Practical Kilt
A friend of mine recently wrote a short article regarding things he believes. It was a good article, but mostly political and not appropriate for this site.
However, he had a bunch of one-liners about things he believes, and I thought this one was great:
Call me a romantic, but I think the kilt is the greatest garment ever invented for ventilation, urination or fornication.
Can't argue with that!

I don't think any lady who reads that will call him a "romantic," but he does have a point. I would suggest that's more practical than romantic.

As would be a Scottish garment... but the romantic ain't too far behind!

I found his blog. True, a little political but he makes a few good points. I agree that it isn't romantic but does lean to the practical side. Thanks for the quote!

A habit's not a Kilt, it doesn't have pleats at the back.
