employers encouraging kilt wearing?

[GTRMAN]

In that light I would THINK that a kilt is a wrap-around skirt for men but I could be wrong....

You would be correct.

So, kilts are skirts when they can be made to fit dress codes. Otherwise, calling a Kilt a skirt is a beating offence?

So a kilt is a a skirt ONLY when it has to be !

Yes, as it turns out the kilt is a very versatile garment. It can change its characteristics depending upon the circumstances.

As far as I am concerned, calling the kilt a skirt is sort of like calling a Lamborghini a car. I mean sure, you can drive around in a Lamborghini and you can haul groceries....but it is so much MORE!

Anyway, I thought I heard somewhere that a company had a "gender neutral" dress code and the final ruling from HR was that men wearing kilts would be too "distracting" in the workplace. I can't see it being any more distracting than some of the short skirts I see the women wearing....but whatever....

That was my manager's rationale for allowing the male staff, me, to wear the kilt on Friday.
