the above for me. Is the kilt that you wear a "gentlemans cut"?? ie. a "5 to 8 yards, knee length, front apron fringe on the right " kilt.? If so, do you consider that you're slightly "crossing" the line in any way? If not, are we men "crossing" the line in womens eyes? I know women, esp. younger women, can get away with alot fashion wise and nobody cares. With the exception of the very few of us, 99.99% of the population woudn't know or care if a women wears a mans kilt. We men aren't quite so liberated... We have to be careful with the non-bifurcated options we have. And many of us cling to the details in order to ensure that there is no confusion in the matter. (Even that makes no difference to the diehard redneck!) The question isn't about fashion freedom and is not meant to be controversial by any means. I'm really just trying to understand all of this from a female perspective,... that is, other than what I'm already familiar with at home.
