Well.... at least they don't have to smooth out their pleats every time they sit down?
That is the opnly thing I can think of.... other than that, some decent advice for us newbies... although I get much of my etiquette from here and USA Kilts.
Never run or do jumping jacks while wearing a heavy sporran

On the positive side at least the basting stitches were removed!

The caption is Cape Town, South Africa. South of the equator they go the other way around, like when flushing toilets, right?

To be fair, the actual information in the article is decent, albeit VERY condensed and simplified.

The title of the article is "The Dos and Don'ts of Wearing a Kilt". I'm pretty sure the photo is intentionally showing a "Don't".

It’s possible that the person who published the article chose the photo without any input from the author. I’ve heard of authors online having inappropriate (and sometimes unintentionally offensive) photos placed into their articles without their knowledge by editors and finding out about it after an outcry.
