Lowland/Scotch-Irish/American Colonists vs. Highlanders.

[Jock Scot]

Wearing the kilt seems natural for a Scotsman (highlander or lowlander) but only a few of us can don a Quaker hat with ease.

You must be joking! Its only in very recent times----the latter part of my lifetime----- has the kilt been accepted by some Lowland Scots. There are still places in the Lowlands where the kilt is regarded with vicious scorn.

I kid you not.

We in the Highlands often have considerable difficulty to this day, in listening to Lowlanders claiming the kilt as theirs and giving out kilt attire advice----often incorrect------ without a rather cynical smile at best and not a little disbelief!
