You know, you can learn something from looking at the structure of this forum.
There are a dozen sub-forums about "tradtitional" kilts, or at the least, tartan kilts that maintain some significant ties with the more-or-less traditional attire of Scotland. We debate, ad infinitum, whether the color of ones flashes must coordinate with one of the contrasting stripes of your tartan... or what Lord Mumphry wore at the Cotillion in 1919, or whether someone will go ballistic and stone you if you wear their tartan, Oh. My Lord. We have a bazillion threads about how the traditional tartan kilt evolved, whether you can wear wool while throwing at the Games, what the appropriate color of belt would be for a Jacobite-era kilt and so on.
Then there's the "contemporary kilt forum".
None of that happens there, in that single sub-forum. Why? Why don't we discuss the myriad minutiae of contemporary kilts, ad infinitum such that the sub-forum spawns nineteen sub-sub-fora? Why?
Because you strap it on, you wear it and you go about your business. That's it. There are no rules or even guidelines to break.
So do that. Strap it on. Wear it. Go about your business. Carry on.

Ah. . .well. . .there you go.
Strapping it on. Wearing it. Going on about my business. Carrying on.
Thank you. I shall endeavour not to waste anyone's time any more with such inane, repeated questions.
