kilts in Scotland

[macwilkin]

Good; then they can't complain when others take up what they have tossed aside.

I remember St Francis of Assisi once predicted in the thirteenth cent. ; " the evil day will eventually come when priests & nuns will cast aside their Habit with contempt and dress as the Worldling..but then the Worlding will take up the Habit and hold it in reverence until the darkness passes".
Maybe the same could apply to the Kilt? (Prediction of "St." William Wallace???)

The ones who don't wear kilts regularly are probably exactly the ones who would object.

So then all of us who choose not to wear our kilts everyday are "tossing aside" the kilt?

Gents, different horses for courses. If the majority of Scots choose not to wear their kilts everyday, but save them for "special occasions", then that's their right to do so. I generally follow their example.

Some folks choose to wear their kilts everyday -- I'm very supportive of that choice. But not choosing to wear a kilt everyday does not make you less of a kiltie. This attitude goes against the very arguement that some make for a larger acceptance of kilt-wearing by the general public.

Sorry for being on the this morning.
