I think it goes to who we are as well.

Wether we are regemental or not while wearing the kilt is not just a reflection of our own confidence/ability to wear it, but we need to consider who we are, where we are, and the effects/respone around us.

This is not saying that it is obsene to go regemental, but wearing it in that manner can cause some to have problems, yes, it's their problem, but it can be your problem as well.

Because of who I am, I do not go out regemental, this is my choice, because I determine it is not something that is that important, and I don't need to cause problems. This is currently why I have not worn my kilt to a church service as yet. They do see me in the kilt in other situations, and it will be worn to a service eventually, but it is not necessary to push it.

These guys in loincloths were protesting, they were out for the shock factor. Just as political protestors walk NYC streets in the buff, they wanted the press. They also knew what the response would most likely be.

As we have discussed before, the motivation behind wearing the garment should be considered, as well as what was being worn (or what was not!).
Just as the students in NJ were protesting - trying to make a point - it is less an issue of wearing a MUG, and more the intent of the protest.

I agree with their protest, and think that they could have gone about it differently, but the negetive information that was passed through the press reflected on MUG wearers.

The loincloth wearers got what they probably expected. They got the press they wanted. Hopefully the "exposure" receives a positive end result.
