Reason not to wear a kilt - tounge in cheek

**Riverkilt** · 4th August 12, 10:07 AM

I gotta pass on this thread....I really really do.....

It is heartening to hear that nudist men are finally beginning to embrace kilts - a great way to preserve their FREEDOM when not in a nudist venue.

Someday, a wise kiltmaker will advertise in the nudist media and get rich.

'nuff said.

At least three kilties in this vid, and one of them wins, taking the bow from the bull's head.

There is one reason to not wear a kilt, that is to a non- Scot/Celt wedding, the day belongs to the bride, it is tacky to show up the bride.

Certainly one does not want to show up the bride or the groom, but a kilt worn without all the bells and whistles (no waistcoat, no fly plaid) is quite acceptable in most circumstances – unless, of course, the family of either bride or groom are irredeemable Sassenachs.
Regards,
Mike

Sassenachs.

I can't wear a kilt at work. NFPA-70E says that specific (and also arc/flash rated) clothing must be worn during electrical work. All pants and no allowance for kilts or skirts for either gender. Safety first.

DRAT! I was hoping someone would ask and I wouldn't have to look it up....

Great catch Taj - Most of my life I worked around machinery where loose clothing was a hazard - same proscription.
I also worked in the Nuclear radiation field where entry into contaminated areas with anti-contamination clothing was required. No proscription, but getting into the clothes required removal of the kilts and skirts. Several times a day - just easier to wear p**ts or shorts.

One reason " Not to wear a kilt " could be -if you are going to a Kilt addicts meeting,
It might not be a good idea to show up in one , as you may be robbed . lol
Just saying - I would not go to a AA meeting with a beer ,right
